How to hold love.

Love, like heat to an ice cube, will dissolve negative emotions and energy. wmf

A Well Known Fact:

In the process of induction, energy in the form of thought and emotion, like electricity, can pass through different material mediums and be changed to produce specific results that will match the desired outcomes of the idea behind it’s transmission.

Love is a beautiful, positive feeling...and it has a range that is quite broad depending on your life experience. Some years I ran a support group for recovering alcoholics and people with drug addictions, called the Lighthouse West of Oshawa, Ontario. One evening I suggested a guided meditation and had everyone get as comfortable as they could and then had everyone imagine they were diving safely to the bottom of a deep blue ocean. As people reached the bottom I suggested that they would find a treasure chest which would contain a symbol, a picture, a colour or an object that would exactly represent love as they now understood it to be in their lives. When I had everyone return to being present in the room, I had each member of the group describe what they saw. There was a range of representations of love from each person ranging in size from a pea, to a vast expansive rainbow world of vibrant colors and other variations that represented love for each person in the group. Each person’s experience was love as they understood it to be at that time in their lives.

Having found a representation of love within themselves I naturally asked how that representation made them feel and without exception each person felt positive and good as they reviewed their symbolic image of love. From this I suggested that they feel the feeling in their body and imagine they could breathe into that feeling and fill their bodie completely with it. The results were wonderful as some people wept with joy, while others smiled broadly and others just had a look of peace and contentment fill their expressions. Then I suggested that for a week, each person recall this feeling before going to bed, and fill their bodies with it again and imagine that feeling going also out to the people that were currently in their lives. The following week everyone reported various positive results in their daily lives, one person got a promotion, another’s father they were alienated from called them, another found that people remarked on how well they looked and this brings us to today’s How to be Happy in fifteen minutes or less. This will take up to five minutes for any three hours you choose to do this during today. Get your body relaxed by breathing several times deeply and releasing tension from your body...then take two more breaths and let all the thoughts in your mind relax for this time. Then recall to your awareness what you remember or recognize Love to be as a feeling and notice where it is first in your body and feel it for fifteen seconds and then breathe that feeling into every cell, muscle, nerve, organ, gland and bone of your body and feel that for fifteen seconds. Now with this feeling in your awareness and body, imagine this feeling reaching out from you and physically touching anyone you’d like to share the feeling with for a full thirty seconds or until the full five minutes has passed.

Without telling anyone what you did, just notice any changes over the next three days, if you want you can do this activity at least once per day before going to bed to see what else might occur and...

Have a great day!

William
