It’s in the heart that people access the qualities of love, such as compassion, care, kindness, forgiveness, appreciation, etc., that lift us above separation, judgments, and blame. Through intentionally demonstrating these heart qualities in our lives, we connect with our heart’s natural intelligence and guidance for a unique opportunity to create a future together in harmony.
As collective consciousness increases, this will eventually reveal that love is an advanced mode of intelligent living. What I mean by love is simply more care, kindness, and cooperation in our interactions, along with less judgment, more compassion, and forgiveness. I feel it would be safe to say that one of love’s principal intentions is to help people get along with each other and heal separation, which unfolds the secret of thriving and experiencing less fear and more joy.
The healing of separation is essential for a shift into the next level of intelligence for humanity — and many people are feeling that life’s events are shaking us awake to this requirement. These times are lit with positive opportunity, regardless of how they can appear throughout the world. Humanity is transitioning into a state of consciousness that will unleash the creative power of togetherness and the understanding that it’s our heart vibration that qualifies the difference between separation and feeling connected.
Increased heart-connected interactions with each other will progressively raise the vibration of collective consciousness. As we realize we are all energetically connected, increasing our love and care for each other creates easier access to our true self’s assistance. This will set the stage for realizing that inclusive, unconditional love and compassion is the next advanced mode of intelligent living.
What We Can Do
My intention in my writings is to give a picture of how love includes practical and effective ways to heal separation and bitterness between people, which is driving the steady increase in intractable stress that humanity is experiencing.
- Learning to establish coherence between our mind, heart, and emotions expands our love, kindness, and compassionate care.
- Increasing the love flowing through our system is one of the best-kept secrets for connecting with our heart’s intuitive directions.
- Expanding our love and care for others helps activate and anchor our heart’s intuitive connection as a street-wise way of life, not just as a passing trend.
Broadcasting Love
There are many individual and collective benefits from the practice of intentionally broadcasting or radiating love. Radiating love and compassion automatically brings more patience and deeper listening into our interactions. After we practice radiating love or compassion for a while, there’s an automatic tendency to precede interactions from a more loving spirit, resulting in less stress and more harmony in our relationships. Sending love in the form of compassionate care and respect also helps to soften the energetic field around us, making it easier for others to feel ease and a deeper resonant connection in their heart.
Exercise for Increasing Your Love Radiation
- Sit quietly for a few minutes and breathe consciously. On the in-breath, imagine breathing in divine love throughout your being. On the out-breath, radiate the feeling of gratitude.
Doing this lifts the vibration of your spirit and helps to bring heart, mind, emotions, and body into coherent alignment and stillness. This creates an energetic conduit for the love and guidance from your true self to integrate more easily into your day-to-day interactions.
If you decide to try this, be patient while getting the feel of the process. Without patience, your mind will tend to expect too much too quickly, and you will likely give up disappointed.
Collective Heart in Action
The effectiveness of collective heart power is in its early stages — yet it’s on the rise due to the rapid increase of stress and a desperate need for solutions that the mind without the heart can’t deliver. The objective is for humanity to go for sustaining compassion and cooperation without needing stress to remind us.
Profound societal changes will continue to take place as our world becomes increasingly interconnected and interdependent. For this to achieve its potential, we need to all learn to get along. The mind without the heart hasn’t been able to pull this off. The good news is the dynamic shift the collective is experiencing now is creating a time-release momentum for awakening humanity to collectively open our hearts and step our love down into kindness, compassionate care, forgiveness, cooperation, and fresh starts.
Exercises to Expand Our Capacity to Love
- Make a commitment to consciously broadcast or radiate love for a minute or two in between and during activities during the day or whenever you think of it. Realize that you are also radiating love when you’re feeling appreciation and kindness, resonance with nature, warm-hearted care for family, friends, pets, etc.
- Practice breathing love into the environment wherever you are: shopping, on the phone, at the dinner table, watching the news, in meetings, while driving or walking to work. As you do this, know that it’s helping to increase your capacity for finding solutions to life’s challenges.
- Sit awhile in relaxed stillness and imagine breathing love into all your cells. This enhances your immune, hormonal, and nervous systems, which can help with self-healing. Remember that it’s already proven that love energy can effect positive changes in our biology.
- Practice radiating love into future meetings or interactions you are planning. This sets the tone for deeper listening from your heart and helps you maintain or recoup emotional poise if needed.
Doing these exercises for a week or longer strengthens your inner stability while helping to prevent stressors that block clear thinking and higher choices. It takes a little repeated practice to remember to do them, but it’s way worth the time spent to anchor any of these practices into memory. Set up phone or note reminders. Some days, you won’t feel the heart as much. Heart feelings modulate at times, but that’s okay. It’s your sincere heart intention that increases your effectiveness so that radiating love and care becomes more automatic.
These exercises are intended to inspire your own creative ways to expand your love and experience the transformational benefits that come with it.
In Summary
Love is an action word for achieving our next awareness level of collective intelligence. We won’t be able to sidestep genuine love, care, and compassionate interaction. We’ve tried that through the ages, and it hasn’t worked. When we choose to be more caring, kind, and cooperative with each other for the good of the whole, we will create self-sustaining socioeconomic ecosystems that provide the opportunity for all to prosper.
The need for love has been philosophized for eons — now is the time for us to bring it to the street and practice more love and kindness in our interactions to reap the practical and proven benefits. We are running out of ways of trying to find happiness and peace without opening our hearts to getting along with each other. We need to find a new respect for our personal and cultural differences. This is a job for love that can’t be substituted.
We have a limitless supply of love within our heart, waiting to hit the street running. As more of us establish a coherent alignment between our mind and heart, along with expanding our love, kindness, and compassion, we will build the new baseline for creating the world as we want it to be. Compassion is transformational love and care manifesting in the most ripened state of effectiveness for the whole.
It’s time to give love a chance — then peace will join us at the table for celebration.
