3 Steps to Harness the Power of Intention and Align with Energy

Every day, we are surrounded by energy. Truly we are energy in perceivable form. But enough with the quantum physics. Let’s talk about how we can harness the power that is within and all around us to create amazing results.  

First, let’s get an image of how energy is leveraged by intention to maximize what we are desiring to create. Tug of war is the perfect example. If there is one really huge football player on one side of the rope, no matter how much I pull on my side, it’s not moving. If I align with 8 other people, it doesn’t matter how big or strong each of us is. The alignment of our energy and the common intention of moving the rope is going to create results.  

Setting your intention and aligning with the energy around us is exactly the same. I use the Akashic Records to help harness a greater portion of energy, by calling in my spirit guides and the Record Keepers to be on my side of the rope. I use these three steps, every day. Actually, they come up many times every day, whenever I am faced with a decision, I use these steps in varying degrees.  

1. Pause and breathe in clarity. I start my day in this space, as I meditate and allow guidance to flow in. But this does not have to look any specific way to be effective. You can integrate this into your morning meditation, or you can do it with your eyes open as you are sitting in traffic. Stop paying attention to whatever is irrelevant at the moment and take in a deep belly breath. Feel the air go all the way down into your pelvis and exhale. Do not put pressure on yourself to find a solution, or release anything. Just breathe deeply and after you do this a few times, you will notice that your energy will begin to align with your highest best expression and experience. Now I remind you, that does not always mean that you get what you want, when you want it. It means that the energy of the Universe conspires with your energy to create opportunity for you to follow your most exalted path.  
2. Use your power of discernment. This is where I ask my guides to direct my attention to the messages that are most useful to me in the moment. If you do not have an on-going conversation with your guides, then just open your awareness a little broader than it was before. You can do this by gazing at a spot on the wall and allowing your awareness to stretch beyond the limits you experienced when you first started gazing. This is the space where I call in my power of discernment to assist me in identifying what is going to serve me and my intention most effectively. This process is akin to selecting between 2 entrees at dinner. They both sound good, but one will leave you feeling unsatisfied and most likely lead you to the freezer with a spoon looking for that pint of ice cream later. You have access to the truth that will support you and serve – even when you prefer not to listen.  
3. Take aligned action. Now that you have rallied the troops and aligned your energy and intention, it is time to take action toward that energy. If we were on the tug of war rope and we all dropped the rope and started walking away, that is not going to accomplish our objective. Taking action doesn’t have to mean moving mountains. It can be small steps toward the goal and intention that are going to add up to huge momentum when viewed together. If you are uncertain about exactly what the next step should be, don’t stress… any step is better than none, so take it, no matter how small it feels.  

Instead of moving blindly through life, you now have a game plan to follow that is completely doable! Don’t allow fear to paralyze you any longer. You have a super powerful team of energy and guides on your side of the rope. Allow them to do some of the work with you, so you can lean into your intentions with flow and command the results that you desire!
