✨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. 💛

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

@PeppyPatti I hope you enjoyed getting your hair plaited. I imagine it will look amazing.

@AuntGlow apologies for my delay in responding, I think this thread is a great idea, I am going to try and participate though my motivation is very low.

I think my intention needs to be to find a job.

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Yes @PeppyPatti with my auto immune disease attacking my liver, spleen and gall bladder my specialist wants me to do strength training and lots of walking. So I'm trying to be good

In response to: Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

that's terrible @Jacques

How is your progress ? Do you have days of having to stay in bed ?

How is your energy ?

@AuntGlow @Glisten @ENKELI @Shaz51

In response to: Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

No @PeppyPatti more just really uncomfortable, they press on my lungs making it sometimes hard to breath. And it is possible to have my spleen rupture if it swells too much. Some days I have to take it easy and the discomfort is bad.

From what I have read it will be a progressive disease. There is no cure. Just management.

In response to: Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

Re: ✨Sunday Intention Setting✨

If you manage it well could you live a good life ?

I'm sorry I don't know much about it however do ont mean to be rude.
