Take Action: Suggested Activities for Transformation

  • Print the one-page summary of simple principles available on the first page of this lesson. Select one or more of these sets of principles to play with. Explore how you can use these inspiring tools to support your purpose and intentions, and to powerfully transform your life and our world for the better.
  • Notice when you get caught up in the complexities of a particular relationship or situation. Remember then to stop and take a breath. Let go of the complexities for a moment. Take a deep breath with everyone involved. Then remind yourself and all involved of the simple principles and intentions underlying what you all really want in the challenge you are facing. Invite everyone to remember their needs and their shared deeper intentions.
  • Be aware of when you are choosing to overly focus on the negative things happening in our world. Set an intention that when you catch yourself going there again, you will choose to shift and open to inspiration in some way.
  • Develop a joy meditation where you open to the love and joy that is always there within. Consider using a powerfully joyful or moving experience from your past as an anchor to bring you back to this beautiful state. Be brave in following your passion in life.
  • Make a commitment to send a mental or psychic hello and to breathe sacred love with people you come across during your day. Remind yourself frequently of your intention to feel more connected and more in love with all around you.
  • Sign up for an inspirational news service or magazine to bring more joy, hope, and inspiration into your life. See below for ideas.
