Essential Oils: Creative Living With Intention

Living your life with intention involves engaging all of your energies and strength. Creating intention in your life is both affirming what you want and being satisfied with being on the journey. It is about making change and manifesting this change through the power of thought and actively making an effort to do so. Deciding on your true intention, honoring your intention, even if you have not yet reached your goal, is how you bring forth the power of change. Then, putting it out there for the Universe to unfold it, is the final step.

Commit regular time with yourself by evaluating the more subtle contexts of your life. This implies looking through the window of your soul and giving yourself a regular evaluation and then honoring your intention as to what it will become.

Close your eyes, envision yourself at your goal, and take a few deep breaths of success. Put your energy into reinforcing your trust that you truly want to grow, to evolve, and change. "Energy follows thought" and energetically, a part of you is already where you want to be.

Keep reminding yourself that each time you affirm your intention, each time you commit to the process, you are actually doing something positive. The process itself clears your mind of fears and affirms your unique and powerful spirit.

Don't just wish you would live with intention. Take the first step and trust where you will lead yourself.

"It is not good enough for things to be planned - they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation." - Walt Kelly
