Many times I’ve been asked why I enjoy surfing, and all too often in explanation, I feel like I am trying to whistle happy birthday after eating a dry brick of Weetbix. “For sure ions are an interesting aspect. One of my favourite shapers Lampeez sums up this ions story nicely. Think about your closed car, your office, or life in a closed heated flat in the UK. A high concentration of positive ions, on the other hand, can create a headache, a feeling of uneasiness and nausea.” And guess where you find them? – In air-conditioned offices and overcrowded rooms.

I begin to wonder if there may be some molecule of truth in Emoto’s theory when medical research supports the positive effect of negative ions. Wonko is worth a Google if you are a reader and looking for entertainment. ![]() ![]() Emoto reminds me of the Douglas Adams character Wonko The Sane from his book So Long and Thanks for All the Fish. Goldacre does indeed trash homoeopathy, but I am starting to wonder if there might not be more to H2O than first meets the eye.Įmoto’s book Messages From Water is very much on the outside fringe of sanity. Unsurprisingly Emoto is not much corroborated and I am sure Bad Science author Ben Goldacre would have a field day stamping all over Emoto, but here is another thing – homoeopathy leans along similar lines. “Human consciousness has an effect on the molecular structure of water” – this is the hypothesis from late, some say uber- nutty, Japanese author, researcher and photographer, Masaru Emoto.
