Intention as Real Magic
Sitting down to connect with you through Mindfood is always such a pleasure for me. As I began to settle in, I centered my consciousness design on my pleasure with the practice of pleasure stacking. Inspired by S.J. Scott’s book Habit Stacking, pleasure stacking invites us to attune to our yes energy and opt into as many of those practices as possible.
So here I sit on the couch in the sun, with my steadfast writing companion of 16 years, Einstein. Sharing space with my cat is a lovely pleasure, but I didn’t stop there. I am wearing my favorite cozy wrap to keep the Maine soon-to-be winter at bay and sipping on some broth while I listen to Wayne Shorter’s transcendent jazz–pleasure stacking at its best, y’all.
I could be hunched over my computer somewhere just trying to hurriedly check “sending a Mindfood” off my list, but just checking connecting with you off my list is never my intention.
My intention is always to be in my most opulent and inspired energy when we connect this way.
Intention is how we organize the potential of our lifeforce.
My intention is that peace is my pace and pleasure is my path.
Does it feel that way all the time? Not a chance. But I know that when I align my intention with peace and pleasure there is a lot better chance that is how I will experience my existence.
Our intention organizes our doingness around our beingness. Therefore, if the intention of our beingness is peace and pleasure, it is more likely the action of our doingness will reflect that.
All it took was for me to attune to my bliss and opt in to pleasure stacking aligned with my intention as I connect here with you.
Intention is real magic.
I invite you to design your consciousness by aligning your intention with the beingness and doingness you seek. Do it up! Play with extreme pleasure stacking. Be the experiment. Notice the feedback loop. Discern and refine.
Your consciousness design is yours. Make it extraordinary.
Align and flow with the real magic of your intentions. If you feel called, reply to this Mindfood and share your real magic with me.
We are all mirrors and messengers after all.
Here’s Einstein in the sun next to me as I write in front of one of my absurd and delightful intentions: a white Solstice tree. I can smell the natural balsam fir we decorated as a family in the other room–a pleasure I forgot to mention earlier as I reflected on my pleasure stacking.
May pleasure beget pleasure in your world, awesome one.
