In this episode, we dive deep into the fundamental practice of holding or sending intention, a topic dear to all of us at Impact! We explore the belief that collective intention is more powerful than individual effort, and how our combined energy can lead to exponential impact. This is the first of a two parts series. In part 2, we'll delve into the science and research behind the power of collective intention. In this episode, we reflect upon the work of researchers like Lynn McTaggart, the HeartMath Institute, and the Institute of Noetic Sciences, among others, who have studied the transformative effects of group intention. We also touch on the significance of lovingkindness, altruism, and the spiritual insights from various faith traditions that support the power of collective effort. Suggested intention focus: Since we’ve focused very much on how we are more powerful together this week, we suggest holding as our intention for the coming week: We will, that all who share intentions in our Impact! community will feel more incentivised, engaged and excited by knowing that in holding shared intentions, we are more powerful together. Please join us in holding this. And please do join us in sharing your thoughts and questions on this topic in the Facebook group– let’s get some discussion going and sharing some ideas!
