Purpose Pow Wows
Today let's look at another of the 14 Power Tools for Living On
Purpose -- Purpose Pow Wows.
A Purpose Pow Wow is a great way to combine some of the positive
attributes of a Purpose Practice and Purposeful Pivoting with
the Universal Laws of Attraction and Purposeful Creating.
I recommend conducting a Pow Wow whenever you have a new Purpose
Project that you want to launch as well as for anything that
seems to have lost its juice or when you feel your enthusiasm
waning.
They are also great to do for the pure fun and joy of doing one.
Start by picking a quiet, serene setting that you enjoy and in
which you feel good. Take whatever actions necessary to raise
your energy level to one of joy, satisfaction and fulfillment -
even bliss. This could include taking a brisk walk, listening to
uplifting music, playing with your pet, etc.
Take a moment to become clear on the focus and intention of the
Pow Wow. You may even want to write it down to bring more
clarity.
Now, take a few moments to breathe deeply, and with each long,
slow breath, feel your body relaxing. Continue like this until
you feel peaceful and serene, yet alert.
Next, bring your attention to the intention of the Pow Wow. You
might even want to state your intention out loud or in your
mind. What do you truly want from this intention? What does it
look and feel like upon completion. If it were to really turn
out beyond your wildest dreams, what would happen and what would
you be experiencing?
Hold onto the vision of this for several minutes, continuing to
create and expand it, while at the same time holding the results
lightly in your hands as though they were a fragile bird. In
this way you release any attachments you may have to the results
while still holding the intention of them.
Purposefully Play in this way for several minutes, allowing your
spirit to soar. If any thoughts or feelings of a distracting or
disempowering nature arise, see them like a hot air balloon
rising to the surface of your consciousness, and then release
them gently to drift away. Focus on your vision for what is
possible.
After 10-15 minutes, allow yourself to return to the present
moment, energized and refreshed, knowing that even now the
perfect resources are coming to you for the fulfillment of your
intention.
