  • Paradise Lost or Gained: Dealing with Disappointment or Joy in the Wake of the US Elections

    Paradise Lost or Gained: Dealing with Disappointment or Joy in the Wake of the US Elections
    2024/11/07
    In this week's episode, as the results of the US elections become known, we focus on contrasting themes of disappointment and joy, and how to deal with these in an environment that has been especially polarized. As both US citizens and others process the results, we discuss how individuals on both sides can find peace and unity through compassion and understanding, and offer practical suggestions for dealing both with fear, disappointment and anxiety, and for handling joy and celebration with equanimity and empathy for supporters of a losing side. We reflect on the vision of a harmonious society, drawing inspiration from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s concept of a "Beloved Community," in which justice, equality, and love for all humanity prevail. We ask whether this is a Utopian ideal or one that can be put into practice to bridge divides and foster mutual respect in a polarized world? Crucially, in the days following the vote, we look at where our intentions and prayers might now be focused. Whether you are celebrating or mourning, this episode provides guidance on navigating emotions with grace, encouraging a collective intention towards healing and unity. Tune in and discover how we can each contribute to a more harmonious world, while perhaps receiving some comfort and hope if you are among those now feeling despondent. Suggested Intention Focus for this Week: This week, as the US comes to terms with the election of Donald Trump for a second term as its President, following a heavily contested election, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that all US citizens will be moved by compassion to respect and love their fellow countryfolk, even though they may dislike their politics, words and actions.

  • Self-Caring During Challenging Times

    Self-Caring During Challenging Times
    2024/11/01
    This week we delve into the crucial topic of self-care amidst the intense energy surrounding the upcoming U.S. presidential election. With the election described as one of the most pivotal in modern times, we explore the emotional toll it may take on individuals and communities, emphasizing the importance of maintaining peaceable relations and not being triggered by often polar opposite views. The episode explores how intention, prayer, and meditation can impact us energetically, highlighting the necessity of releasing energies that don't serve us. We discuss the power of the breath in maintaining calm, the significance of the torus field as a protective energy barrier, and the transformative practice of Tonglen for cultivating compassion. We suggest practical techniques for managing energy and stress, including mindfulness, visualization, and connecting with one's guardian angels. Suggested Intention Focus for this week: This week, as we recognise the potential for becoming uncentred, agitated or ill at ease during an especially tense time for millions of people across the US, we suggest holding as our main intention a personal resolve: I resolve that, in unity with others who hold intentions with me, I will take time to release any energy that doesn’t serve me after holding intention, and not neglect to attend to my own self-care. Please join us in holding this. Legacy Labyrinth Project US election eve labyrinth walk: https://legacylabyrinthproject.kindful.com/register/election-eve-walk-2024 Listen to Ellen’s conversation with Brother Dave in our episode ‘How to be Mindful when Bad Things Happen–Brother Dave’: https://www.heartfulimpact.com/e/how-to-be-mindful-when-bad-things-happen%e2%80%93brother-dave/ A possible prayer for self-caring following intention sending: Thank you (Universe/Spirit/God) for filling my heart with lovingkindness during this practice. Now, please release me from me anything that will not benefit me, taking from me any draining, negative or harmful energy that may have come to me during this practice. Thank you. I love you. Breathing cycle intentions: Breathing in, I invite lovingkindness and pure, divine light energy to fill me. Breathing out, I send [my intention or lovingkindness] to [the person, people, or whoever or whatever is the focus of my intention] (during intention holding) Breathing out, I release all that doesn’t now serve me (after intention holding).

  • Global Healing Response: Air

    Global Healing Response: Air
    2024/10/24
    In this episode, as Global Healing Response turns its attention to the element of Air, we focus on the crucial significance of air in sustaining life on Earth. Air's role in supporting life goes far beyond respiration. It influences the water cycle, weather systems, and plant reproduction, while also playing a critical part in climate regulation and photosynthesis. We explore how air quality impacts human health and well-being, contributing to respiratory and cardiovascular issues and even affecting mental health. We examine the disproportionate effects of air pollution on vulnerable communities and consider where we might offer our collective intentions and prayers in such areas as appealing for governmental responsibility, individual mindfulness, and innovative solutions to reduce carbon emissions and harness wind energy. Suggested Intention Focus for this week: This week, as we consider the many ways all life on Earth is dependent on air, we suggest holding as our main intention: We will that all of humanity will be made aware of and be moved to responsible action in how we contribute to influencing the quality and composition of our planet’s atmosphere.
