Intention: Transform

Hello readers,

Welcome to my blog! I wanted to start with a brief introduction to what Intention Transform is about and where it stems from so you can decide if this is something you want to follow.

Intention Transform is being created as a space for me to do some tracking of my personal journey to a healthier version of myself. Why create this as a blog? Well, because I’m a regular person with issues many others have, and I believe what I learn can benefit others and my transformation could potentially inspire others.

I decided to to call this Intention Transform, because of an activity we did at a previous job, where we had to select one word that described our intention for the work we were doing and engraved our word on intention bracelets. My word was and still is transform. For me, the intention to transform not only applied to my work life but also to my personal life. I not only wanted to have transformational conversations with the students I worked with, I also wanted to transform my mindset and outlook on life. I wanted to transform my body. I wanted to transform my eating habits. My list of things I want to transform/change/grow was endless. So as I began my journey to wellness, I pulled out my old bracelet, put it on, and reminded myself of all the intentions I had…and then I hit the ground running.

As I have been on this journey, I have noticed many transformations in myself. I think about weight differently, I view activity differently, I see my clothes fitting differently, I feel more energetic, and my mood is overall elevated. So now I want to embark on a new journey of putting myself in a vulnerable place and sharing my story with those of you who choose to continue reading or following. I’ll be honest, it is a little terrifying because I am going to share things I never thought I would share with anyone other than my physician. So join me on this journey if you so please.
