Nothing is Mundane

Bringing your awareness to your solar plexus and heart, 'imprint' yourself here with your own radiance, presence and inner light. 

Feel that fill you, warm you, expand and light you up. Feel the love. Feel the warm strength. Relax. Let go of the thinking. Let this space be your priority at this moment, reconnecting with yourSelf. 

Stay in this space for as long as you need, and come back to it again and again whenever you feel stuck in the muck, are experiencing a challenge, stress, anxiety or overwhelm.

"Precious Child" by Tomasz Kopera

When the heart is warm, it helps birth healthy relating to self & others.

When the heart is constricted, old defensive patterns can dominate & trip us up. When the heart is constricted there is immaturity. When the heart is warm there is wisdom.

Just as physical death brings a transition from this realm to a higher vibrating realm, so does the death of a draining/hindering/stagnating,  belief/pattern/relationship also allow us to enter a new higher vibration of experience and possibility.

The River ~ John O'Donohue

LISTEN:

"A river blends music of movement with an enduring and accompanying depth of stillness. Again its journey is always out of silence, and this silence dwells deep in the river too. If only our lives could achieve, or indeed allow, such grace and elegance. If we could but find a rhythm of being which could balance a contemplative grace, a poetry of motion and an accompanying stillness and silence, our pilgrimage through this world would flow in beauty through the most ragged and forsaken heartlands of confusion and dishevelment. It would continue to hold a clear flow-line between the memory and depth of the earth and the eternal fluency of the ocean and never lose the passion of flowing towards the ever new promise of the future.

Though a river maintains a line of direction, it somehow turns still, fixed space into the embrace of a flowing circle of presence. It gives itself to the urgency of becoming but never at the cost of disowning its origin. It engages the world while belonging always secretly within its memory and still strives forward into the endless flow of emerging possibility. " from Divine Beauty by John O'Donohue

The ability to receive love seems to be a much larger obstacle within many people than has been acknowledged. Most people I've encountered, including myself, don't have real love and intimacy until they are truly open to receiving it. Until that time, they consciously or unconsciously choose partners not capable of intimacy, not available in some way, or they themselves push love away or sabatoge it in some way.

Being able to receive love involves being in good relationship with the love that you are. When this is present, compassion, patience and empathy are available. These are crucial facilitators of love. They help create real pathways from that which might be destructive to love to that which takes those very same pitfalls and alchemizes them into deeper love, real love and intimacy.

There's what people SAY, what they DO, the ENERGY you sense, and the CONGRUENCY between all these.
