DOUBT THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING? TRY DR. MASARU EMOTO’S RICE EXPERIMENT
Here at IITS, affirmations have kind of become a way of life. However, Japanese researcher and alternative healer Dr. Masaru Emoto is on a next level. His unusual rice experiment demonstrates the power of positive thinking. Just check out the video above. If you can look past the overly dramatic music and voice over, you'll be left with plenty of food for thought. I'm off to the supermarket to buy my bag of rice.

PENTATONIX TAKE ON BEYONCE... AND SUCCEED!
IITS is all about about championing originality, so cover versions normally get left on the shelf... but when you bring it like this acappella collective from Texas we can make an exception.
From start to finish, Pentatonix deliver a masterclass in tight harmonies and creative vocal arrangement. Queen Bey was suitably impressed judging by the post on her FB page and I'm sure you'll have to tip your hat to their homage. Hit us up with any suggestions for future Evolution sessions. Prince or MJ anyone?
Check out their YouTube channel and make sure you show 'em love @ptxofficial
