Blessings and welcome to the path to freedom.
This path about us waking up to who and what we are.
About us allowing for ever greater and grander expressions of that whom we want to emerge and about us allowing for all of the peace and all of the love and all of the joy and all of the harmony and all of the abundance that is inherently within us and that is eternally surrounding us and embracing us and cradling us to emerge in ever greater ways into our experience.
Today's theme is the power of intentions.
The power of intentions.
And setting intentions is a powerful,
Powerful spiritual practice.
And I'm sometimes surprised by how few individuals have intentions in their lives.
Many individuals when they go on vacations,
They plan their vacations meticulously,
Down to the finest detail.
They know exactly when to leave home.
They know exactly their final destination.
They know exactly in many cases their itinerary and their plans throughout the whole vacation.
But when it comes to our own lives,
Few of us have intentions for our lives.
And the beauty of intentions and the power of intentions is that they give us laser focus.
That's what an intention is.
It's a laser statement describing something that we wish to experience.
Describing,
Articulating the direction we want to move in.
The direction we want our lives to move in.
And so,
Not only do intentions give us focus and attention directed toward our own choosing,
But they also inform the sacred laws where we want to go.
So that they can support us,
So that they can design and orchestrate the path toward our intention.
So intentions work both ways.
They work on us,
And they work for us through the sacred laws.
Now,
There are a couple of keys.
Actually,
There are three keys to setting a powerful intention.
And first of all,
We want our intentions to be affirmative.
These keys are not in any particular order,
But I just share them as they flow through me.
But we want our intentions to be set in an affirmative tone.
And what this means is that if we,
For instance,
Seek to increase our health,
We would not set an intention saying that I don't want to eat sugar anymore.
Because that's in the negative.
I don't want to.
I don't want to.
And this has to do with how the sacred laws pick up and reflect back our vibration.
They don't care what we want or what we don't want.
They only care what we're interested in.
They only care where we're turning our attention.
And so if we are turning our attention toward sugar,
That is what they pick up.
They don't hear that we don't want sugar.
All they hear is sugar.
And so by virtue of our intentions set in that negative frame,
We're calling sugar into our experience.
So we want our intentions to be in the affirmative.
And so for the individual who seeks to call forth increased health,
They would perhaps set an intention stating that they want to make conscious choices.
They want to make increasingly healthy choices.
They want to experience divine and perfect health.
They want to experience increasing health.
They want to experience health beyond anything they've ever imagined or something to that effect.
So we want it to be in the affirmative.
And the second key to setting an intention is that it needs to be in the now.
The nowness of this moment is the only moment there is.
And once again,
The sacred laws,
They know nothing of the past.
They know nothing of the future.
They only know now.
And so when we set an intention,
We want to stay clear of perhaps saying,
Next week,
I want to begin to eat healthier next week.
Or I want to begin exercising next week.
But all intentions are wisely stated in the present tense as it is happening now.
So I want to eat healthier.
Or I want my health to increase.
Or whatever the case may be.
And then the final and third key to setting an intention is that they need to be unconditional.
They need to be describing a quality or an experience rather than an outcome.
We do not ever want to dictate to spirit what needs to happen or how it needs to happen or what it's going to look like when it happens.
And so for instance,
Let's say that an individual wants increasing financial stability.
And let's say that this individual sets the intention that they want a new job where they make a million dollars a year.
That's their intention.
To find a job,
To get a job where they make a million dollars a year.
And that's dictating.
That's a specific outcome.
That's a specific end result.
But what if,
As the possibilities are infinite,
As every single possibility already exists,
What if spirit has in store for this individual to perhaps not having to work at all and still enjoy truckloads of money?
Or for an individual who wants to call forth a new housing,
A new house,
And they create an intention stating that they want that house.
They have driven past the house that apparently is for sale and they set the intention to be able to buy that particular house.
But what if spirit,
Once again,
As all possibilities already exists,
What if spirit has something better for them?
Perhaps on a parallel street there's an even greater house that would make an even better fit,
An even greater fit for perhaps half the price.
I mean,
There's so much that we don't know,
So we never want to relegate ourselves to what we think that we know and what we think that we want or what it's going to look like.
So intentions need to be describing qualities.
I want to live in financial abundance.
I want to call forth the perfect house for me.
I want to experience better health.
I want to experience more love in my relationship,
In my marriage.
I want to experience more joy when I'm working.
None of these explain how something's going to turn out or what it's going to look like when it has turned out.
But they're still lasered statements.
And intentions work beautifully,
Beautifully.
But we need to be aware,
We need to be conscious of how we're using intentions.
So just to brief recap,
Intentions want to be in the affirmative.
Whenever we set intentions,
We want them to be affirmative,
We want them to be in the present moment,
In the present tense,
And we want them to be articulating and describing qualities,
Feelings,
Emotions,
Rather than outcomes and end results.
So it is my invitation to you that you set intentions for your day,
For your life,
For any area of your life,
And that you come back to that intention.
Find a way to remind yourself of it.
Indulge your subconscious mind with that intention.
Read it often.
Speak it often.
Repeat it often.
Even when you know it by heart,
Keep coming back to it.
And also,
As with everything that has to do with manifestation,
Feel it done.
We need to feel that it is done.
That is how we move into vibrational alignment with anything.
When we feel that it is done,
That it is happening now,
It's not something that is going to happen,
It is not something that perhaps will or may happen.
But in the mind of spirit,
It's already done,
It's already done,
And the manifestation of this done-ness is now demonstrating here in this dimension.
So that's another key to intentions,
To feel it done.
Thank you so,
So much for tuning in,
For participating.
Until the next time,
I bless,
Bless,
Bless your day,
And I bless,
Bless,
Bless your way.
Your beautiful,
Magnificent,
Powerful,
Intentional being.
Namaste.
