Heart and Soul

The Heart is the seat of the Soul and I believe the seed from which our intuition stems. When you trust your Heart even when the outside appearances display the contrary, your decisions are always for your greatest and highest good. It is said that if it is good for you, then it is also good for the universe. In our modern world, we have a myriad of ways in communicating such as the telephone, cell phone, fax, text and e-mail. Yet, to communicate person to person, face to face looking into one another's eyes, the mirrors of the Soul and speaking from our hearts, is still one of the most difficult things for us to do. Is it any wonder that cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death in this modern society? A few years ago I had the privilege of meeting 30 of the top cardiologists from all over India. I was the Medical Liaison for international patients at a major cardiovascular medical center in Germany. It was a wonderful cultural exchange. I learned that also in India cardiovascular diseases are a major cause of death; the reasons being dietary and hereditary.

Have you ever wondered why the heart does not "get" cancer, but instead illnesses associated with blockages? When we do not trust who we really are, there is suppression of our true feelings and we are in a state of denial. The blockage to our Higher Self manifests as illness and disease. Is it surprising that the majority of heart attacks occur on Monday morning between 6-9 a.m.? How many of us are dreading our jobs on Monday morning, because we are not living our Heart's Desires? How many people are spending a majority of their life living their true passions which just happens to also pay their bills? How many of us work in an environment which is abusive and does not encourage our dharma, but instead encourages us to suppress the true feelings of our Higher Self? We may even simultaneously be in relationships, where we are no longer in love nor do we love, but have conformed to what "society" labels a successful life. We do not want to make waves, disappoint other's expectations of our lives or we are deathly afraid of change. “There is only the heart way for making decisions, because the heart is a vastly intelligent organ. It sees and hears before anything else in the body”.1

I have intuitively designed a series of questions which can be answered by people in the privacy of their own self and space. Just the openness of reading, contemplating and answering these questions, is a healing process in mending the wounds of the Heart and Soul.

Do you believe that you were created as a pure emanation of LOVE?
Do you feel like LOVE? What does it feel like?
Have you ever fallen in LOVE?
Have you ever been in LOVE?
Has your Heart ever been broken?
Do you have regrets about LOVE? Do you hold them deep within your Soul?
What are your fondest memories of LOVE? Would you like to be in LOVE?
Are you in LOVE now? Is this person your soul mate or Twin Flame
Do you remember your First LOVE?
Do you have LOVE in your Life?
Have you ever experienced LOVE at first sight? Do you know what a karmic relationship is? Have you experienced one yet? Were you meant to be together or only heal the past?
Have you experienced the LOVE of your Life? Did you marry the LOVE of your Life?
Would you consider writing a letter to the LOVE of your Life whether or not you send it?
Have you ever written or received LOVE letters? Have you ever taken the time to write a LOVE letter on beautiful stationery with your favorite pen and spritzed with a bit of your of your favorite fragrance or signed it with a stamp of your kiss.
Have you ever made LOVE that begins with a slow sensual kiss and ends with patient and passionate love making? Or do you primarily just have sex?
When was the last time your told someone or something that you LOVE them?
Do you believe that someone can die of a broken heart?
Is it easy or difficult for you to say "I LOVE YOU"?
Did you grow up in an environment where LOVE was expressed openly saying "I LOVE YOU", giving Hugs and Kisses?
At what age was LOVE no longer openly expressed to you?
What LOVING thing do you do for yourself every single day? Do you practice Self-LOVE?
Do you practice forgiveness? Self-forgiveness?
Would you consider writing a letter to someone whom you LOVE or LOVED and asking for forgiveness, even if they are no longer on this physical plane?
In your eyes what is the absolute expression of LOVE?
Have you ever seen pure LOVE in the face of a "homeless"person?
Have you found "something" that gives you so much joy that you are overwhelmed with LOVE and you loose track of time?
Do you believe that those with monetary abundance have more LOVE in their life than you do?
Have you ever considered sending DIVINE LOVE silently to everyone you meet? Try it and see how more Love flows into your life.
What is the color of LOVE?
What do you teach your children about LOVE? Did you know that children know the different colors of the crayons, but when it comes to Mommy and Daddy they only see LOVE?
If you had one week to live, what LOVING things would you say and do? Why not begin right now!
Are you hopefully Romantic? Have you ever invested in an exquisite set of bed linens made of soft alluring cotton in the most colorful and beautiful designs, just for you and perhaps you and your Beloved?
What is the most Romantic time you have ever experienced? Have you done it again? Would you consider making a date to experience Romance every week, at least once a week?
Have you ever had a Romantic time with yourself? Do you believe in falling in LOVE with your own life?
Do you still giggle like a child when someone tickles you, at your favorite cartoons or with the special person who is now in your life?
Do you LOVE your children unconditionally especially, when they have chosen their own path and that path is filled with addictive behavior and chronic illness?
How do you spend Valentine's Day? Have you ever created a Saint Valentine's Day just for yourself?
Have you been the constant caregiver in most of your LOVE relationships? Do you know the story about the Rose and the Tiffany box?
Do you live spherically (in many directions)
What is your favorite LOVE song?
Do you LOVE yourself? What is it that you absolutely LOVE about yourself? Write down 21 attributes that you love about yourself.
Is your LOVE clouded by race, religion or money?
Do you have enough LOVE for yourself, your family, your friends and your pets?
Do you believe that LOVE HEALS ALL
Instead of showing someone your new car, new outfit or stereo equipment, consider putting their hand over your heart and feeling all of the LOVE that you have inside.

How you can Heal the world with Love everyday: Everyday please send Love and Light to someone and something.

Children in a land where war has been a part of their daily lives.
A beautiful island or body of water that you wish it to remain so, blue and pristine and one day you will visit again.
Spend time with your pets and children, observe how they naturally express their needs and always give unconditionally. They are unable to pretend about their emotions.
When there is a natural disaster, FIRST send Love and Light, SECOND ask that the souls which have made and are making their transitions to walk in the Light and return home to their Creator, THIRD envision that family, friends and colleagues be surrounded with Love and Light and their grief is lightened. Ask for assistance from Archangel St. Michael and his blue light for protection, Archangel St. Raphael and his emerald green light for healing and Archangel Azrael for comfort with grief.
Garbage is dumped! People end relationships whether they initiate this ending or someone else chooses to do so. Try to lovingly Bless and Release all that no longer serves you. Welcome the New Beginnings! Remember only the Love and the Lessons of every relationship!
Enjoy a Romantic outing with yourself: A picnic basket of your favorite foods, like an Italian vegetarian or vegan deli sandwich with all the fixings, a beautiful blanket and sitting on the beach on a spring day, listening to the sounds of the water, letting your thoughts wander.
Send Love and Light to all Children who have been abused and have been unable to forgive themselves and their abusers. Their lives have been filled with the desire to simply be Loved!
Send Love to the entire Animal Kingdom—Ask Archangel Ariel and the Elemental Kingdom to support you. LOVE is free, unconditional,everlasting, never forced or an obligation. It is in a baby's chuckle, in the smile of a 85 years young man with only a few teeth of his own, in the touch of a polite passenger on a bus, in a complement from someone unexpected at the exact moment when you need it, a cuddly embrace from your furry child, in the warm embrace from your Oma, in the kiss from your Mama and Papa, and in a soft whisper from your Beloved!
