Season 2 Episode 01 Show Notes: How to Live Intentionally
/
In this episode, we explore how to define our purpose and live intentionally by bringing our deeply-rooted values and beliefs to the forefront of everyday life — from decision-making to action. This week’s challenge? Start your intentional living journey by writing down and speaking aloud your daily intentions.
Defining Intentional Living
The actual definition of intentional living is “any lifestyle based on an individual or group’s conscious attempts to live according to their values and beliefs. These can include lifestyles based on religious or ethical values, as well as coaching, personal transformation, and leadership training.”
Thrive Global says intentional living is “living the kind of life that makes you feel like you matter. A life that fulfills and enriches you every day.”
Capsule Life Podcast Re-Focus
So why did I want to focus on intentional living for this episode? Well, if you haven’t noticed yet, I recently did a rebrand and re-focus of my podcast. I launched it with the intention — pun intended — of finding joy through minimal living.
But I realize now that the minimal living focus was a bit too restrictive for my vision for this podcast and the content I want to create. So I broadened it to be finding joy through intentional living. Because I believe we can be our best selves when we’re living with intention, and I’m on a journey to learn how to live each day with intention, and reach down deep to pull from my values and beliefs in everything I do.
How Do We Live with Intention?
Define our purpose
Practice mindfulness and meditation
Get centered with gratitude
Recognize the power of the pause (or the sacred pause as Tara Brach puts it)
Ask yourself what brings you joy — and then do it
Tune into the podcast for more information and tips for how to live with intention and how to work intention setting into your normal routine.
