Music Listen to your heart.

Follow its whispers and its screams.

It's speaking to you now,

As it always does and always has and always will.

Listen to your heart,

For it knows profound truths that your mind can never calculate or comprehend.

It's scary sometimes to listen to your heart.

It doesn't always choose the most logical path,

But it does choose the path that brings you closer to love and closer to joy.

Always.

That's what it's aligning you with.

The mind thinks it knows the path to the least amount of suffering for you,

But the mind has based all of its decision-making skills on your experiences,

On your environment,

On your learned patterns and behaviors.

It does not know the truth.

It does not know what lights you up inside with longevity and with ease.

It's easy for the mind to see what temporarily brings you joy,

What temporarily piques your curiosity,

But it's not great at being present.

It's not great at aligning you with your deepest desires.

Those are felt and seen and heard within the heart.

Yes,

You can feel and see and sense through your heart.

It's not just an organ that's keeping you going.

It's not just an emotional center.

It's not just this chakra or energy vortex of love.

It's actually a consciousness.

It's an awareness.

And it is deeply intelligent,

Threaded with wisdom that is connected,

Intertwined with your highest self,

With your purest consciousness,

The state of love and all-knowing awareness.

This is the heart,

Not the mind.

The heart doesn't calculate.

It feels its way.

You use the gut or gut instincts to communicate to you through good feelings or bad feelings,

You know,

That upset tummy or cringing or contracting.

That gut instinct is telling you,

This feels good,

This feels right.

You can't explain it.

You can't back it up with evidence from our life,

But something about it feels good.

There's a knowingness there.

And when we sit back and trust in that knowingness,

Beauty prevails.

And when you're facing a dark time,

Facing your fears,

Facing struggles,

Uncertain of your future,

It is comforting to go to the mind.

It is so comforting to sit and make your lists and figure out the pluses and the minuses and what's worked in the past and imagining what can work in the future,

You know,

Engaging that muscle,

Engaging that tool and utilizing it.

But the thing is it doesn't know.

It doesn't actually know.

It does not have wisdom.

It has intelligence to calculate and form strategical plans to get you from point A to point B,

But it doesn't actually know if it can get you there.

But the heart knows there is that knowingness that you can fall into if you trust,

But you have to trust.

And it is so hard to trust.

We have to let go of that fear that we're going to be caught,

That fear that if we fall or if we fail that it was just part of the plan,

That there's something beautiful here,

That there's a lesson,

That there's soul growth here.

That's that trust,

That divine trust and that trust that you're going to end up exactly where you're meant to be,

Exactly where you're desiring to be and feeling the way you want to feel.

Being that you-ness that you are,

Being you,

Not who you think you are,

But just who you are.

Trusting that that is there,

Trusting that that can rise to the surface as you keep softening your walls and letting them go and falling into this heart space,

Dropping into this heart space.

Trusting it,

Letting it guide you,

Trusting it sees and has a plan of its own that you do not need to consciously understand and that it will take you.

It will take you to your utopia.

It will take you to your bliss.

It will take you to your enlightenment if we just surrender and trust this ancient wisdom of the heart.

So I'd like for you to place your hands over the center of your chest,

One on top of the other,

Just resting them there.

So we're going to sink into this heart space now,

Sink into this conscious awareness,

Stemming from truth and stemming from love,

Aligning you only with love,

Only with your truth.

There's no ego here.

There's no intent of harm or suffering,

Only ease and grace.

Only ease and grace.

So resting into this heart space,

Soften your mind.

Easier said than done,

Right?

Soften your mind.

You may notice your awareness is here or your awareness is in your eyes or your brain.

You know,

That space where you feel like you're conscious from,

That can be shifted.

Let's allow that to shift and drop down into your heart space.

Let your conscious awareness drop down into your heart space.

Let your scalp soften and your eyes soften.

Let your jaw relax.

Soften this throat and the neck as that awareness drifts down and down into that center of your chest.

And when it arrives there,

Just feeling,

Maybe feeling the rib cage or your hands,

Feeling pressure or openness,

Maybe feeling energy and vibration,

Feeling the layers of emotion that the heart is holding.

We're sinking deeper and deeper to the depths of your heart,

To the truth of your heart.

Jaminak,

Consciously understand,

But we can bring our awareness there.

Can feel it and we can be it without understanding it.

Do you feel like you've arrived in this heart space?

What does it feel like to you?

Let's go even deeper,

Even deeper to the foundation of your heart,

To the foundation of your wisdom,

Of your truth,

Of your soul,

And just experience it.

Let your conscious awareness drop down into your heart space.

Let your conscious awareness drop down into your heart space.

Let your conscious awareness drop down into your heart space.

Let whatever it is experience it.

Jaminak,

Maybe there's a message that your heart wants to share with you.

Open yourself to receiving that message.

It could be a feeling,

A words or a sensation,

An image,

But that come to you now and connect with you and trust whatever arises.

Jaminak,

With your awareness here in your heart center,

We're going to shine it.

We're going to spread it out outward,

Expanding and growing,

Rising from the chest up into your mind,

Into your brain,

Bringing that love consciousness and merging it with your logical practical self,

Merging it,

Letting it have a place in a space to be heard and honored.

Jaminak,

Letting it fall and expand down into your belly,

To your hips,

Spreading that love and that acceptance to your body,

All the way down to your feet and your toes,

Spanning into your arms and your hands,

Activating every cell with this love vibration,

With this wisdom of the heart,

Seeing every part of your body through the eyes of love,

Letting it flow through your veins,

Expanding into your energy.

You are love.

Your love can move mountains.

Your love is safe and your love is always looking out for you.

If you just surrender the mind and your thoughts,

Your heart will carry you to your bliss.

See if you can make space for that,

The truths of your heart to come forward and be heard and honored.

Make space by shedding heaviness,

Excessive chatter,

Just dropping that to the ground,

Giving your heart some room to breathe,

To speak to you.

Let it know that you care for it deeply and you respect it and that you're ready to trust and honor it,

Trusting that it will bring you greatness and joy,

Love,

Abundance,

And peace.

And respecting it by listening to it,

Respecting it by softening the fears that tell you you can't follow your heart,

Softening them,

Challenging them,

And saying,

What if,

What if I do follow my heart?

Where will it take me?

Am I ready to go?

Thank you for listening to this talk.

And I hope that you can find the courage to trust in your heart and its beautiful wisdom and guidance and to honor yourself when you can't.

And I hope that you can find the courage to trust in your heart and its beautiful wisdom and guidance and to honor yourself when you can't.

To love and accept yourself when you don't have the courage to follow your heart.

That is still coming from the heart.

Have a lovely and beautiful day.

Namaste.

Amazing. Bookmarked. I feel like I will come back to this often to hear my heart, feel my gut instincts, and practice not being afraid of either. Thank you 🙏🏽💖

Thank you for such a beautiful practice, I am very much guided by my loving, compassionate heart ❤️ but - my mind gets in the way far too often with its negative chatter, taking me into places from the past and future I would rather not go to.
