Many,

Many blessings.

How can we manifest our highest intentions?

How can we tap into miracles and miracle consciousness?

Welcome to the miracle course.

It is our honor to share this with you as spiritual beings,

As beings of divine light.

It is our natural nature to be in an elevated state of consciousness,

Connected to the One and bringing forth miracles,

Synchronicities,

Grace,

Beauty and light into our lives and into the world.

So today we'll be exploring in this session we're going to look at setting your sacred intentions,

Opening yourself to miracles.

Why we need intentions,

How to create your intentions and the sacred practice of intentionality that helps us manifest what we truly want in our lives with less stress,

With ease and grace and how to start bringing your sacred intentions into form.

Welcome,

Welcome,

Welcome.

So much love and congratulations for being here,

Being interested in miracles and wonders.

So we're going to be diving into how to really create a beautiful vision and intention.

And if you already have a vision board or if you have goals already,

Then this is going to be a way of going deeper and refining them.

And if you don't have goals and visions and intentions at the moment,

It's going to be a life changing thing to do.

And before we get into intentions,

Let's talk about miracles.

What is a miracle?

The dictionary says a miracle is a surprising and welcome event that is not explicable by natural scientific laws and is thereby considered the work of a divine agency.

It's a highly improbable or extraordinary event,

Development,

Accomplishment that brings very welcome consequences and amazing achievement.

So what we're doing is we're tapping into a divine power,

Supernatural energy,

Divine energy,

Spiritual power,

And we're allowing that into our being.

And through that energy field,

Through that intention and that vibration,

We are capable of things far beyond what would be possible otherwise.

So that's what makes this different.

A lot of people have goals and they have dreams,

But it's based on their own personal capacity.

But when we tap into the divine infinite power,

We expand what would be possible for us personally.

Because the infinite power,

The more we allow that to come through us,

The more we can open to genuine miracles and wonders.

So why do we want intentions in the first place?

What is the point of having an intention?

Intentions are really essential because as is our aim in life,

So is the game that we play.

As is our vision,

So is our mission.

As is our goal,

So is our soul.

Because whatever we are focusing upon,

That's where our attention goes,

That's where our energy flows,

And that's what grows.

So our life,

Ultimately,

Whatever we end up with in life,

Wherever we end up,

Is based on our intentions.

And if we don't have our own sacred intentions,

Then we will end up picking up,

We will end up being influenced by the intentions of other people and end up living someone else's life,

Drifting around.

So this is one of the most essential things for us spiritual beings,

Is to figure out what it is that we truly wish to bring forth in our life and to stay with that.

Because whatever that is,

It's almost like a filter through which we see everything.

So we're spiritual beings having a human experience and we've incarnated onto this wonderful planet to enjoy being alive.

And it's our dharma,

It's our deepest desire,

Deep in our hearts,

To understand who we are and express the highest potential through us.

So intentions really are the north star,

The guiding star that makes sense of everything in our lives.

So having sacred intentions will guide you on your journey.

With your sacred intentions,

You have an openness as well,

That this is what I'm intending for the highest good,

And you're open to how that unfolds,

How that becomes manifest.

So sometimes it's nice with intentions that they don't have to be absolutely specific to the tea,

But you have these guiding lights,

You have this guiding awareness of what you intend,

What you intend to be,

What you intend to create,

What you intend to experience.

In a sense,

These divine intentions are like prayers.

They're the energy,

The context with which you wish to experience life,

The energy you're bringing,

The energy you're calling forth,

And what you would love to bring into this world.

So let's just take a moment now as you're listening to tune in with this energy of intentionality,

To be in touch with your heart of hearts,

And that even if your intentions aren't yet clear,

And we will be going more into that today,

That may my highest intentions come to light.

May I be aware of my divine intentions,

The intentions that will guide me and lead me on my most elevated journey here in life.

And you might be wondering,

At the back of your mind,

Does it actually work?

Do intentions,

Visions,

Do they actually work?

Well you can look into your own life,

Your own heart,

And you can see whether or not you have had an intention to do something.

Have you ever manifested what you held in mind?

In fact,

If you wrote a list,

It's actually quite useful to write a list of everything you have,

Everything you've intended to happen,

That has happened.

You can do this in your own time,

Because when you see personally,

Through your own experience,

That you have already been doing this your whole life in one way or another,

It's very inspiring,

Because if you've done it before,

You can do it again at higher levels.

Oftentimes we actually intend for things not to happen,

And those things happen.

Because whatever we focus on becomes manifest.

So if I think to myself,

I don't want to have an accident,

I don't want to have an accident,

I don't want to have an accident,

I don't want to have an accident,

I'm probably going to have an accident,

Because that's where the focus is.

The subconscious doesn't understand the word don't.

So it just has the thing.

So it's really important to recognise that we've manifested things that we want already,

We've also manifested things we didn't want,

Because we were focusing on not having them,

And ended up having them.

So when we create intentions,

What we're aiming for is to choose something that is genuinely inspiring,

That is connected to the highest good,

And bring it forth in life.

And I've personally seen this work countless times.

I remember when I had the intention to live in a beautiful place,

I was living in England,

And I wanted to be somewhere in the tropics,

I had no idea how it was going to happen.

But after holding that intention in my heart,

And letting it go,

And having a sincere desire to be of service and to be my highest self in somewhere beautiful,

I ended up moving to Hawaii,

Which I never even didn't know where Hawaii was.

And I could go on and on about a long list of fascinating things that have been manifested.

But what's more important is looking into your own life and seeing for yourself all the stories and success that you've had.

And if you haven't had success for whatever reason,

What we're teaching you here today is going to help you find out what's going on and how to turn that around.

When we're connecting with intentions,

Our intentions,

And creating miracles,

Perhaps the most important thing is where these intentions are coming from within us.

We've all received a lot of conditioning from the world,

Ideas about what our intentions should be,

What we should want,

What we should do,

What we should have,

All of those things.

And so it's so important to put aside all of those shoulds,

All of the things we suspect have come from outside,

And to place our hand on our hearts and really ask ourselves what our true spiritual soul intentions are.

Because for these intentions to be made manifest,

They must be in alignment with yourself,

The soul,

With the highest good for all.

If they're not,

And this could be why if you haven't always had success with intentions,

With manifestation,

It could be that they're just not in alignment.

So this is one of the key little secrets that will basically make all the difference.

And if you're not yet sure,

It's very powerful to intend to know,

To know what my intentions in alignment for the highest good are,

May that be revealed.

So when you tune into it,

There are some things that are genuinely aligned with who you are,

With your skills,

Your talents,

Your interests,

What your motivations are,

Where you are physically.

And then there are other things that we might have been programmed with that are not really coming from ourselves,

Coming from a good place.

I'll give a ridiculous example of this.

If I wanted to become an NBA professional athlete,

Basketball player in the National Basketball Association League,

We're playing with the top NBA players,

I might visualize that,

I might imagine it,

I might watch basketball games all day long.

But is it likely that I'm going to make the NBA?

No,

I'm too old for a start.

I don't play basketball.

I haven't even got a basketball to play with.

I haven't got a basketball court in my house.

You're not tall enough.

Not tall enough,

Right?

So it's just not going to happen.

No matter how much I visualize it and surrender it to God and have all excited ideas about it and everything else,

It's not going to happen.

Now,

That doesn't mean I can't be involved in basketball if I really want it to,

In one way or another.

But becoming one of the top players is an absurd goal.

And sometimes we have goals that are sort of a bit like that,

That are so out of our possibility that we're just setting ourselves up for disappointment.

Good news is there are literally countless things that we do want that we can manifest and will be even better.

And I'm not sure,

Quite frankly,

If even that did happen,

Would I be happy?

I don't think so.

I wouldn't want to do that realistically.

So sometimes we get ideas,

We hear this from some of our students sometimes,

And when we want things that are not really aligned with us,

It just causes stress,

Disappointment and negativity.

And it doesn't make us feel good in the moment and it doesn't lead anywhere.

So our intentions need to be grounded in reality,

To have that,

I love the saying,

The royalty of reality.

What's real,

What's grounded,

What can you be an embodiment of,

What is true.

This is so important that we're grounded in truth,

Grounded in reality,

Grounded in the practical intentions that will be made manifest.

Intentions in many ways can be said to be a premonition.

Real true intentions are premonitions because it already is,

It already exists and we're being called forward into re-experiencing that.

So as you're listening,

You really tune in to this subtle existence of that which is real,

That which is true,

That which is your highest calling,

And this is really about calling that forth.

You can also say allowing yourself to be pulled into it,

Whichever way,

Whichever direction you want to look at it.

So there are two types of intention.

There are authentic desires,

Pure intentions that are connected with reality,

That are being inspired from the future backwards,

Premonitions.

And then there are artificial desires that have been programmed into us through the media and through various things we've come across in our lives.

And just tune in to the difference in the energy of a desire craving things and intentions.

Desire is all about wanting,

Wishing,

Having a yearning for,

Longing for,

Hankering.

It's kind of like a jonesing after something.

It has a very needy negative feeling about it and when we are trying to manifest things from that place,

Jonesing after it,

Craving it,

We are in the energy field of not having,

We're kind of like standing on one leg,

Craving something.

You know,

It's a very nasty place to live from,

Very unpleasant.

Whereas pure intentions are coming from a place of being directed towards something,

Having an openness,

A willingness,

A reverence for moving in a certain direction from a place of peace.

So when we have cravings for things that are not really real for us,

It feels very disturbing.

And you can tune into it next time you notice yourself having desires.

Oh I wish this,

I want this,

I want this.

Just notice how that feels in your body and in your being.

And that tends to manifest more of what we don't want because we are in the energy of neediness and neediness begets more neediness.

Whereas intentionality is coming into a place where we're surrendered to the highest good for all,

Coming into the beam of divine light and having that deeper knowing that it is already done in the future and we're just retracing our steps.

There's an ease and grace,

There's no worries,

There's no stress,

It's very calm.

So intentionality has a very different flavour to it,

A very different energy field.

So we create our intentions which we'll do in a moment,

Whatever they are,

And then we live with intentionality,

The vibration of being surrendered to the highest good,

Feeling good now and having a deep inner knowing that we're being pulled into the future.

So let's delve into creating intentions.

Make sure you have a pen and paper,

You can go and grab one.

I know that in today's age everyone we're all typing and putting things on phones but there's definitely a special power in writing.

The art of writing.

The art of writing,

Using a pen and putting it on paper,

Really really powerful thing to do.

So when we look at creating intentions there's a wonderful acronym,

SMART INTENTIONS,

And S stands for specific.

Again I was talking earlier about specific so it doesn't have to be like absurdly specific but specific enough.

M for measurable,

A for achievable,

R for relevant,

And T for time bound.

This is important because for example let's say that your intention is to be happy,

That's sort of specific but not really because how would you know you're happy?

A bit more specific would be that you are smiling and you feel good in your heart and you feel blessed and people connect with you differently.

You know there's like signs of happiness.

The reason this is useful is because when we know what the signs are,

The specific things of what we want,

It actually goes deeper when you imagine that.

It goes much much deeper into you and you can experience it much more clearly and by experiencing it more clearly you feel that energy in your being more powerfully and then you manifest it more easily.

So this takes a little bit extra work but it makes a huge difference.

And by the way time bound doesn't mean I need to manifest this thing by a certain specific date.

It can be within a certain period.

So this isn't too specific but enough for you to feel and really know what you're talking about and be able to picture it,

Feel it,

Imagine it,

Hear it in your mind and in your heart.

So this first part is to list your most important intentions.

What do you wish to create in yourself,

In your life?

What do you feel called to do?

What do you feel called to create?

What type of life do you want to experience?

And think about the changes,

The transformations in yourself,

Your body,

Your mind,

Your heart,

Your relationships,

Your environment,

Your wealth,

Your service.

Consider how your intentions will also support others.

The more your intentions also include others benefiting,

The more energy will be attracted towards their manifestation.

So go ahead and write some ideas down.

My intentions are.

.

.

And as you write them down really feel that the pen is like a magic wand.

It's the first form of creation.

It comes in the mind,

It comes down onto the page and then from there it comes into life.

So just take a few more moments.

You can always come back to this.

So next is how will you know that you've achieved these intentions,

This vision?

What will be the signs?

Think about the sensory experience.

What will you see,

Hear?

Consider this super sensuous spiritual experience beyond the senses.

What do you experience in your mind,

In your heart,

In your awareness?

So go ahead and write down how you will know.

What will the experience be?

This is where you can get into some detail of what does that feel like.

The more you can feel it,

Imagine it practically.

Because remember that when you manifest something you want you will be a real being in a real body,

Having a real experience just like you are now,

Except it will be different things or different feelings.

So the more we go from abstract to tangible real experiences,

The more we can imagine them and feel them.

So think about all those details.

Tune into those specific details.

You might be living in a place with lots of light.

You might be feeling you have this beautiful energy in your heart.

It might be that you look in the mirror and you smile.

So allow yourself to go into those experiences.

You might be smelling beautiful roses.

So whatever it is,

Give yourself a chance to really go into those textural experiences,

Those details.

And you can come back to this in your own time,

Allow yourself to go deeper.

And we also have a downloadable version of these questions which you can get later to remind you.

And once you've thought about and tuned into the details,

How you'll know that you've manifested it,

The next thing which is extremely important is that now that you have already achieved it,

So imagine you've already manifested it,

So you go into the experience like day dreaming,

You close your eyes and you imagine,

Okay,

I'm in this experience,

I'm walking around,

I feel this,

I see this,

I hear this.

Imagine all those things are real.

If all those things were practically happening right now,

How would you feel?

What would be the vibration?

What would be the energy,

The vibration of that?

This is really fascinating.

Tune into the energy frequency.

Sometimes you,

And where would you feel it?

Do you feel it in your heart?

Do you feel it in your head?

Does your solar plexus feel different?

Just notice the energy frequency of what it is.

The more you practice this,

The more you'll get those vibrations.

So first of all you figure out what you want to manifest,

To experience what you intend.

Then you go into the details of what is that actually like realistically.

And then based on having that,

Experiencing that,

Receiving that,

How would you feel?

And tune into the feelings.

Feelings sometimes have like a color or a shape or a certain place in the body.

There's a certain energy,

A certain sound sometimes.

There's all sorts of things associated with feelings.

And if you tune into it more and more,

You'll notice there is a certain energy vibration,

A frequency of your intentions.

And when you tune into that,

This is so important,

When you tune into that energy,

When you have the feeling of having attained everything,

That vibration,

That feeling is ultimately.

People run around so much,

Spend so much money,

Do so much work to get stuff to feel a certain way.

So if you go straight to the feeling,

Then right now,

Today,

No matter what you're up to,

You can have the vibration that you've already attained everything.

Already attained everything.

Such a beautiful feeling.

I have already attained everything.

You'll feel it in your heart.

And we have some other questions related to this,

But we can go into those another time.

You'll get the printout download.

But these three things are the key things to start with.

What do you want to manifest?

What's your intention?

How will you know you've attained it?

And then the third thing is,

What is the feeling having attained?

So get into the spirit,

The vibration of the thing that you want,

As if it were there now.

And as you experience that feeling,

You are relieved of all effort to make it so,

Because it is already here.

We're no longer desiring something,

We've attained that which we desire.

There is always a definite feeling associated with everything.

So capture.

.

.

And let's just take a moment for everyone who taps in with this audio,

Past,

Present and future,

All of the beings who come in touch with this miracle intention setting.

Let's take a moment to shower our blessings upon their intentions.

Feel yourself as an instrument of the Divine's light,

Showering powerful light,

Love and blessings upon each and everyone's intentions.

And as you give blessings for each and everyone's intentions,

You receive the blessings as well.

So feel the vibrations of what you want and bless others.

May everyone else manifest what they want.

Whenever we wish others well,

Then that good energy comes through us and expands.

And so,

As we do this,

And as also we surrender to the highest good for all,

Because we mentioned this before,

If your intentions are connected to the well-being of others,

Then other people are much more likely to get on board with you manifesting what you want,

Because it benefits them as well.

This is something that a lot of people don't really talk about,

But if we do something just for ourselves,

If I have an intention that only benefits me personally,

Then no one else really cares,

Because in what way is it good for them?

If I have an intention that benefits a lot of other people,

Then there's like a collective good vibration that's going to much more likely arise as that intention is manifested and moved forward towards manifestation.

So the more you can add other people's well-being into your intentions,

The easier you'll find they start to arise.

And then the final thing,

Just to mention briefly,

Is that as you are in this process of manifesting your intentions,

It's really important to get in a stable place now.

And what that means is that if you are in need of certain things practically in your life right now,

And you intend certain things to happen in the future,

But they're not here today,

And those things that you really need are causing all sorts of chaos,

Then it's really essential to take care of that stuff right away.

So if you need to make more money or get a job or do this or do that or take care of a relationship or whatever it is,

Don't wait around years and years and years to manifest some completely different situation.

And in the meantime you're dealing with all this chaos.

It's really useful to,

As much as possible,

Get grounded now in whatever you're doing.

Because when we manifest from a place of peace,

As much as possible,

The more us,

Our life is stable as much as it can be in this crazy world,

The more we can go into that space.

And at the end of it all,

I highly recommend surrendering your intentions to the divine.

God,

Ocean,

Truth,

Purity,

Peace.

It's a powerful practice to let it all go and be open to it being made manifest in light of the highest good for all,

In light of divine will.

So you may like to add that to your practice as well as you continue to tune in with your sacred intentions,

Ground in with them and move forward on your beautiful journey.

Yeah,

It's a fascinating thing.

You'll see that they start to unfold.

You'll start finding clues,

Secrets and we have a lot more to share about this process later on.

This is just the first step.

So fill in your miracle intentions,

Whatever they are.

Write them out in a beautiful way.

You can even put them in a special box,

Have them somewhere special.

Then look at them and read them daily.

You can even rewrite them and specifically go into the vibration of that intention as much as you can during the day.

A lot of people have heard about this but they don't actually practice it.

So what we're encouraging you to do is to really practice this genuinely.

Ask yourself at what time in your day could you revisit your intentions and feel the vibrations.

Could you do it in the morning?

Could you do it after a certain practice?

Really useful to think if,

When,

Then.

If you do a certain thing like when you wake up in the morning,

If you wake up and you do your practice,

Then you feel the vibration of your intentions or when you have a cup of tea,

Then you will experience this.

Just tune into it.

When in your current life can you add in this practice?

A wonderful thing is actually when you're falling asleep and when you wake up.

It's really nice to be lying in bed half asleep,

Visualizing what you want to manifest,

Feeling the vibrations and then you fall asleep.

That's undeniably one of the most powerful times to do it.

So when you do something already,

That you already have,

Then where can you fit it into your life?

And then finally as you practice experiencing these things,

Then you can surrender it up.

Let it go,

Let it go,

Let it go.

Surrender it up.

We're going to encourage you to do this every day,

Consistently and see what happens.

Feel what happens.

Notice the difference.

And if you've heard about this before and you know about it but you haven't really done it,

Because most people haven't really done it,

Then here's your opportunity to sincerely from the heart bring this into your life every single day,

Again and again as much as you can and see what happens.

It's a fascinating experiment.

So wishing you every blessing with your miracle intentions and beginning this powerful process.

Thank you for your divine presence.

Many blessings and connect soon.

Have fun and may you be surrendered to the highest good for all.

May you release resistance and be open to miracles and may you trust in God,

The magician,

The wonder to help you manifest your highest,

Purest,

Sacred intentions.

The secret is to read and remind yourself of what you want and then if I manifested it,

How would I feel?

How would I feel?

So there's a two-step process.

One is that you remind yourself of these things and then you ask,

How would that feel?

And then you focus on the feeling.

And if it doesn't make you smile and laugh and make bubble up,

Then you can change it until it does.

Because when we have pure intentions that are really meaningful to us and are also good for others and are connected to the highest good,

It will make you feel really,

Really good.

Naturally,

You'll just bring a bubbling good vibration up into your being and you'll really enjoy it.

So the secret for us is to wholeheartedly say to ourselves,

All right,

I'm going to genuinely practice this every day and enjoy doing it and see what happens.
