Heart Space
The only place I find true quiet and peace lately, is when I drop into my heart space. Let me tell you I had no clue this place existed a year ago. I remember probably 3 years ago, when I realized I could separate what my personal energy felt like, versus the energy of another person, and that was a HUGE EUREKA moment for me.
Finding and dropping into your heart space is like discovering a secret room or tucked away chamber. It almost feels to me like everyone has been holding out on me, and not telling me what a beautiful, dreamy, magical place this is. Whenever I go there, I don’t want to leave, it pulls me in, quiets me down and all is suddenly right and well in this crazy head and body of mine.
I have read a decent amount of information about how we should lead from our heart and NOT our head. Well honestly that is a great idea in theory, but at least for me connecting to my heart space is not simple or straightforward. I’m continually striving for dropping into my heart space to become automatic, to be a where I simply go to get guidance, answers to my questions, and that melty feeling of peace. Yet, my brain is currently at war with my heart. Thinking vs. feeling are at war.
For example, when I woke up today, I asked for guidance on what to talk about on social media. I heard/felt two words “Be Present”. The answer came, the answer resonated with my heart, but that machine we refer to as our brain said oh no that is far too simple. So, I started and stopped my video and hopped on a Zoom call. During that call, two themes were discussed leading with your heart, AND being present. I took and recognized the clear but gentle reminder from the universe, and when I got off the call did the video on “Being Present”.
Here is the thing the heart space doesn’t over think, doesn’t plan, doesn’t worry, doesn’t strategize it just feels. Heart = love. When we come from a place of love, we can’t help but raise our personal energy. When we raise our positive energy, our life flows with more ease. It’s a winning combination, one I will continually strive for.
How do I personally drop into my heart space? I have never read anywhere on how to do this, but one day I just intuitively knew how. For me personally, I imagine in my minds eye that my heart opens in half. Then I visually in my mind open the image of my heart like you would open a greeting card, and I quite literally feel into, or drop into that space. You will absolutely know when you are in your heart space, as any stress, worry or tension will drain from your body instantly. When you find it, trust me you will not want to leave as it is where bliss lives. I question why I keep pulling myself out of it, as if I don’t quite yet feel worthy to fully reside there. It’s a journey, a quest and one I will keep striving for because for me, I have no doubt that is where to freedom from self-resides.
