When conducting remote healing sessions, it’s essential that both parties involved take a moment to establish clear intentions. This could involve placing hands over an object (e.g. a doll, bear or crystal) or simply chanting or visualising energy moving freely through their bodies.
Voodoo dolls and doll babies have long been seen as tools of harm or revenge; however, their true potential lies elsewhere. With focused intention, beneficial changes in qi and electromagnetic energy can be activated through them.
Intention
Remote doll healing‘s intention phase involves setting a positive intent and relaying it to their client via phone, Skype, Zoom or other forms of electronic communication. This could range from something as straightforward as “I intend to bring peace, calmness and wellbeing” all the way up to helping overcome an illness or problem for instance. Once transmitted to their client they can then focus their energy during their healing session on this intention.
Philosophy of intention is an area of central philosophical inquiry, relevant to questions in metaphysics, action theory, epistemology and ethics (where double effect theory and practical reasoning come into play).
One of the more difficult challenges of mental states is understanding their purpose. While it may be easy to assume that intentions involve actions (and sometimes beliefs), understanding their content remains challenging.
Another difficult question regards the role of reasons in intentions. Some philosophers contend that intentions are guided by reasons, yet it remains unclear what this entails or how we should account for different intentions guiding behavior immediately, such as prospective and immediate ones.
