Global Healing Response: Air
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.
Please join us in holding this.
