SETTING INTENTIONS FOR 2022
THIS WEEK'S NEWSLETTER ENCOURAGES A MOMENT OF REFLECTION AND INTENTION-SETTING AS WE TRANSITION FROM 2023 TO 2024, ESPECIALLY IN OUR LOVE LIVES. WHETHER YOU'RE SINGLE OR IN A RELATIONSHIP, WE EXPLORE THE IMPORTANCE OF CRYSTALLISING YOUR DESIRES FOR YOUR IDEAL PARTNER OR FUTURE RELATIONSHIP.
As we bid farewell to this year and look forward to 2024, it's the perfect time for reflection and setting intentions. Whether you're single and searching or already in a relationship, this is a powerful opportunity to get clear on what you want your love life to look like in the year ahead.
For the Singles: Crafting Your Ideal Partner
If you're single and ready to meet someone special, consider this a golden opportunity to define your desires. Just like I did three years before meeting my partner, take a moment to write down your vision of an ideal partner. Focus not on superficial traits, but on their character, how they make you feel, and the dynamics of your potential relationship. Here's what I wrote three years ago:
"My ideal partner is someone who inspires me through their actions and challenges me through their thoughts. They're kind and compassionate towards others and passionate about what they do, both personally and professionally. We share the same fascination with life & its meaning as well as values in terms of family and spirituality. First and foremost, we have a soul connection coupled with a deeply mental, emotional and physical connection. We compliment one another, and encourage each other to grow not only within the relationship but as individuals. He is someone I can see a future with although that future is not predetermined and instead open to the possibility of the unknown. We are not just life partners, but best friends."
The Power of Detail
When visualising your ideal partner, the key is to be as descriptive and detailed as possible. Think about how they make you feel, their approach to life, and how you interact with each other. This exercise isn't about listing physical attributes but about defining the essence of the person you wish to share your life with.
For Those in Relationships: Envisioning the Future
If you're already in a relationship, this reflective exercise is equally valuable. Use this time to consider what you want your relationship to look like in the coming year. What aspects do you want to strengthen? How do you wish to grow together? This is about setting intentions for deeper connection and mutual growth.
Setting Intentions for 2024
As you reflect on the past year and set intentions for the next, remember to be kind to yourself. Celebrate your growth, learn from your experiences, and step into 2024 clarity. Think of this exercise as a step towards creating the relationship you desire and deserve.
Here's to a reflective end to 2023 and an intention-filled start to 2024.
Until next year!
