Cultivating the Feelings You Want in Life: A Simple Guided Visualization

Intention setting is a powerful way to guide your actions, your day, and your overall experience of life. Today, I will share with you how you can use your intentions to set the tone of your day or shift your experience of certain events,  even if they are challenging ones.  Then we will do a short guided visualization that you can use to make leaning into whatever intention you choose easier to implement and an even more powerful tool.

For the short practice choose an intention you would like to work with. This will be something you want to feel or bring more of into your life.  It can be used for a specific event, an entire day, or even one you want to use to guide your year.

In this episode, we go through the visualization fairly quickly, but when doing it on your own you can spend as much or little time visualizing what it would be like to live from the intention you choose.

Some examples of intentions are being more grateful, present, patient, confident or joyful.

Be as vivid and detailed as you can when visualizing.  Some questions you may ask yourself during this process are:

• What may be different about my day if I was aligned with my intention today?
• What words might I use?
• How would I walk, sit or carry myself?
• What challenges might I come across, and how would I handle them if I was aligned with my intention?

At the end of 2022, I shared some insights about the importance of intentions via this podcast and a guided meditation on how to connect with what really matters so when setting New Year's resolutions you can align yourself with what is really important to you over your lifetime. 

These episodes were released on Dec 29, 2022, and are episodes 11 & 12: Setting Intentions, (Part 1 and 2).
