		<description>lol sarah miller, quite a long post considering you missed the point of this completely.... bottled water is bullshit, my TAP WATER comes from an vast ancient aquifer located underground, it&#039;s purified using highly funded state-of-the-art techniques, it makes it&#039;s way through a series of complex copper and pvc tubing, and is delivered directly to my sink! best of all i get to choose what kind of container to put it in and i can even pick the temperature! it always tastes like water too! incredible!</description>

		<description>Wow.  After all of my internet surfing and blog posts, I finally came across a product that caught my attention. Just yesterday, I was browsing the bottled water section at Whole Foods when I came across a new brand with a really cool looking logo and labels that read “Joy”, “Peace”, “Health”, and “Prosperity” featuring instructions to visualize this intent while drinking the contents.  Intrigued, I bought some and brought it home.   It tasted fresher and cleaner than other waters - and hopefully my chosen intent (Prosperity, of course), will manifest. 

Now, my curiousity was piqued even more so I chose to visit the company website.  H2Om has a very interesting story to tell.  The water itself comes from a natural spring water source in San Diego, from the 420,000 acre Cleveland National Forest.  Bedrock mortars and metates indicate that Native Americans have enjoyed this spring for over 14,000 years - and it is filtered to a depth of 300 feet before rising to the surface through the hardened granite. The company then treats it with UV light, submicron filters it, and cleanses it with Ozone which is MUCH more efficient than chlorine at removing bacteria.  The water is then treated with audio frequencies, sounds, music,color and light according to its intended purpose.  

Scientific studies have shown that water is impressionable, and can hold intent or thought frequencies.  As our bodies are 90% water, it makes sense to me that drinking this kind of water could have a positive impact. 

Also from the company website:

“A portion of our proceeds will benefit the International Water for Life Foundation, the Love Planet Foundation, an environmental education organization dedicated to the protection of the planet for future generations.”

Awesome!   And it was reasonably priced to boot.

It is refreshing to see that this Southern California company is leading the way and setting new standards in the bottled water industry while simultaneously inspiring people to participate in creating a better world by focusing their thoughts on creating positive intentions and eco awareness.  So if you haven’t gone to the site while reading this, here is a rundown of H2Om Water with Intention.

What is H2Om?
H2Om is a natural spring water, no flavors or additives, bottled in a BPA-free PET1 bottle which is 100% recyclable. The positive themed labels are designed be used as a means to direct your focus towards creating intention.  They serve as a reminder to activate your attention and create positive energy throughout your day. 
H2Om’s commitment to you and the planet. First and foremost, H2Om has sourced the cleanest, most pure, high mountain spring water. (see my description above) The water emanates from a 4000 ft elevation and is naturally filtered through a granadorite rock formation. It is then brought down the mountain in a stainless steel transport vehicle, and ecologically filtered by UV light, sub micron filtration and then ozonated with Oxygen 3, the most healthy and natural way to clean water.  

But wait… what about the plastic bottles?   H2om’s BPA-free plastic bottle resin molds are manufactured in an eco-friendly hydro powered plant in Costa Rica, and the bottles are made locally in the US at their Los Angeles bottling plant. H2Om bottles contain no harmful chemicals that could leach into the water and are guaranteed to be Bisphenol-A and Phlalate free. The bottles are 100% recyclable, including the polypropolene labels. H2Om, in collaboration with it’s bottle manufacturer, is now testing the stability of an exciting new organic mineral that will be added to the plastic resin to break it down into nothing but water and oxygen after six months in the outdoor sunlight (coming soon). This will mean, whether in the ocean or landfill, the bottle will not contaminate or harm the environment.  H2Om’s mission for sustainability is also represented by route managed deliveries, using tree free and 100% recycled papers and products, and having virtual offices, which are more energy efficient. 

What about carbon emissions? In early 2007 H2Om became partners with CarbonFund.org. and was featured as one of their top 20 companies creating positive change on the planet while offsetting their entire carbon footprint.  For more information on retail outlets or to order online visit http://www.H2OmWater.com

I am sort of a bottled water snob, but I do have this to say is, “I think this is a great product. The water tastes clean and pure. I actually followed the instructions and found some benefit to it.  I also think it’s cool that the power of my purchase created some good on the planet, besides the good it did for me. Too bad there are not more companies following H2Om’s lead to educate, get people involved and be a part of creating something positive on the planet”

Try it out next time you’re in Whole Foods or your favorite health food market.</description>

		<description>Idiot food.  Mind you the marketing dude is in fact an absolute genius.  Keep in mind the fact that it is his job to sell WATER (not the easiest thing to sell) and as much of it as possible.  If your gonna take someones money, at least take it from the crackpot nutjobs who don&#039;t deserve it in the first place.  And for that, I applaud the man for his instinctive recognition of the idiot niche.  Bravo.</description>

		<description>This all started with that scam artist, Masaru Emoto. Ever since he said he can &quot;charge&quot; water with emotion, and provided many hand-picked photos of ice crystals to match his claims, people have been touting his work as evidence that foo-foo hippy nonsense is real. I swear, if we don&#039;t do ourselves in by war, we&#039;ll be doomed by our own stupidity. I hope everyone who drinks this mind-job gets a serious case of giardia. Can you taste the love now, starshine?

		<description>Well at least this pitch is not like most: &quot;You are stupid - buy our product or remain stupid.&quot;  Despite all the smoke blown up the public butt and all the whining about participation awards and coddling, most people in this society must have very low self esteem - or why do these ads work?  I actively avoid advertising for this very reason.  I don&#039;t need anyone telling me I&#039;m stupid when I already live in a country with an idiot as President.</description>
