Aquamantra seeks to provide customers with great tasting water and inspire them to improve the quality of their lives through the power of positive thinking. Inspired by the 2004 film What the Bleep Do We Know and Dr. Masaru Emoto’s book Hidden Messages in Water, Aquamantra utilizes the theories of quantum mechanics, whereby positive thoughts are shown to influence the molecular structure of water, to make their water more refreshing for body, mind, and soul. Each bottle of Aquamantra premium Natural Spring Water features unique art work from local California artists and the mantra I am Loved, I am Grateful, I am Healthy, or I am Lucky to infuse the water with positive energies.
The values advanced by B Lab and B Corporations are ones that are important to us and also to our stakeholders. By becoming a B Corporation, we are better able to broadcast our commitment to those values and hopefully set an example of social and environmental responsibility in our community.
In February of 2007, Aquamantra won "The Best Tasting Bottled Water" in an International Bottled Water competion, out of 23 countries and over 50 other applicants. It is essential that our water be natural and taste good. The combination of the natural flavor and the energy delivered through the mantra, makes this water the best choice on the market and it is 100% natural; no chemicals, no sugar, no vitamins, no additives. Just water and thought, the two basic needs for survival.
The Change We Seek™
Aquamantra wants to provide a brand that will not just hydrate, but will engage and inspire their clients to create the reality they choose to live in.
• Their purpose is to inspire you to recite the mantras written on the bottles and affect change in the world around you; their unique bottle design was created to remind you to think, then drink. They'd like to think that if it takes you 10 sips to finish a bottle of water and you say I AM LOVED 10 times to yourself or out loud with a smile, this will affect your attitude, your mood, and the reaction of those around in your life.
• Their bottles are ENSO BOTTLES™ made from 100% Biodegradable, 100% Compostable and 100% Recyclable PET 1 (FDA APPROVED). Contrary to what the 'rumors' are about plastic leaching into your water bottle they now have proof from ENSO™ that this is not the case.
• Funds raised through the sale of Aquamantra water are donated to aid charities and foundations to assist with the management of international projects such as Nourish America, UNICEF, the Make a Wish Foundation, and Vitamin Angel Alliance. With every purchase of Aquamantra water you are giving back to the children who are our future and helping to make a difference in this planet we all share.
