Intentional Transformation: a path to wholeness and healing

Leave a comment

Intentional transformation brings healing and wholeness – we just need to make room for it.

Refusal or resistance to change can be a major obstacle to transformation. We must be open to the kaleidoscope of witness that is all around us.

We often cling to our ways and habits convincing ourselves they are our only choices. We often go back and forth between fear and doubt resisting anything new or different – this may occur through decisions or indecisiveness.

Daily Reminders

  • Watching ice melt into water is a cue for us to practice transformation.
  • When we witness the movement from sickness to health, we are reminded of the recuperative powers of spiritual transformation. 
  • Looking at photographs of ourselves when we were younger, we vow to be happy with all the changes we have undergone.
  • Blessed is the Sacred Source who lives in and through all of our transformations.

 

Prayer Mantra

Breathe in: As Spirit transforms me…

Breathe out: May I transform the world.
