In the second part of our dive into the power of collective intention, this week we explore some of the science behind what might be going on when we hold an intention together. Demystifying terms and concepts such as wave-particle duality and quantum entanglement, and drawing on the groundbreaking work of organizations such as the HeartMath Institute and the Transcendental Meditation Movement, we seek to explain the quantum physics and the mysteries behind such phenomena as collective effervescence and entrainment.

In the second part of our dive into the power of collective intention, this week we explore some of the science behind what might be going on when we hold an intention together. Demystifying terms and concepts such as wave-particle duality and quantum entanglement, and drawing on the groundbreaking work of organizations such as the HeartMath Institute and the Transcendental Meditation Movement, we seek to explain the quantum physics and the mysteries behind such phenomena as collective effervescence and entrainment. We also discuss the Maharishi Effect, the role of heart-brain coherence, and spotlight important new research being undertaken into the impact of collective intention on peaceful and free elections worldwide.
Suggested intention focus for this week
The HeartMath Institute suggests that we each have an “energetic responsibility,” the duty we each have to recognize that our thoughts, attitudes, and emotions emit energies that impact not only ourselves, but others around us, and to consciously choosing positive emotions like appreciation, care, and love.
As we open ourselves to the mysteries and wonder of quantum science, and become exciting at the new discoveries that are enhancing human understanding, let us redouble our belief in the power of intention and intercession, committing ourselves to take our own energetic responsibility seriously. For our specific focus for intention this week, we suggest:
We will that each of us in the Impact! community will be mindful of our energetic power and exercise responsibility for this in all circumstances.
Please join us in holding this.
