If it doesn't, it is a good time to bolster our own self-love, our own knowing that we are a gift to the world.
Did you know that in utero, a baby's
heart, and even the stomach and intestines, are formed form the
neural tube? That means that there are brain cells in the heart as
well as the gut. So it's not just a woo-woo idea that the heart knows
a lot.
Did you know that the electro-magnetic
field of the heart reaches at least 10 times further than the brain's electro-magnetic field?
I think it's fantastic that science is starting to figure out how to measure things we couldn't before.You Have Felt It Yourself
We have all had times when we felt in the flow, felt connected to a person, pet, place, or activity.
That shows us that Love lives in side us.
And the great thing is that we can access that feeling almost any time we want! We can practice it and make it more a part of our lives.
Practice Makes It Deeper and Richer
And the more we let the love inside us express in all we do and say, the more people want to be around us. And pretty soon, someone who was once lonely can have some good friends.Now I'm not talking about being a doormat, or being nice to people who are hurting you.
I am talking about inviting the love that you have felt in the past or present to become part of your identity, part of your practice, part of your life. Why not?
I mean, has worry worked for you so far?
A Simplified Heart Meditation
One of the most wonderful tools I know for that is Heart Coherence Meditation.It was developed by HeartMath Institute.
Take a break from it for a few minutes at a time.
1. Choose a safe place when you will have no distractions.
2. Sit down and remember a time you felt love. Pick someone or something that has no negative charge on it.
For me, thinking of my cat always gets the love welling up big time.3. Just sit and enjoy that feeling.
4. After a while, you may notice it that you are feeling great. You may notice that your thoughts are more positive, and your worries are not as big as they were a few minutes before.
