✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Hello lovely people,

I have been reflecting on some ways we can support you all through our recovery-oriented way of connecting on the forums, and thought that creating a weekly intention setting/reflection conversation could be really helpful. 🥰

Intention-setting can allow us to more mindfully focus our attention onto the things we would like to explore more of (without too much pressure!). And when we do so within community, it can help us to feel more supported as we go about exploring new habits and ideas.

Now, this isn't about showing up perfectly or reaching all of our 'goals' overnight, but rather, exploring what is possible, what we enjoy, and how we can feel more safely connected to ourselves.

So, what will this look like exactly?

1. Set your intention for the week. For example, I am going to practice allowing myself 5 minutes a day to slow down.

2. Reflect. You can do this throughout the week via your notes app, a journal, or here on the forums. *Notice what feels good, what doesn't, and why.

3. Share the following Sunday. Let us know what you were able to explore and what came up for you/if you have any questions or need some support.

Remember - there is no right or wrong! It's so fine if all you did was hold the intention in the back of your mind - change takes time. I would love you all to have fun with this and to explore things from a place of curiosity and compassion. 💛

@AuntGlow I've tried many times but right now I just can't do this. I'm sorry.

You've just reminded me that I've gotta stop leaving lists up to Santa and get on board the organisation train @Shaz51 @tyme 👏

Ah, just showing up - yes. Often, our presence alone is enough. I like this intention a lot, thank you @Appleblossom 💛

Wonderful, rest is so important. I look forward to checking in on Sunday and seeing how your mind and body are feeling after some reprieve @starsmile 💗

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

I am sure you will feel SO good when you have sorted through some more things, in my experience, it helps with mental clarity a lot.

@Cuddlebear Thank you so much for sharing this with us. I can't imagine how overwhelming this must feel for you... know that we are all here to support you, okay? I think the intention to survive is more than enough right now. I am keeping all my fingers crossed that you find a place soon. 🤞💛

This is a wonderful intention. I know going to work can be really hard, but we're here to chat whenever you need to discuss or decompress after a big day @Captain24. 💗

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Yes! Dropping into your anchors is a great idea as well. Have you explored this at all today? @Captain24 💛

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Yes of course, @PeppyPatti!! I apologise for not tagging, but you are absolutely welcome - everyone is! I would love to hear what your intention for this week is? 🥰

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

That's okay, lovely. You don't have to at all. Let's chat more on your thread. @MissGremlin 💗
