Weekly Intention - Trust

I have started many blog posts over the past few weeks but when I read them over, have found that they don't contain the vibe I hope to be creating with this blog.  The last several weeks have found me very tired, lacking energy and motivation, and not as positive as I'd like to be.  I certainly understand that we all go through these types of periods from time to time and I also believe I know why this is affecting me now.  I just wanted to share this as I have not been writing as many posts as I would have hoped over the last several weeks.

So...this leads me to this week's intention--thanks Andrea!!.  I'm still sticking with the same "theme" of trust, faith, believing...as I'm going through a situation at work with a duty to accommodate for me.  I have had environmental/chemical sensitivities since I was a teenager but over the last 20 years has progressively gotten worse.  I now have an issue at work that I need to have accommodated but the process has been more onerous that I thought it would be. This situation has also caused me more stress than I would have liked it to--hence the trust, faith, believing intentions.  I know that my life is heading in the "right" direction for me to live me best life and that any perceived obstacle by me is a part of the process.  The problem is that as a human being, I tend to be more reactionary than my spritual being is. 

So...I am sending my trust, faith, and belief into the Universe, knowing that it's response to me is my best life! 

Thanks!

Weekly Intention - Faith

Thanks to Andrea at ABC Creativity for the reminder of setting a weekly intention to help guide me on the path towards my best life.

This week, the old standard of "keeping the faith" is reminding me that I don't need to be in control of every thing in my life and that letting go is sometimes the very best choice for me to make.  Just trust in God and the Universe that my best life will unfold as I make the "right" decisions to move forward.

It's very hard for me to let go and to trust as I have had so many people control my life--from childhood into adulthood--that I have huge boundaries where I can control my life.

Of course, I know that the amount of control I feel I need to have over my life is over the top so I continue to work at keeping faith and trusting that life is unfolding as it should.

In a lot of ways, my control has actually limited my life as fear makes too many of my decisions.

There is a lot going on at work lately which has caused me to have a lot of stress and feel out of control.  This has been going on for the last few months and it is really affecting my health.  If I could let go, trust, and have faith, then perhaps I could be living my best life with more of a sense of security than I am.  I could let go of limiting behaviors and beliefs and open my heart and mind to possibilities that I can't even think of.

I heard something this weekend that struck a cord in me.  It's simple but really made me think...

Thanks and have a great week!

Keep on moving

This week's intention for Andrea Schroeder is "movement" and thatis close to what comes up for me when I think about what I want to focus on this week.  

My intention is to "keep moving"--in a physical, mental, emotional, dicovery...way. 

I keep moving my body to help it get stronger and stronger and healthier and healthier.  I keep moving in a mental, emotional, discovery way so that I keep moving forward, upward, onward to my best life and learning about myself in the process.

Last week's intention was "trusting the process" and it was a bit of a struggle.  There's a lot of change going on with my workplace right now and I'm not sure where I'm going to end up when all of the changes are done.  I'll have a job, but I want to make sure that it's "meaningful work" and that it's a challenge, rewarding, and has room for "moving".  I had some trouble trusting this process last week and felt I had to do some things to assert/protect myself due to the changes.  I'm still not sure how it's all going to work out, but I need to trust that it will...

Thanks!

My Intention This Week - Trusting

I think that too often, I live unconsciously and don't focus inward to my core enough--I only focus inward so far and get stuck in thinking of the past or hopes for the future.  So...in order to try to align with my instinct, my inner "knowing", I'm trying to participate in a few on-line activities that I believe will help me with that.

One of these gifts is being shared by my beautifully creative friend, Andrea Schroeder--setting a Weekly Intention.

When I looked inward and thought about the space that I needed to live in this week (not just this week, but it's a start...) what came to me was "trust in the process". 

So that's where I'm going to try to focus myself back to this week.  Trusting that there is a higher power that helps to guide me toward my "best life" and that when I listen to my body and my mind magic happens.

Thanks.
