Immersive Prayer: Harnessing Intention to Heal the World

In this episode Ellen interviews Clive to celebrate the release of his new book, Immersive Prayer: The Power to Change Ourselves and Change our World, and explore how intention, interfaith teachings, and scientific research converge to deepen prayer and collective healing.

They discuss embodied practice over ritual, heart‑mind connection, practical tools for staying grounded, and the role of contemplative activism in our own spiritual journeys. Clive describes how prayer takes on a meaning closer to "living in Spirit" when we recognise and invite a partnership with the divinity within us, and touches on where prayer and intention holding come together. All-in-all, he suggests that holding intention–and praying–not only has impact on ourselves and others, but bring us closer on our spiritual paths to being fully connected with the Divine.
