December 2024: Doing With Intention
By Melinda Cahill
Doing with intention: that's the theme I see being highlighted for December 2024.
Whatever you do this month, do it with intention. It's not about just being mindful. It's bigger than being mindful because it's about honoring the intent behind the doing.
- For example, when you're brushing your teeth, do it with the intent of to wanting to take good care of your body.
- If you're sweeping or raking leaves, set the intent to clean your environment or home. Don't do things as just meaningless chores. Think about why you're doing that action. Does it have a deeper meaning? What's the outcome you hope to gain from doing that chore? What's the reason or the motivation behind the action?
- If you get into an argument, learn to recognize the intent you're holding. If you recognize your intent is to end the argument, it'll be easier to stop participating and to let go of feeling that you must win or prove your point.
- If you're out shopping and want to toss a donation into the Salvation Army bucket, do it with intent. Toss the money in with the intent that it reaches someone in need and will help brighten their day and bring them joy and peace.
When you wake up in the morning this month, take a moment to ask yourself what intentions do I have for the day? You'll learn more about yourself from this practice. You'll learn more about who you want to be while you're on this planet and in this lifetime.
A good book to read this month is "The Power of Intention" by Wayne Dryer.
The Winter Solstice 2024
The winter solstice in the Northern Hemisphere will take place on December 21, 2024. It's the shortest day of the year. Honor the day by lighting a fire or a candle or a stick of incense. And when you do, let your intent be to bring more light to this world.
