The Power of a Shared Goal

April 5, 2020

If these circumstances teach us anything, it is the power of collective intention; a belief or desire shared by a great number of people manifests faster than anything else. The best example I have of this is during Ramadan, throughout the holy month we come together with a shared goal, and you can feel the shift in energy as soon as you step inside of the Mosque. The power of a prayer and intention never fails but to succeed, and when they are shared between us they double in strength.

The worldly events over the past few months have shaken us all, we are consistently bombarded with messages and negativity. As a small business owner, I have been repeatedly told that we are the most at risk and will feel the greatest hit, and like many in my position I felt scared. It is very easy to get into a place of victim consciousness and feel sorry for ourselves, but we must remember that we have the ability to control our mindset.

We have two choices, we can either see ourselves as the victims of circumstance or we can decide to become the solution.

Everyone will feel uncertain or scared at times, we need to give ourselves the permission to feel and accept our emotions. Remember that we cannot control everything, and that Allah is protecting us. Press the pause button, acknowledge how you feel and have faith.

The Hundred Wellness Centre team and I are here to help in any way we can. Our collective vision is to be of service to our community and to create a positive impact with the highest level of care. As we enter a new phase for the centre, we will focus on educating our family and friends with the tools to navigate this situation.

“Every storm runs out of rain. No matter how dull or seemingly unpromising life is right now, it’s going to change. But you have to keep working.”

Let’s put our intentions and prayers together to heal our planet.

With love,
