Fresh Vision for Intention Setting 2024

 I was first introduced to the concept of intention setting with Dr. Dwayne Dyer’s book, “The Power of Intention” almost 20 years ago. 

I was already a therapist, but at times still felt a little green—a little inexperienced—as I continued on my own path of personal insight and discovery. 

I had been working in my field for about 7 years. I knew about limiting beliefs, self-defeating thoughts, the power that words held—whether spoken, written or thought. 

I thought I understood emotions, thoughts and behaviors, but then I would get tripped up in my own personal life or a new client would walk through the door with a story I have never heard and I would have to figure out how to work differently to meet this client’s need. 

One thing seemed very clear, I needed to be more mindful about the words I used with myself and others.
