| The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press An Important Study of Human Consciousness | While not every idea in this book is original, McTaggert, who is an award winning science journalist, gives us the philosophy and hard science beneath more popular metaphysical ideas. It is an in-depth study of how thoughts can be manifested and how consciousness ultimately creates reality.
McTaggert expertly focuses on quantum reality, non-local intelligence, mind-body healing, the oneness inherent in the fabric of the universe, and the kinds of meditation that yield results.
At the end of the book, the author provides intention exercises and offers several solid suggestions for "personal" intention experiments. These are designed to get your feet wet with small intentions, such as how to get your child to study or your dog to stop barking. There is also an invitation to join McTaggert's Group Intention Experiment, open to all serious readers.
The reader must be under no illusions, however: this book has many challenging sections and is heavily weighted toward in-depth explanations of dozens of experiments and theories, most of which are described in highly scientific terms. Some chapters are extremely dense. At other times, McTaggert connects more directly with the reader. She might have condensed her research a bit better for the average reader, but on balance, this book is a valuable study on exactly how the power of intention works (which other books only touch on) and how the reader can use this power for infinite improvement and the manifestation of desired intentions.
It's not a quick read, but it is highly recommended for those who are ready to look behind the curtain of pop metaphysics.
| | The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press Amazing book! | | I loved this book! Lynn is an excellent writer who takes complex scientific concepts and puts them into terms that are easily understood. Her Powering UP exercise works wonderfully. In addition you can join her community and be part of the many Intention Experiments that are in progress. If you have questions about The Secret , The Law of Attraction , this book will explain how it works and what is missing from the other books! This book and books by Gregg Braden are must reads for anyone who is looking to create change in their life. | | The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press Superb | | The Intention Experiment is a superb book for reinforcing the new consciousness. It is a wonderful combination of the science and the gut level experiential learning in our lives. Having read in the areas of quantum physics and the Law of Attraction for over thirty years, this book is right up there with Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Fred Alan Wolf, Gregg Braden, Esther Hicks, and of course, The One Command by Asara Lovejoy. | | The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press boring | This book is so boring I could not finish reading it. I don't think I could even watch it if it was a PBS special.
The book is written for the intellectual few who belong to a specific minority of a social club designed to prevent other from entering within even if they did have the dues (money) to enter and wear the "Club Jacket".
Yes, the Experiment does work and I knew this a long time ago. However, the "experiment" works in every shape form and size both positive and negative. | | The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press Interesting, informative, and thought provoking | Lynne McTaggart, author of the international bestseller The Field, has paved a new road for scientific research with the release of her latest book, The Intention Experiment. This book is truly the first of its kind in that readers are invited to participate in a group of ongoing, world-wide scientific experiments to help determine just how powerful our thoughts really are. The book doesn't really end; instead it calls you to action in a way that no other book has ever attempted.
Before imploring the reader to participate in these ongoing experiments, which are monitored and documented on McTaggart's website, she provides an enormous amount of detailed information regarding related research studies, involving everything from plant-life to humans. If you've ever wondered if there really is proof that our thoughts can change our reality, this book is a great place to start.
At first we felt her detailed account -- what seemed to be a thorough explanation of every possible study having anything to do with thoughts or intent that was ever conducted -- was somewhat excessive. It makes up quite a chunk of the book. However, after reading through to the end, it became understandable why McTaggart chose to document all of this information in one place prior to describing the nature of her current experiments. The huge amount of previously documented research lends credence to the theory that our thoughts and our intent can change things, which makes the fact that we can then participate in experiments ourselves to further such research that much more exciting.
McTaggart provides specific exercises in the book to help you become more grounded and focused, and thus more effective when using your thoughts and intent, both in your own life and in the experiments should you choose to participate in them. The exercises are practical and easy to understand and implement.
All in all, we were impressed by The Intention Experiment. We found it insightful and innovative, and would recommend it for anyone interested in the scientific side of our consciousness. | | The Intention Experiment: Using Your Thoughts to Change Your Life and the World by Free Press Product Description | | The book you hold in your hands is revolutionary, a groundbreaking exploration of the science of intention.Drawing on the findings of leading scientists from around the world, The Intention Experiment demonstrates that thought is a thing that affects other things.
