Setting an Intention

Sometime in late 2010 and early 2011, I started to make mediation a weekly practice.  I didn't succeed, but have been trying to make it a more recurring practice.  This also includes yoga.  Unlike meditating, I actually really like yoga because I can feel the effect it has on my body (I feel like butter after a really good yoga class). 
 
Overall, it's all about setting an intention and making time for both practices.  For the last several months, I've been trying to make meditation and yoga a practice again.  I told myself to try meditating for some time each day and that I'd participate in one yoga class a week.  I even went and purchased my own yoga mat today.
 
I will try again.  Have you set an intention to do something?

Heck yes...to improve my physical strength during weight lifting. My actions are very intentional and purposeful. This is the only way to gain and fully see results. The most important word here is "intentional"! Without it, we are wandering.

KV, I'm surprised that you're strength training. I'm glad to see that you're being very intentional about it.

Yes, losing weight. I have always been the fat sister for the past 8 years. I'm tired of being fat. I have lost 25 pounds already. Another 15 pounds and I just might be sessy!
