✨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. 💛

@Shaz51  Hello 🙂 How are you? Hmmm this week I’m just going to focus on surviving the week and look for a new home to live as landlord wants our rental back. At risk of homelessness so trying to just survive and hopefully find somewhere to live. What about you?
