In the mid-90s, Dr. Masaru Emoto conducted an experiment to prove water's "skill" to transport words' vibrations. The results were remarkable: he observed high-vibration words like love or gratitude formed beautiful patterns on frozen water and low-vibration words like war or hate did the opposite.
How do words affect a body that is 70% water, then?
In today's episode, in another soul-to-soul conversation, I invite you to reflect on the power of words, the ones we use to talk to ourselves, to others, about ourselves and others, and the ones we use to describe what happens in our lives.
Throughout this episode, you'll hear about language's impact on our thoughts and lives, relationships, and the reality we create for ourselves. You'll also hear about how to reframe the perception of adversity, and how handling life challenges with grace can create a more peaceful existence for us and those around us.
Additionally, you'll get tips and advice on how to treat yourself more gently and inspire others to do the same, make sense of the senseless, and much more.

A bit about Dr. Emoto's experiment (2:40)
Why we must set our words for success (7:10)
