What does it mean to live with intention? What are my intentions? How do I know if I am living out my intentions — daily? weekly? yearly? How do I take the abstract concept of living with intention and making it real — day in, day out?
Are you constantly reacting to whatever life throws your way? Do you take time to reflect of how you spend your time, energy and money on a regular basis? Do you know what feeds your soul and regularly prepares you for giving out fully from your strong, healthy inner self? Are you tired of running on the hamster treadmill of life?
Chances are, if you are whizzing through life and feeling uneasy or unfulfilled, it could be helpful for you to explore living with more intention. Another way to phrase this is living out a life that is meaningful and thoughtful for you. Living with intention is a different way of living. Peace and fulfillment increase when you develop skills and tools for living intentionally.
Living intentionally means learning to pause throughout the days and have enough perspective to recognize your choices for what to say, what to do next, and how to spend your money. It means understanding that some choices are better aligned with what you really care about and what is right for you and those you love. It means feeling that icky feeling when you make a choice that isn’t aligned with your purpose and learning that maybe next time…you could make a different choice.
Living intentionally also involves challenging yourself to make some changes or try some things differently. Do you know of some change that you want to make in your life or something new that you want to try but for various reasons just never do it? Part of living with more intention will mean pausing to evaluate these things and then taking action — small steps at a time — to come more into alignment with what is purposeful for you.
Lots to explore and that is exactly what the Living with Intention Group is designed to do. We will create a space to pause, reflect on and act on living with more intention in a small group setting with time for quieting the mind as well as group discussion.
