Connecting Head & Heart

 

Connecting Head & Heart
Feeling in sync with the rhythms of our lives is one way in which we can know we are in alignment. Rhythms bring us in touch with feelings.
Feelings are another key to getting more out of life, especially when our head & heart are aligned. Our senses are primary ways we know about the world we live in, constantly in touch with our surroundings though sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. Our senses help form our feelings, so these factors may be totally non-verbal, and non-verbal messages are still messages.
How often do we decide to not make a business deal or cancel a relationship because something just did not feel right?
How many times when you were moving swiftly to achieve your goals did you feel like you were confident your would succeed because your desire was strong?
Now when you reflect back on some of these decisions, you can tell where that feeling of alignment provided you accurate guidance, can't you?
You have heard that where your thoughts go, your energy goes. Think about the importance of aligning our thoughts with our feelings.
That is a key to success in life. Why? How many times have we had an idea that we did not feel like acting on?
Notice the difference when we have an idea that excites us and we feel confident about it.
Notice how much agreement from others your get when you feel that way.
Notice how many of your successful ideas or projects had that feeling connected to them.
Sometimes when we are just out walking and we just feel like taking a different path, and then we have a pleasant experience walking that path even though we did not know in advance it would be more beautiful than the path we more often take.
Why do we do that? Curiosity is one motivator. We want to learn new things, try new things, take a different path, taste, smell, touch, see and hear things in a new way. Our senses stimulate our mind.
Notice when you feel aligned. In any major life decision, how you feel about the decision is important. How many times did a gut feeling change your mind about a decision? Were you glad it did?
So how does this fit with where your thoughts go, your energy goes?
Notice how when you have feelings of low self worth that you do not get the respect you deserve? Notice how when you have low self esteem you do not even ask for what you want?
Notice how when you are full of joy that more things will work out for you? Notice when you are more positive, more people say yes to you?
Courage is when your feelings take charge even in the face of a doubt or fear. In this way, your heart can cause your thoughts to align with your heart. I will find a way to do this! So your feelings can focus your mind.
Our mind does influence our feelings. When the two are not in sync, you feel like things are not going well, so you need to change.
Being happy every day is a choice. Waking up with our first thoughts turning to gratitude for this new day can set the tone for a good day and get us off to a good start. No matter what else we have to be grateful for, we can begin by being grateful for this day.
Waking up opening our mind to guidance from spirit welcomes in new ideas and new solutions. Notice how when we are focused on achieving a goal that something may pop up that will help us achieve our goal that we did not plan on and had not thought of before?
That is how the universe helps us when we are focused on our goals and our head & heart are aligned.
I always love hearing from you, so if you feel like sending me a note, calling or coming to see me, please do!
Have a wonderful day!
