My mind is confused and stressed by the uncertainty and chaos I am encountering.

Many Types of Openings

There are many types of Openings in what they lead to and in their nature. Some Openings lie within when we open our hearts. Opening our hearts involves knowing the state of our heart and emotions. Not an easy thing to do, as over a lifetime, hurts can be so buried that we no longer know they are there. To open our hearts those hurts must be uncovered and acknowledged.

When we have emotional pain, either buried or acknowledged, the pain can lead to our developing negative beliefs. As they get stronger, we can even close our hearts and emotions to positive experiences and people. Our negative beliefs and buried pain cause us to shrink our hearts and not see the good parts of life. Negative beliefs deserve to be challenged and replaced with positive ones.

When we unbury our pain, it is time for us to release it and the negative beliefs it has created. Holding on gets more damaging the longer we go. Until we release, there is little room for positive experiences and relationships to enter our lives. The pain is taking up too much room and our hearts recede. Part of release is acknowledging and examining the pain and replacing it with positive beliefs and perspectives.

Mind and Heart

The following is an excerpt of my book, Kaleidoscope: Flying Together in Earth’s New Energy.

The balancing of mind and heart is about valuing both mind and the heart and allowing them to coexist in harmony. In New Energy, the heart and the mind must be free and unfettered and equally utilized.

For a while at least, we can put the heart front and center in our lives in order to shift away from the dominance of our minds. When we make decisions, we can check in with both the mental and the emotional aspects of ourselves. The heart may offer an alternative perspective. It may also be more sensitive to what is going on. Can you imagine the mind, in its dictator form, weighing in on a decision for which you consult your heart?! The mind will give the heart no room and see the heart as frivolous, unrealistic and illogical—that is what we must change in New Energy. The mind is out of control. We have allowed it to dominate, to our detriment, for generations. Balancing the mind and heart requires freeing our hearts and using them to navigate our lives in cooperation with our minds. Once we do this, a major step forward in our alignment with New Energy is made.
