Questions prompt each person to chose a word or phase that expresses the intention they want to manifest in their lives or community. There are no right or wrong answers. As long as the word feels activated and truthful, it is the right word! Part 2. Each participant hammers their intention onto a token on a bracelet. Participants are encouraged to solidify their intent with each stamp of a letter. Part 3. As the bracelets are finished, each person shares the “why” behind their token while their neighbor helps them tie the bracelet onto their wrist, bringing conversation and connection to the experience. Part 4. By wearing the bracelets, the participants are constantly reminded of their intention and they get the opportunity to share what they feel and made with someone new!
