11 Ways Intentions Make Your Life Better
What are intentions for?
An intention is having an aim, a plan, a goal, or a purpose in mind. It is a determination in a specific way in order to attract a particular outcome.
When you set an intention, you go about something with a specific mindset. Your focus is sharp in order to achieve an outcome. You aren’t scattered or forgetting your purpose in why you are performing an action.
You might set intentions every day and not know it!
Do you plan to eat more whole foods and less sugar so you feel better?
Do you set a bedtime so you wake up with good energy?
Do you set out to play with your kids or pets so they feel loved and cared for?
Your plan for a specific outcome is your intention.
An intention is more than a plan; it’s a plan coming from your heart to attract a higher vibration into your life.
When you set an intention, you act in high-vibe and positive ways to attract the outcome. You stay focused on your intention, and this raises your energy. When your energy is vibrating at high frequencies, you happily invite your outcome into your life.
Why do mandalas have intentions?
The mandala paintings at Mandala Art Circle are made with an intention, that’s why there’s a quote associated with the artwork. The quote is usually chosen first, and the entire painting is made to resonate with that quote.
That’s why it’s energy-infused art; because the energy of the intention is infused into the art as it’s made.
When you put this art in your office or living room, you’re bringing high-vibe energy into your space.
How can intentions make your life better?
I first ran into intentions in a yoga class where the instructor suggested to make an intention before class.
The yoga instructor said, “set an intention to make the class better in the ways you want to improve, such as staying focused on your breath or staying aware of the present moment.”
Intentions may also be set for saying a prayer to a loved one.
Intentions can be a phrase of inspiration and motivation.
Or a wish to the universe for a dream to come true.
Intention-setting in yoga made me more focused, more disciplined, and more purposeful in my actions.
I felt like more myself than ever before, just because I made intentions for a yoga class!
I always include intention-setting in my yoga classes, and everyone enjoys setting intentions, no matter how small.
Now, I make every mandala and every piece of art with intention. It’s healing for me, and it attracts healing energy to the art.
This art attracts healing energy to you and to your living space.
