Dolphin energy - Live to Play

I watched the movie 'Free Willy 3' on television. Amazing animals - the Orcas. 'Orca' comes from the species name of Orcinus orca, meaning 'a kind of a whale', but this incredible mammal is better known as the 'Killer Whale'. Why is this so?

The apparency of living to play, with boundless energy and not a care in the world is characteristic of the whole family of whales and dolphins (cetacea).
If we could imitate their carefree attitude our lives would be more energised, contented and abundant. With summer upon us in the Southern hemisphere, it's time to enjoy the energizing and soothing quality of water.

Dolphins at Play

Dolphins even look like they are having fun, with wide grins on their faces. What's more, they communicate by 'singing' with whistles and clicks.

Some examples of the playful behaviour of whales, dolphins and killer whales are:

  • spy-hopping - hanging vertically in the water with the head partially above water
  • breaching - jumping clear of the water and landing on the back or side
  • lob-tailing - slapping the tail flukes on the surface of the water
  • pec-slapping - slapping a pectoral flipper on the surface of the water
  • dorsal fin slapping - slapping the dorsal fin on the top of the water
  • bow wave riding - swimming in the bow wave of the boat

Dolphins have lungs, and breathe air at the surface of the water through a single blowhole located near the top of the head. They need to breathe about every 2 minutes, but can hold their breath for several minutes. Their blow is a single, explosive cloud.

Be like whales and dolphins this summer, get into the water and play: try a few dolphin tricks and you will feel revitalised and energized

Why is Orca known as a Killer Whale?

The nickname, 'Killer Whale', is based upon this species' unique and awesome power and ability to kill (and sometimes not even eat), not only whales much larger than itself, but just about any species of marine mammal it desires, including, seals, sea lions, walruses, dolphins and porpoises.

Water Therapy
Water is a natural energy booster and a healing agent on the inside and the outside.

Drinking water saves lives.

I was on the staff of Anthony Robbins Mastery University where another staffer, a doctor, said he could improve or cure up to 90% of all the ailments suffered by his patients simply by getting them to drink more water.

A man who used water to heal with success is Dr Batmanghelidj, who carried out research into the benefits of water for 20 years. He says:

'My research revealed that unintentional dehydration produces stress, chronic pains and many degenerative diseases.'

'It is water that regulates all functions of the body including functions of solid matter. 75 % of our bodies are composed of water. The brain is 85% water. It is water that energizes and activates the solid matter. If you don’t take enough water, some functions of the body will suffer.' (Visit: http://www.watercure.com}

Six to eight glasses of filtered water daily will cleanse your system and contribute to your general health and well being. Don't wait until you are thirsty to drink. When you are dehydrated you lose your natural thirst. Drinking more will re-activate your thirst, which is a good thing.

What about Fluoride?

  • 'Fluoride disrupts the synthesis of collagen and leads to breakdown in the bone, tendon, skin, cartilage, lungs, trachea, and kidney.
  • It inhibits the formation of antibodies in the blood, which cause a disruptive effect on various tissues in the body, which then confuses the immune system and causes it to attack its own tissues
  • It increases the tumour growth and the general cancer rate; it has been linked to cancer, low IQ's in children, genetic disorders and muscle degeneration.
  • Many European countries banned fluoride from their water supply many years ago. http://better-back.com - http://www.mercola.com

Drink pure, filtered water.

Water Therapy on the Outside

Hydrotherapy, formerly called hydropathy, is probably the oldest form of medical treatment. It involves the use of water for soothing pains and treating diseases.

Although popular through the ages it was only this year that a survey of research in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases discussed the vast amount of high-quality studies showing the effectiveness of hydrotherapy. Some hydrotherapy uses heat and cold to bring about relief.

Do you own hydro-therapy by relaxing in a soothing bath, a pool or the ocean; try water aerobics for exercise, or water sports. (see my October Newsletter about water sports).

Neptune's Playground

Blue Planet in space like a clear crystal ball,
A beauteous bubble, so fresh and pristine,
The moon hanging close makes the tides rise and fall
And the ocean laps shores of land masses between.

The water seems pure as I look down from space,
And imagine the sea creatures swimming in peace.
Yet the murk that’s spewed out from the whole human race
Has transformed crystal liquid to thick oily grease.

Tall yachts moving freely with billowing sails
Cut paths through the waves as they race to the heads.
Beneath is the haven for dolphins and whales
Who wonder at rubbish that lies in their beds.

At times mighty oceans rise up on the land.
Before them strong buildings collapse with a crash.
King Neptune in fury is showing his hand
And saying ‘You take it. I’ll give back your trash.’

So love the great ocean, above and below:
Its coral, fish, lobster, sting ray – even shark.
Our water sport playground. It’s time now to know
We must keep it clean. Neptune’s ‘Wet ‘n Wild’ park.
