    Bringing Spirituality to Daily Life 

    . . . . When one lives through the open space of the heart, emotional events and challenges do not stick. They flow through. The more we discover that all is experienced within our hearts, the more we are able to be fully present to what is going on in our lives. We just feel what is going on, allowing love to be received in its many forms. Even losses, challenges, and other instances we do not understand are welcomed into the heart. Moving from the space of contraction to expansion becomes the movement of freedom.

    The Shift of Gravity from the Head to the Heart 

    1. Tune into the presence of the breath; feel the chest rising. 

    2. Notice if this space of the heart feels full or even achy. Know there is nothing to do and no need to change it. 

    3. Bring attention to the space of the heart throughout the day. Continue to feel the presence of the heart. 

    4. A growing willingness and acceptance to live life just as it is, is experienced. This is living with a heart of presence. The heart can take it all in, and receives by letting in. 

    5. Breathe into any feelings of contraction, simply resting in the space of expansion. Just be with what you are feeling, settling once more into the Heart Space. This is Freedom.
