Intention setting recommendations
I would really love to invite you to sign up for the FREE 30-day trial of the CREATRIX School and read and work through the whole Friendship chapter – because it will make it easier for you to be clear about your intentions, dreams, desires and wishes when it comes to creating new, supportive and conscious friendships – and of course you are invited to stay for more and to bring love, clarity, confidence and connection into all areas of your life.
Everything is needed. And so is everyone.
We need herbs and plants, and exercise, to eat well, to feel well, and to take care of ourselves and all the other things it takes to nourish our bodies.
We also need to do the inner work, to be free to react with a beginners mind and to not remain limited by our past and learned limitations.
And in the same way, when we’re ready – we also need to really openly and safely come together with others, so we can evolve further with the knowledge and support that each of us brings to the table to nourish our souls.
So when we come together and share our lives and our intentions, it’s important not to judge.
When other people set intentions that you think are too high – let them.
If you think it’s impossible for them to reach their goals, work on yourself and see what you can do to support their intentions anyway. Maybe you will be surprised.
And if they don’t – help them troubleshoot to see what they need to change to get there – and don’t just say: I told you so.
We’re here to help each other fly, not to prove a point. Here and in all of life, it helps to fine tune our communication and our understanding of ourselves, for support, not for being right.
When you think people set their intentions too low, the same rule applies – let them.
We are where we are, maybe they need to take one step at a time, and it’s much more useful to set your intentions on something you actually believe you can have, than on something you secretly believe won’t work anyway.
So, supporting each other’s intentions in a CREATRIX Crew is an ideal practice to be non-judgemental, to explore greater goals AND to accept each other for who we are and where we are.
Then, once we’re clear on that, let’s go a bit more into detail about what can be possible with intention setting because I do really believe that this can be an incredibly powerful and meaningful addition to your and anybody’s life.
To set intentions for each other, we don’t have to be in the same space physically, we can really do it from anywhere and at all times.
What is important, though is, that the person who is asking for support with whatever it is they are intending, is clear and specific about their situation and what they need. The more specific we become, the better.
If you’d like to heal a toothache, for example, say which tooth it is exactly that needs healing and what the problem with this is.
And don’t let ‘reality’ or what you think is possible stop you here.
According to Lynne McTaggert’s book, The Power of Eight, people have healed countless impossible things this way: spinal cord injuries, cancer, uncurable diseases and conditions, autoimmune diseases, severe depression and some groups have even healed personal and political conflicts, lessened water pollution, changed the certain outcome of court cases and much more.
When writing or articulating your intention, you can use the reporter’s checklist to make sure you have all the necessary information covered: Who? What? When? Where? Why and How?
You could even draw a picture of it or make a collage/ vision board, and then place it somewhere where you can look at it often and keep coming back to imaging yourself having achieved what you wish for.
And then, don’t be shy about sharing your intentions. This is a give and take and an act of self-care. If we don’t ask for what we would like, we might never get it.
This practice and opportunity comes with the general rule that the more you give, the more you will receive.
So even if you find it difficult to ask for things for yourself, you can focus on the giving and allow others to do the same for you.
Simply ask yourself if you’d be okay spending a couple of minutes per day sending positive intentions to your friends and other crew members, and, if the answer is yes, then why wouldn’t they happily do the same?
We can all only win here.
Setting your intentions:
What is your first intention going to be?
Here are a few examples:
“My intention is to get more sleep this week. I’ve been worrying about … and I’d like to resolve it by doing …./ getting help with… so that I can stop thinking/worrying about it and, as a result, might sleep better again.”
“I have headaches and migraines often, and I would like to get through a week without a headache and generally reduce my rate of headaches by 50% by the end of the year. For this, I might have to let go of some negative beliefs and emotions and allow myself to relax and enjoy myself more.”
“I want to meet my dream partner this year, and I want them to have the following qualities: …. These things are non-negotiable: … and these would be an added bonus: … because I wish to enjoy the beauty of sharing the exciting and difficult parts of life together with someone whom I trust and love and respect and who treats me the way I wish to be treated.”
And then make a vow out loud, to yourself, and (in your mind) to your friends or CREATRIX Crew, that you will do everything in your power to make this a reality.
How to hold the intention for someone else:
When you’ve received your friend’s intention, find a time when you are not in a rush and a place where you feel safe and comfortable and can be undisturbed for a few minutes.
Close your eyes, and take three deep breaths in and out. It helps to breathe out longer than breathing in, as that calms the nervous system.
Try to get any distracting thoughts out of your mind and then, when your head is clear, begin with a simple loving kindness mediation.
Start by sending a loving thought to yourself, such as: “May I be well and free from suffering.” And on the out breath imagine a white or yellow light, like the sun, shining outward from your heart.
The next step is to think: “I appreciate the love and kindnesses of all living creatures. May all others be well.” First, think about all the people you love, then all the people you know, and then try to include even those you actively dislike.
Think for each group: May they be well and free from suffering.
This is a fun practice in general, I find. But it especially helps to get your mind in a state that is open and receptive and non-judgemental.
I remember the first time I tried to send love to Donald Trump (who I found the hardest to love of all people in the world at the time). It wasn’t easy, but the inner peace that comes when we stop holding grudges is so incredible and life giving, it’s really worth it.
So, when we do this, we get our body, mind and soul in alignment and in a frequency in which we can send and receive intentions in positive and meaningful ways.
When you feel like you are at peace and in alignment, think of your friends’ intentions and the desired outcome they wish for.
Try to feel the desired outcome with all your body and all your senses. Imagine your friend being happy, healthy, abundant and loved, surrounded by everything they wish for.
If you wish, you can also document the changes you experience, or the visions that come up, in a notebook. See how you feel before you start this practice. See how you feel after.
And also check in to see how things change for you over time:
Does your general well-being improve?
What changes do you notice?
Is what you wished and hoped for actually happening? How about for the other crew members?
What are you doing to support the process?
Do you notice that the healing thoughts you send out for your friends also change things in your life?
And that’s it.
I really hope you will integrate this into your daily life and make it a regular and lasting practice so that you will begin to see the positive effects in all areas of your life and begin to create even more strong and meaningful connections through this.
