Awakening to the New Year: creating conscious intentions

With Caverly Morgan recorded on January 7, 2018.

Found our teachings useful? Help us continue our work and support your teachers with a donation. Here’s how.

When we move on behalf of the recognition of our true nature, a conscious intention becomes a way to align all aspects of our lives with our deepest understanding and recognition of truth. A conscious intention is seeped in possibility. While it may even look similar on some level, on the surface, to a conditioned goal, it is born of different soil. It is not what, it is how. Conscious intention is a reflection of the infinite possibility exhibited in all of life. It is grounded in the recognition of our wholeness. It is enlivened by Love.
