✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Good afternoon, forum friends! 🌞☕️

@BlueBay What you have shared makes complete sense, and I find myself in that position when I am feeling vulnerable as well. Beautiful noticing. How has time with little A been? 💛

@lonemushroom Oh my goodness! That is INCREDIBLE. I am so happy you have rediscovered dance. Please tell me more - what style of dancing? And what are you noticing about yourself when you are in that space? Also, putting effort into self-care sounds so nourishing. How did it feel to practice noticing throughout the past couple of weeks? PS: so nice to reconnect here! 💖

@peaceandsafety Thank you for sharing all of your self-witnessing. I can definitely hear a theme around feeling lonely and I am curious to know if you have noticed anything more around this theme throughout the past couple of weeks?

@NightFury I know there's a lot coming up for you at the moment surrounding change... what have you noticed about your inner resilience?

@Appleblossom It sounds like you're able to sit in that space of noticing a lot more lately, especially at chuch, with music, and your interpersonal dynamics. I am curious to know what else you noticed this week?

@Kashmina Well, I am very proud of you for knowing what was right for you - it takes courage to step away from something and put our own wellbeing/inner-compass first.

Your volunteering sounds like so much fun!! I am really glad you are connecting with your joy here. What are you noticing about yourself when you're in that space?

@ENKELI I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your uncle... how have you been caring for yourself this week? And have you had much support? 💛

@Dimity "Knowing something is missing means I can think about it and maybe act on it." - yes, that's absolutely helpful insight to have, and the beauty of bearing witness to ourselves.

A timer for scrolling sounds very helpful. Maybe the noticing could begin with when you pick up your phone? And ah, the social dynamics and heirarchies would be really challenging... keeping within this theme, what do you notice you need when you're in that space?

@Captain24 curious to know if you have noticed anything new too? ☺️

I guess after my GP appointment today. I notice my moods and what is different to normal. I guess it’s a good thing that I can notice that things are happening just not the normal way. @AuntGlow

@AuntGlow I've noticed...

That I have hit a point where I am really struggling, and feeling really down and flat and burn out, but I'm still showing up (even when it's hard and I don't particularly want to). I've noticed that it's impacting on my capacity at work, and while it does frustrate me and I do slip into self-blame, and into worrying what others think of me (my colleagues, my principal, my supervisors), the rest of the time, I am able to sit in a space of...maybe not acceptance, but acknowledgement. I see it and can acknowledge that I am not at my best.

It is really great that you're able to notice these changes, and if compassion and curiosity are brought into the picture... then being able to support those changes is even more accessible. @Captain24 💛

Thank you for sharing this with us. @NightFury 💛

This is such a wonderful, balanced reflection - and that's it: acknowledgement. How can we allow those experiences to be there, without judgement? To welcome them and embrace them as much as possible? 🥰

Hello my beautiful forum friends. 💛

Firstly, I want to thank you for showing up to this thread with so much openness and a genuine willingness to explore your intentions with me.

Witnessing your growth and self-reflections over the past 6 months has been incredibly heartwarming and inspiring. 🥹

So with that, I invite you to explore the intention to thank you.

Where can you thank yourself for showing up this year? 💖

✨ Oh, and @rav3n has offered a wonderful bonus intention to close out 2025 as well!!

"What can you explore releasing to enter the new year just that tiny bit lighter, brighter, and more hopeful?"

We are very much looking forward to your reflections. 🥰

@NightFury @Captain24 @Dimity @Cuddlebear @Snowie @Oaktree @Till23 @Eve7 @Appleblossom @Bunniekins @heartathome @ENKELI @TAB @PeppyPatti @Sunnyside226 @Kashmina @MissGremlin @Shaz51 @AlwaysMyself @Chasingsunsets @TeaPositive @MotherDuck @peaceandsafety @creative_writer @GezzaP @Blackcloud @lonemushroom @ENKELI @BlueBay @Cuddlebear @DownMoreThanUp @SmilingGecko @Glisten @avant-garde @Bow

@tyme @Jynx @Ru-bee

For finally realising the extent of the help I need and persevering to find that help.

That's all I can muster right now.

Thanks @AuntGlow

That's perfect, thank you so much for sharing. I am proud of you. @peaceandsafety 💖

@AuntGlow

I would like to thank myself for not quitting my studies this year, even when it was hard and overwhelming.

As for what I will release? I think I will try and release feeling so stressed and anxious and just remind myself that I am ok and safe and that I am capable.

@rav3n

yesss so proud of you for getting through your studies!! @Oaktree releasing that anxiousness is one i'd like to release too, thanks for sharing 💗
