In this age, we are acutely aware of the physical pollution in our foods. With the spinach scare and a peanut butter scare, we are on guard and most likely heading to our whole foods store instead of the local chain store market. But what about the pollution that you can not see, smell or taste? What about energetic pollution?

I'm not talking about radiation (although many foods are irradiated), but about the energy that is impressed on to food and liquid as it is passed from person to person along the chain, from the growing to the distribution of a product. Each step along the way, people unknowingly impart their own energetic to the food as it passes their hands or their attention. If they happen to be in a negative energy pattern, that gets attached to the food or liquid. Then you eat or drink it and receive that energy. That's why food made with love is still the best food.

This may not make you ill right away but, just like prolonged exposure to anything, it takes its toll. There are two major ways to head this off. One is to keep your own vibration strong through meditation, self-knowledge, releasing fear, deep breathing and having more contact with nature. The other way is to bless your food and water.

All things are responsive to thought, emotion and words because everything is energy and intention. Dr. Emoto, a forward thinking Japanese scientist, has done experiments with water proving this. He would take a bit of water, say a word or phrase (or tape a word or phrase on the bottle) and flash freeze it. Then, looking with a special microscope, he examines the water crystals and sees that they change with each expression. Positive expressions create beautiful formations. Negative expressions create deformed structures. Since we are mostly created of water, you can get the idea of what this is doing to your own cell structure.

I have learned from an Ascended Master teacher that we can use our power of intention to invoke the Divine and cleans our food or water of negative vibration. I received this information from an entity named Kwan Yin, known as a Divine Mother energy. I will give you the blessing as given to me:

With these hands
With this heart
And with the pure intention of God
This food/water is blessed
Removing and transmuting all impurity
Into the light forever.

Amen / Om / Peace
(Close any way you want to)

You can also add: Bless this water, bless the source, and bless all water in the world.

Now take about 30 seconds, or however long feels appropriate, and give gratitude for this which you are about to receive. Kwan Yin says to hold it in your hands like you would hold a newborn baby, feeling much love for it. Thank the earth for providing this and give thanks in general to all who have made this available to you.

While this will still not delete or nullify any physical pollutants, it will at least relieve your sustenance from any negative energy which it may have carried up to this point -- in accordance with your belief system.

Saying this blessing will bring your consciousness into a stream that will actually bring into your life not only food and water that is more pure, but will bring clarity to your energy too, as the more we focus on purity, the more it manifests in our life as a whole. Blessings and gratitude are another vehicle to bring our attention to the fact that all things are related and that by blessing one thing, we bring the Divine into all aspects of our life.
