“If you are really paying attending and really ready to heal, the day will come when you recognize that forgiveness is the only way back to the center of your innocence.“ ~ Iyanla Vanzant Generating a mutual flow of forgiveness renews connection, enhances the sharing of vulnerabilities, and heightens intimacy in our relationships. It is at the core of every soul-hearted relationship, and is an essential dimension of being love. Forgiveness is the willingness to let go of any resentment, judgment, or grievance toward someone who has injured us. It has two essential parts: a release of negative feelings previously held toward the person who … [Read more...]
We Are In an Evolution of Love
We are in the midst of an evolution of love. We have the opportunity to open our hearts more than ever before, and experience love in ways we may not have been capable of in the past. Instead of operating from such fear-based polarities such as right/wrong, good/bad, and win/lose, we have the chance to awaken to the energetic power of love, which transcends physical time and form, and exists beyond problems, limitations, and suffering. Knowing that we are love will heal us in such a profound way that we will become conduits for the expression of love with ourselves, loved ones, and the world. And, since unity and duality coexist, it is … [Read more...]
Self-Love: The Key to Transforming Our Relationships and the World
By loving yourself wholeheartedly, you can change the world. You become a conduit for love when you fully embrace and express your true nature—which is, and has always been, love. The more you love yourself, the more you eliminate negativity, connect compassionately with others, and become ambassadors of love in the world. Like dropping a pebble into a pond, loving yourself creates an energetic vibration that radiates outward from your heart center and shifts everyone and everything in its path. When you emanate the highest frequency of love, you not only receive the benefits of the high vibration, but also raise the vibration of others … [Read more...]
3 Ways to Lean into Your Vulnerabilities & Open to Love
“One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life; the word is love.” —Sophocles The more we lean into our vulnerabilities, the more open we become to love. The areas of our lives in which we feel most vulnerable are health, relationships, and finances. Whether or not we had a healthy and loving childhood, we all experience some form of emotional pain as a reflection of the human condition. Our subsequent pain, when left unresolved, keeps us living in habitual, protective ways and inhibits us from co-creating a fulfilling and happy life. Leaning into our vulnerabilities requires spending time alone so we can confront the source of … [Read more...]
Living in Soul-Hearted Partnership Creates a Safe Haven of Love
Living in soul-hearted partnership creates a safe haven of unconditional love. When two people connect heart to heart and soul to soul, they radiate this energy through their hearts to themselves, each other, and out into the world. Like two professional dancers, alternately leading and supporting the other, each one brings such energy and connection so the dance flows gracefully and effortlessly. They are not dependent on each other for love, but together reflect this energy to each other and then out into the world. Such love compels them to become more kind and compassionate human beings. An energetically safe haven of love is an … [Read more...]
6 Ways to Release Energy Blocks to Self-Love
“Let love be the light that leads you home” ~ Emmanuel Dagher Releasing energy blocks opens us to self-love, and is an essential practice in being love. If we want to love ourselves, others, and emanate love into the world, we must release anyone or anything that impedes the flow of love within us, and restore peace and harmony to all aspects of our lives. Like removing the kinks from a garden hose to maximize the flow of water, releasing energy blocks allows you to become progressively more open to the flow of love. When you harbor resentment, worry excessively, become angry, or feel stressed, you block the flow of energy in your body … [Read more...]
Spiritual Completion Takes Forgiving Our Past
Spiritual completion takes forgiving our past. This means spiritually releasing every pattern that no longer serves or supports your soul’s path. I’ve been asked over the years, “What’s the difference between completion and closure?” Simply, completion is a spiritual process whereas closure is a physical one. When we spiritually complete a pattern, we let go of it energetically. For instance, patterns are circular so we can visualize cosmic pinking scissors cutting the pattern, straightening it out like a path, and then walking off of it. This process cuts the ties we have to this karmic pattern. It signals to the universe that we have … [Read more...]
Shift Your Anxiety by Taking Time to Pause
Giving ourselves the “permission to pause” is an important tool in shifting our anxiety to spiritual opportunity. It provides time and space to gain healthy detachment in any situation that arouses a physical, mental, or emotional reaction. When we push the pause button, we can step away from the person or situation, take some deep breaths, and drop into our heart space. This helps us refrain from reacting from our fear and responding with love. Besides interrupting our knee-jerk reactions, we can consciously observe the situation from a more expansive spiritual perspective. Taking such a purposeful break affords you the opportunity to … [Read more...]
Your Words Create Your Intention—Choose Wisely!
Love is the highest energy frequency in the universe. And so, our words must source from love. The high vibration of positive words has an uplifting effect on our world, whereas the vibration from negative words has the power to destroy. When we open our hearts, light energy flows through us as pure love, making us conduits for the flow of love to others through our thoughts, words, and actions. As conduits of love, we can receive and transmit energy that is divinely sourced. Then, we can use this information to align with our soul’s journey and sustain the circulation of loving energy through positive thoughts, words, and choices that … [Read more...]

It dares you to fully express who you are.” ~ Dr. Debra Reble Positive affirmations can move you from fear to courage. They help relieve anxiety, calm the nervous system, and elevate our vibration to a higher level especially when we feel lower vibrational emotions such as fear, self-doubt, or powerlessness. This is where the healing of our anxiety occurs. In every anxiety provoking situation, it’s important to rescript your reactive fear-based thoughts into positive affirmations. But first, you must open your heart so you … [Read more...]
