Blue Solar Water - Weighing the Ancient Practice Against Modern Science

It is my habit to always seek the original information and synthesize various sources to gain a multidimensional perspective and understand everything as accurately as possible.
While researching and participating in some community activities related to mental health, people shared information about a drink called “Blue Solar Water.”
Blue Solar Water (Thái Dương Lam Thủy) means blue solar-energized water. It is a cleansing tool used in the practice of Ho’oponopono. This is an ancient Hawaiian practice focused on self-healing and transformation, as well as the healing and reconciliation of relationships. It comprises four steps: remorse, forgiveness, gratitude, and love.
Practitioners of Ho’oponopono believe that the blue color of the water symbolically restores balance, helping to remove negative thoughts and emotions from the body and mind, thereby improving mental clarity, emotional stability, and physical health. Following this belief, they place water into a cobalt blue glass bottle, seal it tightly with a wooden lid, and expose it to direct sunlight outdoors for about 60 minutes.
According to the article “Ho’oponopono: To Make Things Right” in Psychology Today, this ancient practice can also bring certain mental benefits which, according to Alternative Medicine, could be categorized as Mind-Body Therapy. However, there is still insufficient scientific basis to confirm the “miraculous” benefits as popularized through folklore.
Furthermore, in science, there is the term pseudoscience, especially prevalent in the healthcare sector, where pseudoscientific activities create medical interventions that are ineffective and sometimes dangerous during the treatment process. We need to clearly distinguish between Medical Science and Pseudoscience when applying methods to our proactive healthcare.
