Creative Phrases of Intention
Reflection & Practice Guide
The Practice of Attention, Intention, and Action
The art of Creative Phrases of Intention is a loving and powerful process for purifying the heart, calming the mind, and restoring harmony within ourselves and the world around us. Each phrase becomes a bridge between awareness and action — a living vibration of goodwill that ripples through body, mind, and the field of consciousness itself.
This practice invites you to meet your experience with three simple, sacred steps: Attention, Intention, and Action. Together, they awaken your natural capacity to heal, create, and bless all beings through the power of awareness and word.
1. Attention — The Light of Awareness
Everything begins with attention. Before a phrase or prayer can carry healing, we must first see what asks to be healed.
Attention means gently noticing what is present — the sensations in the body, the tone of an emotion, the quiet thoughts underneath. It’s a compassionate seeing, not a fixing. If sadness lives in the stomach, fear trembles in the chest, or loneliness rests in the heart, we begin by acknowledging it: “This is what is here.” By simply bringing attention to the moment, the nervous system starts to relax. Awareness itself is already healing.
2. Intention — The Power of Creative Words
Once awareness has opened, we form a clear and loving intention. This is where your Phrases of Intention arise. They are gentle declarations that reorient energy toward love, clarity, and wholeness.
Examples:
• May my sadness be well.
• May peace fill this moment.
• I open to Pure Mind.
• May Love guide this breath.
A phrase of intention is not a command; it is a blessing — a sacred alignment with the truth of your being. By naming your intention, you bring spiritual order into emotional chaos. Each phrase becomes a creative act, reminding the mind and body of their original harmony.
3. Action — The Embodiment of Intention
Once your phrase is spoken, even silently, it asks to be lived. Action need not be grand or dramatic — it may be as simple as breathing gently, placing a hand on your heart, or smiling softly toward the feeling that once felt unbearable.
You might:
• Sit quietly and breathe the phrase in and out.
• Write it in your journal as a gentle affirmation.
• Whisper it while walking in nature.
• Share it silently with others who are suffering.
This is embodied compassion — your intention becoming movement, warmth, and care in the world. It completes the circle of transformation: from awareness, through loving creation, into wise and gentle action.
Living the Practice
When you practice Attention, Intention, and Action daily, your phrases evolve into a personal language of healing. Each time you repeat them with sincerity, they reshape the patterns of the nervous system, soften fear, and strengthen your sense of belonging in life.
Over time, the practice becomes effortless — a way of living rather than a technique. Your thoughts, words, and gestures begin to align with the flow of Pure Mind.
You become a quiet instrument of healing — a presence of love that blesses without effort.
“May every word I speak, think, or feel become a blessing for all beings.”
This is the essence of Creative Phrases of Intention — to speak from the heart of awareness so that Love may recognize itself through you.

Gentle Summary
Phases of Intention are living prayers of alignment. Each phrase — whispered, breathed, or felt silently — calls the body and mind back into harmony with awareness. They teach the nervous system to relax, the heart to open, and the mind to rest in its natural clarity.
Through these gentle moments, “I Am PURE” becomes not a belief, but a felt reality — peaceful, undefined, and whole. Each intention is a step from effort toward grace, from loneliness toward belonging, from self toward the Pure Mind that includes all. Love is everything.
