INTENTIONS ☪

This week we're talking all about intentions!

• What is an intention?

• How do I set an intention?

• Why is it important to set intentions?

• Are setting intentions actually worth it?

• What's an example of a written intention?

Uhh this makes me so happy because incorporating intentions in my day to day life has made such a difference for me. I swear, when you take the time to set an intention, it's like telling the Universe "okay I'm ready to receive in this specific way" and the Universe is like "Let's do this thing! I want you to have all the abundance". It warms my heart so much.

Okay, let's get right into it. So what is an intention anyway?

An intention is:

• an energetic aim that guides your actions

• about being intentional with where you place your FOCUS and ENERGY

• essentially an invisible road map to where you want to go

When you set an intention, you're living life purposefully, instead of just going through the motions, doing the same thing, day in and day out, hoping that you'll get a different outcome. Enough of that!

If you want something, if you REALLY want something, be intentional about it. Just try it, I dare you!

Okay so now I understand what it is, but how do I set an intention?

1. Identify your greatest desire(s) - sometimes more than one will come up. That's okay, it's normal. What I would say for you to do is to start with the one your most passionate about. The thing you can stop thinking about or dreaming about. Yeah, that one!

2. Get SPECIFIC - Why do you want this? Ask yourself why until its very clear. Then ask yourself, when do I want this?

3. Write it down - I know this sounds corny, but as Tony Robbins says, "stay in your head you're dead". Part of you writing it down is so that you brain can see you taking action on that thought and it can relax a little. Remember, what you write, you invite!

4. Make sure it provokes a strong FEELING in your body. When you allow yourself to feel something, I mean truly feel your passion/dream, you change your entire body's chemistry, emitting a very high frequency/vibe (whatever word suits your mood). And you know what the Universe loves, high vibes!

5. Create aligned action.

Why is it so important to set intentions?

Well, this has become one of my favourite practices to implement in my life, and let me tell you why:

• It helps you get to where you want to be WAY faster.

• It increases your productivity b/c your actions are aligned with your final goal.

• Our intentions create our reality. Intentions start with thought, and our thoughts create emotions and emotions are what drive our actions.

• It's the best way to keep on course to meeting your goals b/s it provides accountability.

Are setting intentions actually worth it?

100% they are and let me tell you why...

You may not like this, I know I didn't the first time I heard it but I now know that it's a universal law, which makes it right! Here it goes...

What you have in your life right now is a reflection of the unconscious intentions you've had up until now.

What's an example of a written intention?

Let's get personal. Here's one of my intentions that I hold super close to my heart.

"My intention is to fully embrace and embody the healer in me (my angel wings & my voice) so that I can be a powerful conduit for healing women."

And so it is!

If you want some help setting some powerful intentions to help guide your life in the direction that you want, message me. I would love to be the one to guide you so that you can take intentional actions to living a more purposeful life!

Lots of love,
