Invitation to the Power of 8


The Power of 8 is a discovery of Lynne McTaggart. The central idea is that a group of, ideally, eight people gathers together with the intention of healing. 


One of that group will be the recipient of the healing, and will sit in the middle of a circle formed by the remaining seven. It is not only the recipient who will benefit from these healing sessions. The beauty of Power of 8 is that all involved will feel the effect. As the group comes together, it works to heal itself and improve each member’s sense of well being..


Ced Jackson and others have been holding virtual Power of 8 sessions (through Zoom) for some years, with remarkable success. After a brief meditation, the group will focus its individual and collective intention upon the healing of a chosen recipient, usually for twelve minutes of silent mediation. After healing, group members, including the recipient, are free to report their experiences, which are often vivid and emotionally moving, to the group. 


The results have been remarkably successful, with most recipients reporting an immediate alleviation of their troubling symptoms, as well as a general feeling of contentment and well being. The alleviation of symptoms typically continues for some days after the healing session, and indeed may be permanent.


The group does not always consist of eight people, and the number present does not seem to affect the effectiveness of the healing process. 


We would therefore very much welcome new members to our group. We meet via Zoom on Thursdays at 5.30pm. If you would like to join, or simply to know more, then please contact me, Andrew Edgar, at andrewRedgar@gmail.com, and I will be happy to help, and send you the Zoom link to our next meeting.

Chris Tonge considers

the best way to work with earth energy lines


Earth energy lines and how best to work with them?

Chris says... I am part of the international meditation groups hosted by Tony Clarkson and his colleagues at the Sanctuary of Healing at Langho in Lancashire. For the past few months, Tony and trance medium Michael Reccia have been producing videos in which they provide answers to questions on spiritual topics that have been sent in. The videos are very interesting and can be found at: 


https://www.worldmeditationalliance.org/media/  


I sent in a question asking about the true nature of earth energy lines and how we can best work with them. I got a surprising answer. As I don't think I will be able to screen-share the video answer at our meeting here is a link to the 8 minute video:   


https://www.worldmeditationalliance.org/gpb_portfolio/qa-insights-do-you-think-leylines-are-conscious/   


I’ve also provided a transcript of the video. 

The answer has helped me appreciate the relationship between energy lines and nature spirits or Devas. After discussing the video, I’d like to share my exploration of Devas and other elementals, and hopefully that will lead to an interesting discussion on how we dowse and use earth energies in the future. 


Please contact Kate Smart for further details.


Apologies this email is slightly earlier than usual landing in your inbox because I am going on holiday tomorrow. In the meantime have a good couple of weeks and I hope to have time just after I get back to send you a brief reminder!

Please tell others about our community

If you know someone that might enjoy our discussions and who might like to share their insights with our group then please tell them about the SSIG. I'd be happy to send them the Zoom link and welcome them to our group. At some point in our spiritual development we know the time is right to be with other people and share our experiences. I compare this process to nurturing a seedling inside us from the first two leaves bravely showing above the soil surface. Cultivating our awareness and insight, among friends, is an expanding and rewarding part of our journey. Through listening to discussion we can feel what resonates with us and by sharing we can learn so much about ourselves. We may be experiencing a physical existence but we can sense and intuit so much more!

Love and light

Kate Smart
