MEA Episode #2: Aligned Intentions = Aligned Year

Intro: In today’s episode we are talking about how to set effective, aligned intentions to have a wildly abundant year of self-love.

1. Review Talking Points – I’ll be talking about what is alignment, how to align, and how to manifest aligned intentions. Let’s dive in…
   1. Alignment
      1. Think of alignment as connected to your deepest sense of compassion, trust, authenticity, and fulfillment
      2. Cultivating your higher purpose

• Main purpose in life – awaken to love because in love you find:
  1. Compassion
  2. Acceptance
  3. Understanding
  4. Peace
  5. Happiness
  6. Liberation

1. Avoidable suffering of the mind – relate to ego and misalignment (reminder that ego isn’t the westernized understanding of it, narcissism, but more about the sense of ourselves that is I, me, mine à judgment, fear, separation, otherness – racism, bigotry, selfjudgement, survivor mentality, of the fittest, leave us more isolated – but it’s in the union of ourselves and with others that we experience transcendence and therefore become a co-creator of our lives.
2. How to know you are aligned:
   1. Manifestations turning reality
   2. Deep sense of peace and fulfillment in the moment

   1. The purpose behind it – come from worthiness
   2. Empowering language / “instead of…”
