Integrate your intentions with ease & enjoy the process of creating a new & successful living pattern
Tap into your inner creativity to Imprint your inner longings for 2020
Any meaningful change begins when you notice what you would like to do differently in a non-judging way. Creativity through the right brain activities of art, crafts, writing, music and walking in nature can turn ones illusive longing into obvious statements before goal planning even begins. Leading through a right brain activity can tap into all bodies of function creating a balanced approach. Activating goals through integration of all bodies of human function can create a living force and increase the will to achieve them. The functioning human bodies includes the physical, cultural, perceptual, emotional and mental bodies.
It’s time to harness the mental thinking mind and give it guidance to support a fuller wholesome experience. More on how the a dominant focus on the mental mind can influence self-judgement below.
Resolution statements taps only into your mental body. This mental body has been culturally educated to respond to the world through the following reactions:
What this means for you for becoming the change you want to be
Resolution statements activated from the left-brain may focus on short term goals and not lead to last change that integrates lifestyle. Including aspects of right brain activities can lead to the integration of lifestyle change leading to long term change. With a focus only on the mental body it generally becomes its own driving force of single mindedness that lacks balance and support of all functioning systems. It can be controlling and eventually may become a source of depression.
Why? Change declarations from thought function may only be influenced by outside stimulus, I/you should and self-image. Long lasting and life-enriching change comes from the inside and goes beyond self-image and stimulus. Meaningful change grows through a system of open learning, not through a closed system of I/you should and should nots.
How to begin integrating change verses forcing change through concepts

The ease of learning is integrated through the experience following a guided pattern. Awareness through intention and action.

What is stopping you from moving to a life of more joy?
The thinker
- If you hesitate as you believe you are not creative, go beyond this thought and gather together some magazines,glue, scissors and some paper. Create a collage mixing pictures and words that speak to you.
- If you tell yourself you are dominantly a thinker, go beyond this thought and gather up some of your favorite magazines, glue, scissors and some paper. Create a collage using words and include pictures that speak to you.
- If you cannot devote this time to be adventuresome and connect to yourself and growth, pause and make a commitment and do it anyhow. This is as important as eating, sleeping, and socializing, etc. Perhaps even more important as it is the point of clarity and balance in our natures. It is invaluable learning and guidance that comes from within.
