This Week’s Meditative Thought – Setting Intentions

© M B / Attribution-ShareAlike Named after Janus, the Roman god who is associated with doorways, beginnings, and transitions, January is the perfect and natural time for setting intentions; to be more, to stretch, and to grow. To start, it is important that you be willing to expand your mind, body, and spirit. This week, today, at this moment begin remembering that each day is a new day, each moment is a new moment, each breath is a new breath. Use this new day to grow and be more than you ever thought you could be.

This Week’s Action Plan: Walk through the doorway of intentions and start again. Create your own restart button and realize that you part of power eternity that God has set you on. Take time to meditate on the newness of each breath, moment, and day. All this week, take that step and look toward setting intentions and seek the freshness of God, and refresh your life.

Peace and blessings,

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 14 “Knowing Your Abundance”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 14 “Knowing Your Abundance”

Today’s Body Connection: Fitness and health is an abundant state of mind, a consciousness that comes from an awakening from within. Today, set the intention to walk with the sole purpose of the activation of abundance within your life. Stretch to know more flexibility and the movement of the spirit. Do your pushups to experience more in your daily existence. Your abundance, like your state of health, comes from your consciousness. You are what you think you are.

Today’s Meditative Thought: There is nothing that the Universe withholds from us. The Universe is always blessing us with more of itself; more love, more abundance, more joy, more peace, more compassion, and more life. The real key to receiving spiritual gifts is the awareness of their existence. The activity of God is grace, the gift of the Divine itself. Grace is the awareness that God is in action, is in order, and it is in balance working for our highest good. There is always an abundance of Grace waiting to be poured upon us, as much as our consciousness will allow. The blessing can only be received as much as we believe. We must set the intention to know the abundance of God that is our life.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, know your abundance. Take the time to contemplate the plentitude of the Universe. Think of the unending blessings of God. That is what you have; that is what you are.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I live a life of unending blessings. My every move is fueled with grace and all is well. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 10 “Recognizing Eternity”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 10 “Recognizing Eternity”

Today’s Body Connection: Set the intention to know eternal life through the practice. Did you know that you could add ten to 20 years to your life by working out? The physical practice is the fountain of youth and it’s time to tap it. Every time you train, it is accumulative. Restoration of the body requires a daily practice that takes time before you see the payoff, but it is happening. One of the first things that people will notice is that you look younger. You will hear compliments like, “Did you have work done?” or “There’s something different about you. You look younger.” Truth is, you are younger in spirit and, yes, you have had work done: inner work.

Today’s Meditative Thought: The deepest awareness that we can have is our own eternity. Once we realize that we are spiritual beings, having a human incarnation, that our spirit is never born and will never die, life becomes meaningful. In 2012, I experienced a great deal of what appeared to be loss. My sister Beth, two aunts, several close family friends, and a student of mine all made their transition into “life after life.” My “human incarnation” experienced grief and pain, and some days I felt as if life did not have a purpose. It wasn’t until I consciously began to do spiritual work around life eternal did my perception shift. Daily I prayed and meditated on life never-ending. I asked the Universe to show Eternity to me. Every time I did, I felt the presence of my loved ones around me. I felt comfort and a sense of peace. For me, this is evidence of eternity.

Another lesson that I learned through this experience is that I do not have to wait until someone leaves this side of existence to anchor an eternity consciousness. A daily practice builds spiritual consciousness so that I am prepared when the turbulent waves of the sea of life hit.

We are all created from God; therefore we are everlasting. Set the intention to know your infinite self. It is the spiritual practice that allows us to tap into the open space of Divine Eternity.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, ask to know eternity. Close your eyes and breathe in. Contemplate life eternal through your daily meditation. Be still and know your eternity.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I live the eternal life of God with high intentions. My life is the blessing that empowers the world and all is well. And so it is. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 9 “Your Divine Energy”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 9 “Your Divine Energy”

Today’s Body Connection: What is your source of energy? What energizes your practice? The divine fuels your workouts and it keeps you from quitting. When you want to give up, ask your higher self to boost your workouts. Set the intention to power your training with the force of God.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Set the intention to connect with your divine energy. The pathway of roses or the journey to your higher self is the purpose of our existence. We have heard it over and over again: “To thy own self be true” or “You are the author of your own life.” We can only be authentic by remembering who and what we are. That is always the first step toward our greatness. These great Avatars invite us to remember our divine energy. I believe this can only be achieved through the stillness. Your divine energy is the source of you, and it is what drives you into action. Whenever I teach yoga, I remind the class and myself that this physical activity is a tool to remember our true spirit.

Today’s Action Plan: Today. remember your divine energy. Set the intention to go within to connect with Source, so that you can be the author of your existence.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am the author of my life. With the Divine, I co-create a magnanimous existence. And Life is good.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 8 “Let Your Voice Be Heard”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 8 “Let Your Voice Be Heard”

Today’s Body Connection: Set the intention to let your true voice be heard through your workouts. When we participate in a physical practice, there is a vibration we radiate that is like singing. Our energy is the voice of our true nature. We cannot hide what is going on within. Training the body-temple is letting your true nature be heard. There is nothing within us that says we should be in poor and de-conditioned health. Our true nature is love, and when we exercise we express who we truly are.

Today’s Meditative Thought: This year, set the intention to let your voice be heard. What I mean by “voice” is your talents. There are great ideas that you have downloaded from the Universal Mind that you have kept to yourself. It is time to release and allow the creative juice to flow. We all have talents that we decided to bring to this side of existence long before time itself. One of our fears is that “it” won’t be good enough. Not true. “It” is always good enough because “it” is God. Whatever your talent is, it flows from the mind of God so bless it and let your voice be heard.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set the intention to share your gifts with one person that you trust. Do this task without an expectation of judgment. Simply ask this person to participate in your talent for the simple task of sharing.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, l live my vibrations and I bless the planet with my gifts. I release anything that does not serve my existence. I awaken my divine creative nature and I set free the God energy that is my life. And so I am. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 6 “Remember to Remember”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 6 “Remember to Remember”

Today’s Body Connection: Choose the workouts that help you to remember your intentions. If you set the goal to be the best you can be, choose a practice that anchors the intention. The physical should always be in alignment with the mental and spiritual goals. Set the intention to always remember your truth.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Waking up is one thing, but staying awake is a completely different practice. Remembering to remember our divine self can be more challenging than experiencing “Ah-Ha” moments. Each and every day there are eye-opening insights that activate evolution, but then comes the action required to implement true change. Once we begin the journey to shift, we must continue the work in order to remember. This could come from prayer, meditation, sacred study, fellowship, and self-contemplation. Set the intention to “remember to remember” every day.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set the intention to stay awake. A quick mantra can always help: “I am one with God.” Create your mantra that keeps you on track. Commit to a practice of aligning yourself with the one power of God.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, the qualities of God is my life. I “remember to remember” my purpose.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 5 “Why We Are Here”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 5 “Why We Are Here”

Today’s Body Connection: When we participate in a physical practice, we begin to understand the meaning of life. We were created to live an existence filled with abundance and prosperity, and that includes our health. Our physical training can lead to the awakening that we are alive and well. After a great yoga class or cycling session, the vibration is extra-heightened and filled with living energy. When we understand the meaning of being alive, we will set the intention to know more of life. Life-energy is contagious. When we connect with our intention of having the best possible existence, people will catch the vibe and they will want to know what is it about us. We will begin to radiate our intentions and share our enlightenment, and that is why we are here.

Today’s Meditative Thought: We are here upon this planet to share our gifts and to know our divine self. We are not here to get anything, but to give. Because we all are one, connected by the spirit of God, when we give we receive. It is the “Law of Circulation.” This is the time to set the intention to know our oneness. We are living in a very unique time in our existence. We have two choices: to evolve in consciousness and grow as a people, or annihilate each other and call it a day. I am choosing the path of growth. Will you join me? Let’s remember why we have chosen to experience this side of eternity. Let’s remember why we are here.

Today’s Action Plan: Today’s lesson is to remember why you are here. Take the time to bless everyone with your gifts and talents. During your time at work, school, or play, set the intention to bless and to give love. Remind yourself that you are here to give, not to get. Walk with a new intention to show up as God.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I know the one power that is my life; therefore I am the blessing. I move and groove with a new divine rhythm. And so it is. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 2 “Creating Open Spaces”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 2 “Creating Open Spaces”

Today’s Body Connection: If you are bored with your fitness routine, it is time to start again. The energy of boredom comes from the inability to touch your inner creativity. Revamping your training regime is a great way to restart your fitness program. Be willing to go within and ask yourself what is missing. Take the time for self-exploration. When we become willing to shift the way we train our body-temples, infinite possibilities become our truth. There are many pathways to wholeness; be willing to shift direction.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Setting intentions means opening our consciousness and creating space to grow. We must be willing to release our old ideas so that we may have new experiences on our spiritual walk. Our intentions set into motion the clearing away of old paradigms that no longer serve us. It is the open space that gives us breathing room so that new and powerful transformative work can take place. When we set the intention to be more, there must be a willingness to ask the question, “What must I release? What must I become?” The intention to transform is the intention to become more.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set aside everything you think you know about your journey so that you are open and free to have a new and fresh experience in God. Use the “set aside prayer”; “May I set aside everything I think I know about ____ (fill in the blank) so that I may have a new experience.” Be willing to release everything that no longer serves you. Create a space for transformation.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I am a new experience in the mind of God. My life is a fresh idea that blesses the planet. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 1 “A New Day”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Setting Intentions – Day 1 “A New Day”

Today’s Body Connection: Setting new intentions for the body-temple is a must in order for a real shift to occur. Be willing to declare what condition you are looking to achieve. All change and transformation begins with setting goals. Remember this truth: an external shift is temporary but an internal transformation is lasting. This year, instead of focusing on losing pounds, try setting the intention to embrace your desires. Be open to receiving and recognizing your wholeness, divinity, and self-love.

Today’s Meditative Thought: Today is a new day, a New Year, and our life continues into eternity. Because our existence is never-ending, we get the chance to push the restart button and begin anew. This start-over is fueled with intentions. The word intention means to be more, to stretch, to grow. When we set intentions, we must be willing to expand our mind, body, and spirit. This New Year’s Day is the perfect time to begin your eternal existence again. Remember, each day is a new day, each moment is a new moment, each breath is a new breath, and that we have never experienced this moment in God ever before. Don’t waste this new day; use it to grow and be more than you ever thought you could be.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, set the intention to start again. Create your own restart button by realizing that you are in the middle of eternity. Take time to meditate on the newness of each breath, moment, and day. Today, see the freshness of God, and refresh your life.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, I live the newness of God that is my life. I push the restart of eternity and create a new spiritual journey. And so it is. Amen.

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Celebrating Light – Day 31 “Begin Again”

DAILY TRANSFORMATIONAL NUGGETS FOR THE BODY, MIND, AND SPIRIT: 31 Days of Celebrating Light – Day 31 “Begin Again”

Today’s Body Connection: Push-ups, pull-ups, and crunches are great ways to train the body-temple without equipment. You don’t need an external weight machine to challenge or to build strength. You only need your willingness to allow your light to shine. Today, begin your physical practice or simply begin again.

Today’s Meditative Thought: As we prepare for a New Year, we begin to reflect on the year that has just come to an end. Did we complete all of the intentions set last year at this time? Did we achieve our goals created from the space of “this next year will be better”? This is the time of year that we become hyperaware of the restart button. A New Year marks the end and the beginning of a cycle of time that man has created. The truth is that the Light is eternal; therefore we are always in a space of starting again. We do not have to wait for the New Year to begin a new cycle, or to set a new intention. We can push the restart button right now. Just take a breath and realize that this is a new moment in eternity.

Today’s Action Plan: Today, close your eyes, take a breath, and push the restart button. Set a new intention for your life, and begin again.

Today’s Affirmation: Just for this moment…just for this breath, with the power of God, I begin again. Today, only my highest good unfolds. And so it is. Amen
