Howdy Folks and Good Day!


I’ve got a question for you…

When do you open your heart?

I’m not just talking about saying nice things or smiling at people.  But when do you really open your heart and allow yourself to experience life, experience love, experience joy?   When do you open your heart to all the emotions of the human experience and let yourself really feel?

Emotions are energy.  They rise and fall, have their own frequency, and need to move through us.  When we don’t allow ourselves to experience them, we block off the flow of energy and trap it within our bodies.  We can also obstruct our intuition and divine guidance system because the best guidance and inspiration comes through in the waves of love.

Allowing ourselves to feel and experience our emotions fully doesn’t mean we become a victim of them.  When we feel things like anger or sorrow, we allow ourselves to first experience them and then quickly decide to move through them instead of staying stuck. 

If we try to deny our emotions or push them down, they’ll keep trying to rise back up because once again, they are energy. And energy needs to flow, to move.   The energies of our lower emotions especially need to move out of our body and energy fields in a healthy way.  If they don’t, they’ll keep bouncing around inside of us and eventually stagnate into our bodies as pain. Everyone knows pain doesn’t go away until you do something about it; again, moving that energy out of the body in a healthy way.

Opening our heart fully and allowing ourselves to experience our emotions does not give us a permission slip to treat others (or ourselves) poorly when we’re upset.  It does give us the responsibility to recognize what we’re feeling and choose to respond from a place of love so we can move through the painful circumstances more effectively. It also begs us to release judgment and the suffering those judgments can often bring.

Sometimes we convince ourselves it’s better not to feel anything because we’re afraid of being hurt.  But if we really think about it and tune into ourselves, we still hurt when we deny our emotions.  An example is the fear of loving someone because we got hurt in the past when we allowed ourselves to love.  Our ego can convince us “It’s better not to love because then you won’t get hurt.”  Yet, all the while we’re trying not to love we are hurting inside because we are so painfully lonely and have all these trapped emotions within us.

Opening our hearts fully gives us the pleasure of feeling love, joy, and gratitude for both the big and small things in life.  It gives us reverence for life and all that life encompasses.  Opening our hearts fully allows us to connect with each other in more conscious and loving ways and helps us to intimately know, experience and feel something greater than ourselves. 

Opening our hearts opens us up to the essence of our soul, the majesty of our authentic selves.  It opens us up to us!

When do you open your heart?

Do you have room to open it even more?

This week, see if you can expand your heart consciousness and truly open yourself even further.  Take note of how you feel and any differences the experience may bring.  And have a truly blessed day!

With Peace, Love, Happiness, Health, and Prosperity…

5.      Sir Froggie’s Pondering — from Sir Froggie

WHO’S PUSHING THE BUTTONS
ON YOUR CONTROL PANEL?

Do you feel in control of your Self?  Are your thoughts and feelings supporting you?  Is life working in your favor? 

Who’s pushing the buttons on your control panel?

We frequently become so busy getting things done we go from one situation to another simply reacting to circumstances.  It feels as if crisis after crisis pops up and by the end of the day, we’re tapped out physically, emotionally and spiritually.  Who’s in charge of our lives anyway?

It’s easy to get our wires crossed when we get complacent and don’t actively participate in making conscious choices.  We must pause and observe what’s going on both internally and externally.  Are we intentionally choosing our thoughts and actions or are we allowing others, or even past experiences, to run our lives?

If you’re not feeling positive about yourself and your thoughts are less than supportive, there’s a good chance other people or past experiences are operating the control panel of your life and you’re just reacting. 

Often, something will push our buttons because it feels like a previous emotional injury.  This sends us into survival mode and triggers negative reactions we may not be consciously aware of.  Instead of dealing with the current situation, we could be reacting to that hurtful trauma from the past.  Because of earlier wounds to our psyche, we might also give away our power to others we perceive as authority figures or as having more wisdom than ourselves. 

Yet it is up to each one of us to take charge of the control panel of our Self. 

It is our job to determine which inputs we accept, how much we’re willing to give out, and where to send our energy.  It’s our responsibility to reduce outside noise and create wide-open static-free channels so we can hear ourselves as well as our divine guidance loud and clear.  It’s up to us process what we take in and what we project out.  We may not be able to control the world around us but it is our duty to operate the best we can from within ourselves.

Occasionally it’s good to step back and listen to our self-talk.  Are we operating a system which nurtures and empowers us?  Or are we allowing others to push our buttons and simply reacting to their cues?  Are we able to hear clearly and follow the divine guidance we’re given or are the messages garbled and mixed up?  Are we operating on a higher or lower frequency?  Are we of sound body and mind?  Are we connected to our Source?  Are things running smoothly or do we need to get a grip and make a few changes?

No matter where we are in our lives, we can take charge of one of our most important assets – our mind!  It’s true the mind can be filled with fear, influenced by outside forces, and even burn out.  But it can also be our greatest resource, our best support system, and a truly reliable ally.  It all depends on how we program it and it how well we learn to operate it.

Who’s pushing the buttons on your control panel?
