If you’ve left your heart, and you’re not quite sure what happened…how you left your heart OR HOW to get back into your heart, then today’s episode is precisely for you!
Accessing our hearts is something we can’t take for granted.
SHOW NOTES…
In order to live and love from your heart and soul…the true essence of who you are…it’s dependent on having full access to your heart (YOU.)
A lot of times people don’t even think about it until I start asking questions.
TODAY’S S.O.L. STORY was inspired from my trip back into my home from the gym.
In order to get back “home” I have to unlock 4 doors and enter/exit an elevator after going all the way up to the top floor. Then I have to open another door.
That’s 5 LOCKED DOORS!
Leaving my home is easy. No locked doors. No keys required.
However, accessing it takes unlocking doors with a key (keys.)
I believe that our heart IS our home.
Why? Because we must live from your heart if we desire a fulfilling life of ease. Quite simply, a life of TRUTH.
As I shared yesterday in EPISODE 023, if you desire to redefine S.O.L. you must STOP PRETENDING! Living from your heart is the way to do this!
It’s easy to leave our heart (home.) However, it’s not as easy to come back home.
Remember, your heart is there. It didn’t leave. You have a heart.
You also have a spirit, soul, body, mind, emotions, will…you have it ALL, but are you actually accessing it? The key hub is YOUR HEART. It’s your center point.
But, are you accessing it?
The 3 KEYS to get back to your heart and ACCESS it:
#1: Acknowledge it.
Acknowledge that you left it, and IT’S THERE. Acknowledge that YOU’RE THERE. Tap into the feeling of your heart.
HOW? By listening.
Look at the word: Heart. hEARt. EAR is right in the center of it.
You must listen with your heart. And it begins with HEAR…
Hear what your heart is telling you, and acknowledge it.
#2: Accept it.
Accept whatever it is that your heart is feeling, and telling you.
Whatever needs to be acknowledged needs to also be accepted.
HOW? By loving your heart. Which is YOU. You are your heart.
Sometimes we feel as though our heart’s been broken. You may feel broken. But the truth is, you are not broken, and you DO NOT NEED FIXING.
You are a WHOLE, COMPLETE BEING. Even if it hurts.
Are you willing to acknowledge and accept your heart, by loving YOU exactly where you are? Right here? Right now?
#3: Act.
Not a performance act, but by taking action.
HOW? By living. Living IN and FROM your heart.
The Word says that faith without works is dead. Faith without action is dead.
If you’re not taking action on that which you ACKNOWLEDGE and ACCEPT…which is what you BELIEVE…not only is faith dead, but your life will not have LIFE in it.
You’ll find yourself going through the motions. but you will NOT be living your life fully, authentically, lovingly, UNCONDITIONALLY lovingly, and with the POWER that’s available to YOU.
IT’S AVAILABLE TO ALL OF US!
Acknowledge by listening.
Accept by loving.
Act by living.
Live and act in TRUTH, which is exactly who you are. This is how you access your heart AND how you live from your heart.
I really hope this helps you today.
Sometimes it may feel like getting back into your heart is almost impossible, but NOTHING’S IMPOSSIBLE.
If you believe it’s possible, it’s possible.
Get your hopes up. Acknowledge. Accept. Act on what you believe. This is TRUTH.
This is POWER.
TODAY’S SACRED S.O.L. STEP:
