365 Intentions

Breakthrough

I'm appreciating having drawn the BREAKTHROUGH card from Denise Linn's Soul Coaching Oracle Cards.  This seems exactly right:

"You're at the precipice of a huge, positive breakthrough!"

"Quit standing on the cliff wondering what you should do.  Just jump off, spread your arms, and you shall fly!  It's not life as usual anymore."

San Kalpa: My intentions have infinite organizing power

Deepak Chopra shares in The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire:  "Our intentions are a manifestation of the total universe because we are part of the universe.  And our intentions hold within them the mechanics of their fulfillment.  All we really need is clarity of intent. Then if we can get the ego out of the way, the intentions fulfill themselves."

I'm looking for clarity.  That's what I feel I need at this time.  Clarity of intent.  I have vast experience with intentions fulfilling themselves.  That happens constantly.  Moment by moment.  Now the trick is to be clear about what intentions I'm setting so I can invite the universe to manifest something truly wonderful... instead of something sporadic, even tepid, which is what sometimes happens in my life as I move my intention from one thing to another... as my attention wavers.

"Of course, the best way to have all your intentions realized is to align your intentions with the cosmic intent, to create harmony between what you intend and what the universe intends for you.   Once that congruence comes into being, you'll find that synchronicity takes on a larger role in your life.  The best way to create that harmony is by nurturing an attitude of simple gratitude.  Acknowledge your gratitude for everything in your life.  Give thanks for your place in the cosmos and for the opportunity you have to further the destiny we all share." 

Sounds great. 

Off to experience and state my gratitude.. and to focus on my intentions.  That's a great use of my time tonight before retiring for the evening. 

Inviting Radiance

Ah.  This is an Authenticity Invitation that I just love:  Inviting Radiance.  YES!  Monday's going to be a glorious day. 

I'm a being of light... and my light emanates from the core of my being... and suffuses the universe with warmth.

Merriam-Webster defines radiant as:  "marked by or expressive of love, confidence, or happiness"

I'm definitely in the mood to be marked by or expressive of love, confidence, or happiness.  All three at once too.  Nothing impeding me.  Sounds just perfect.

Mudra for Transcending Anger and Preventing Headache

Although I'm not feeling angry or experiencing a headache at this time, I'm practicing this mudra, because it's the one that presented itself today when I looked to see if holding a mudra would be favorable. 

"This mudra works by creating an emotional equilibrium.  The pressure points stimulated with your thumbs release anger and have an immediate calming effect," writes Sabrina Mesko in her book Healing Mudras:  Yoga for Your Hands.

"Lift your hands to the level of your forehead.  Make fists with the palms facing outward and keep the thumbs stretched pointing toward each other.  Press the spot on your brow between your eyes and nose and focus your eyes at the tip of your nose."

"It's immediate and powerful effect will help you channel your anger inao a positive outcome or decision."

I have been experiencing a sense of frustration as I've sought clarity on my next phase of my work.  Frustration's a second cousin of anger, so i'm going to practice this mudra with an intention to release the frustration energies and invite clarity and focus.

OK. Lots of yawning.  Lots of energies moving out.  I held the mudra for about 3 minutes.  Find my arm muscles fatigue easily when I hold them in static postures up high like that.  So I am getting the added bonus of reminding myself to build my muscle stamina. 

I definitely feel a sense of tensions easing.  Might practice this one again in a while.  I don't remember ever having done this mudra before.  Cool.  Another gesture/practice to add to my energy work possibilities.

I have 3 mudra books.  One by Gertrud Hirschi and two by Sabrina Mesko.  I recommend all three highly.  I get so much out of working with them. 

Don't Take Anything Personally

It's funny.    I was thinking about how from time to time I do in fact feel inclined to take things personally.... and this key principle arose to remind me that it is completely and utterly not about me ... whatever anyone does.  It's always all about them. 

No need to take anything personally.
