Sometimes the hardest message about Love that we have to hear is the one about loving from a centered place that does not necessarily reflect what we are feeling in a certain moment. Feelings can overwhelm us and when we are faced with a very emotional situation it can be extremely difficult to remember to project the energy of Universal Love.
The way to remind ourselves is to pause, take a breath, and notice how we feel without acting on that feeling yet. Of course, if what you are feeling is fear of the sabre-toothed tiger who is bearing down on you, then you might want to run while you pause! But, even then, you will find that reaching into the place of peace and Universal Love within you and projecting that energy outside of yourself can calm the energy around you. A friend encountered a mountain lion near her kitchen door and she went outside holding only Love and peaceful energy within her. She talked soothingly to the mountain lion while he looked at her. The picture shows a brilliant light shining forth from the eyes of the mountain lion – an amazing photo! My friend stayed in a higher vibration than fear and had a wonderful experience of close proximity with a mountain lion.
So what happens when we pause and breathe? We then have time to move into the ‘observer mode,’ the place where we have the most resources for choosing a course of action. When we can observe ourselves in a situation we can also observe possible outcomes of the choices we see before us. If we stay in the emotion of the moment our vision is narrowed and we frequently can’t see multiple options from which to choose our next step. And when we notice what is going on in our body in that moment we have even more information to work with.
Try this the next time you are interacting with someone, even if there are not intense emotions in the minute. Take a second to visualize the Light and Love that is streaming into the top of your head from your connection to the Universal Source of Love and Light and connect with that energy in your Heart Center. Then really look at the person, really notice them, really listen to them. Notice how it feels in you when you do this. This isn’t about bombarding them with Light energy, for that would be an invasion of their boundaries. This is more like holding a space for them to be in connection with you in a bubble of this Love and Light. They have the option of choosing to step into the bubble or to step away from it, but you are defining the vibration in which you wish to hold this interaction. When someone chooses not to engage at this level of energy, that is their prerogative but you don’t have to step into a space that is not appropriate for you.
The person who is living the Conscious Life will practice always operating from this level of awareness and connection, with other people and with the Universal Source of Love and Light. Imagine how peaceful the world would be if everyone operated in this energy. You might not have the power to make the entire world enjoy this vibration but the world around you will certainly change when you are holding this energy in every situation!
