I enjoy a lot of social media posts that are written from the heart. I didn’t know what this meant before and it wasn’t something that I was aware of before I started my blog.
My energy therapist told me one day it would be beneficial for me to start talking from my heart instead of from my head.
I had my heart closed at that point and I wasn’t sure what it meant or how to do that. I would sit down to blog in the morning and ask my heart what was in there and what it would like to say.
Sometimes this worked, and sometimes it didn’t.
I learned later that when we are talking from our head about matters of the heart, it means we are coming from ego.
Ego.
I could really do without it.
Recently I have discovered that when I’m too much in my head, meaning I am no longer listening to or honouring what’s happening in my heart, it helps to become humble.
I remind myself I am not superwoman, I don’t have all of the answers, I don’t know how to fix everything, and I couldn’t possibly do it all myself even if I wanted to. It also helps to remember that there aren’t any first world problems in my life that will mean death.
Once I get through those parts I dig a little deeper to figure out what put my ego into overdrive in the first place. Ego is always fear based.
This is where my heart gets to do the talking.
I finally recognize the difference when someone is skimming the surface and not really digging into what’s in their heart… and I feel it when someone is completely 100% heartfelt.
Those are the posts that make my heart break, or make me feel love, or joy, and almost always make me cry. They are the posts that are real as opposed to hi-lite reel.
I like real.
It’s so much better when you tell me how you really are, not what you think I want to hear.
Cheers to all the brave peeps who are showing up and being real.
P.S. Thank you for all of the heartfelt messages yesterday asking me to stay, what a wonderful gift to receive. Thank you for generously taking the time to write me, cheer me on, and tell me the reasons I should stay. I love you all, and I’m not leaving anytime soon.❤️
