Power of Intentions

Rooting Your Life in Clarity, Purpose, and Energy

Words are spells. Vows are spells. Poems, thoughts, texts, emails—each one carries energy. Each one shapes your reality. You mold your world with every spell, conscious or not. And when you realize this, when you become intentional with that power, you shift from living on autopilot to consciously co-creating your life.

Intention is more than a moment before a ritual or a goal scrawled in a journal. It’s the current running beneath your choices, your movement, your being. It lives in how you speak to yourself. How you respond when life feels tender. How you hold your energy in spaces where you once felt invisible. Intention is how you choose to return to yourself over and over again.

I use intention as a living, breathing part of my daily rhythm. I’m not trying to control everything that happens. I use it to stay in alignment with what I value, who I am, and how I choose to feel.

What Are Intentions?

An intention is a conscious decision to embody a specific energy or quality in how you live, act, and respond. It’s not just something you say. It’s something you hold. It’s the frequency that guides your behavior and shapes your perception of what’s unfolding around you.

Intentions are energetic anchors. They don’t come from pressure. They come from truth. When I say I am clear, I’m not waiting for things to make sense. I’m aligning myself with clarity. I become the vessel that receives direction because I already cleared the space for it.

Unlike goals, which focus on future outcomes and metrics, intentions move through the present moment. Goals ask what do I want to accomplish. Intentions ask who am I choosing to be as I move through this experience.

Intentions change the way I move through my day. They keep me grounded in how I want to feel. They influence the way I eat, how I speak, how I listen, how I rest, how I create. They help me choose with intention instead of reacting out of habit.

When I say I am peaceful, I’m not pretending everything feels calm. I’m choosing to engage from that energy anyway.
When I say I am open to receive, I’m not passively hoping—I’m preparing the space for what’s already on its way.
When I say I am guided, I’m not looking for proof—I’m trusting the connection that already exists.

Intentions touch every part of life.

In my health—I am vibrant, strong, and listening to what my body needs
In my relationships—I am clear, loving, and willing to grow through honest connection
In my work—I am creatively fulfilled, aligned with purpose, and divinely supported
In my spiritual path—I am present with my truth, protected in my becoming, and connected to source

Intentions are not affirmations I repeat just to feel good. They are declarations I live by.

Why I Set Intentions Every Day

There were years where I moved from urgency and reaction. Even when I felt grounded in my heart, I wasn’t always grounded in my energy. I poured into others, rushed through tasks, stayed busy trying to prove I was doing enough. Underneath it all, I was craving clarity, softness, space.

What shifted me was intention.

Now I begin the day with a pulse of purpose. I choose what energy I want to embody, and I return to it. When my thoughts spiral, I redirect them through my intention. When I feel overwhelmed, I don’t shame myself—I pause, breathe, and re-center.

Intentions help me stay present in my truth. They guide me to act from alignment rather than fear. They keep my decisions rooted in clarity, not urgency. When my energy feels scattered, intention brings it back into focus.

I say I am balanced and I start making decisions that reflect that.
I say I am enough and I stop trying to prove something that’s already true.
I say I am here and I stop escaping into what-ifs and what-next.

Intentions deepen my sense of choice. They remind me that even when I can’t change the situation, I can shift how I meet it.

How to Form and Speak an Intention

An intention begins long before words are chosen. It begins with awareness. With the willingness to pause, breathe, and notice what’s stirring beneath the surface. Sometimes that awareness arrives as an ache. Sometimes it arrives as clarity. Sometimes it comes in the middle of the noise, whispering a new way of being you didn’t know you were ready for.

To form an intention, I start by asking myself what energy I’m ready to embody. I don’t chase what I think I should feel. I tune in to what my body is already trying to communicate. Am I craving peace or softness? Am I ready to speak up or let something go? Am I ready to see myself differently or allow something to unfold without force?

An intention isn’t a wish. It isn’t a command. It isn’t a goal I hope to reach. It’s a declaration of how I choose to meet the moment. It centers me. It realigns me. It shifts me into a place of choice, even when circumstances around me feel outside of my control.

I keep the language simple. Clear. Present. I start with phrases like I am, I choose, I allow, I receive, I trust, or I release. These words ground me in the now. They help me speak from alignment rather than lack.

Instead of saying I want to feel less anxious, I say I am grounded and safe in this moment.
Instead of saying I need more time to rest, I say I choose to honor my body’s rhythm today.
Instead of saying I hope things work out, I say I trust that what is meant for me is already unfolding in divine timing and alignment.

Intentions are not meant to cover up my truth. They’re meant to name it, hold it, and gently guide it toward transformation. I don’t need to sound spiritual or polished. My words don’t have to be public to be powerful. They only need to be honest.

I form my intentions when I journal, when I speak them aloud before my day begins, when I write them on a mirror, when I breathe them through my heart space in meditation, in the shower, before a meeting, or even silently as I move through a room. I let it be my response to old thoughts when they rise. I use it as a reminder when I feel tired, lost, or disconnected.

There’s no single right way to do this. What matters most is that my intention feels real. I don’t have to believe it perfectly. I start with my willingness to hold it. Even when my voice shakes. Even when resistance rises. Even when I don’t know how it’s all going to unfold. That willingness is enough.

Each time I form and express an intention, I return to myself. I remember what I’m here to embody. I reclaim my agency. I bring my energy into alignment with my deeper truth. And that alignment shapes everything.

This practice is about presence. I’m anchoring into what already exists inside of me. I’m saying to my body, my energy field, and my future, This is how I move now.

How I Work with Intentions

My practice is intuitive and fluid. I don’t force it. I let it rise from what I need in the moment.

Some mornings I journal. I write a few lines to anchor the day. Other times I sit in stillness and ask my body what it’s asking to feel. I speak my intentions out loud. I write them on sticky notes. I let them find me in the middle of a conversation or while I’m boiling water for tea.

I don’t chase perfect wording. I listen for resonance. When I work with intention, I speak in the now.

I am nourished
I am steady and focused
I am creative and fully expressed
I am compassionate with myself and others
I am flowing with divine timing

I don’t ask for permission. I claim it. I say it until I feel it in my body. I say it until my nervous system believes me.

What This Practice Has Shifted in My Life

I’ve moved through burnout, disappointment, grief, and change. And every time I felt unmoored, intention gave me something solid to stand on. Not to fix everything. But to remind me I’m still here. Still choosing. Still guided.

I’ve become more present in my relationships. More rooted in my purpose. More honest with myself. I’m not waiting to feel ready. I am already aligned with the next version of myself. I am meeting her in real time through these choices.

I attract what matches my energy because I walk in the energy of what I desire. I no longer force or chase. I magnetize. That shift has brought ease into places that used to feel heavy.

The Invitation

You don’t need a fancy ritual. You don’t need to know exactly what to say. Just ask yourself, What energy do I want to live inside today. Then feel into it. Let the words come. Let them be simple.

I am safe
I am protected and well
I am releasing what no longer aligns with my highest good
I am open to receive beyond what I can yet see

Say it with your whole body. Let it echo through your choices. Let it guide how you move, speak, and hold space for yourself today.
