Words carry power.
They can help, heal, hinder, hurt, harm, humiliate… or humble. ✨
— Berg
There are energy scales for words. Not surprisingly, words like love and gratitude are on the high-frequency end and create. Whereas shame and guilt are in the low end and destroy. Just like putting high-energy food (whole foods minus preservatives calories and GMOs) into our mouth creates quality, we need to put quality words into our life.
When my family was young, we ran across the book “The Hidden Messages of Water’ By Masaru Emoto. It’s a book about experiments with ice crystals from water that was exposed to different words and the dramatic visual effect the words have on the molecular structure of the water. Think about it, humans are 70% water. How do our thoughts, words, and self-talk affect our physiology? We did experiments in our home and planted seeds labeled with words. It was amazing to see seeds flourish and grow with the word LOVE, while seeds labeled with HATE would fail to grow.
It’s such a powerful principle for our health to be filled with good words and thoughts but it is incredibly difficult.
Psalm 19:14 “Let the words of my mouth and the meditations of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, oh Lord, my strength and my Redeemer.”
It’s only through God and the power of the Holy Spirit we can be optimistic and filled with the creative power that can heal us, lighten another’s load, and brighten their day.
At the beginning of every year, my family and the office challenges each other to chose one word that resonates with our desire for growth and transformation. Each of us has a story as to why that word was chosen. The word often comes after lots of prayer and contemplation and then hits like a lightning bolt of inspiration and you know it’s yours.
We invite you to join us. Choose a word that challenges you to grow and transform into your best self. It may be THE healthiest thing you do. ✨
👇 Comment below if you’ve chosen a word before — or share the word you’re choosing for this year.
