Is Anything Stronger Than Love?

March 3rd, 2013

Dear Bev,

I carry a lot of fears.  You talk in your CDs about ways of releasing fears.  I’m curious, the feeling of love is stronger than fear – is anything stronger than love?

ChoicesWhat a great question!

As I reflect on this I would encourage you all to consider the power of CHOICE, and the conscious role it plays in your life. Many of us spend a great part of our lives stuck in old patterns and styles of thought. These patterns are actually holding us back. Sometimes we are aware of them and sometimes we are not.

Growth is consistently becoming aware of all the aspects of ourselves. We need to feel those aspects, acknowledge them and then actively move into ways  of releasing them. All of this involves pivotal moments of Choice.

How do I use Choice? I can tell when I am stuck because I feel grey or unhappy or worried…there is an aspect of unrest that is showing up. I have taught myself to “Stop Look and Listen” rather than just distract or give in to acting out the distress. This took a lot of willingness and time to really get there. When I was young I would mostly distract. Not now…it is too important to me.

Choice is about feeling what is going on in the body and the mind and then looking towards moving into Choice. For that I play with any of the following…and this is just some of the techniques:

  • I stretch a lot and enjoy yoga. This opens me up to aspects of myself. The more open I am and the more oxygenated I am, the more I can move to higher aspects of who I am.
  • I enjoy continuous writing. It allows me to get in touch with what is going on and what is really important to me.
  • I practice releasing techniques.
  • I love to meditate as that brings in calmness and an awareness that helps with choice.

Grounding is vital. We cannot make wise choices when we are not grounded. To be grounded means we are in our body. When we are not in our body, we are swimming around in our heads and often old stuff surfaces.

Choose an affirmation to say in those moments such as:

  • Every moment has Choice.
  • Choice is the Engine of my Personal Power.

Connecting to the choices we have in each moment can bring us into self-growth in a very powerful way. Slow down and breathe and take a time out. Go into your heart for yourself and others.

What if you live your life from a place of conscious awareness and that became more important than everything else you do?

Choice is a key part of your Mastery. Take this month and play with all the aspects of this message that has meaning for you.

CHOICE!!…it belongs to you. It’s a gift we have been given. Pay attention at all times. Choice is right here in the moment.

Remember that only you have the ability to Choose your awareness—no one else.

Mastery Practice Tool

Practice moving into your heart. In front of your heart hold a loved one, a pet, go to nature, do an activity you love. Invite your heart to open as you feel yourself melt into the feeling of love. Bring this intention and attention into your life - into your present moment now. Bring this heart intelligence into your life, into your present moment now and experience what's good in the moment. There is a wealth of aliveness in your heart. Take a deep breath and consider how you want to live your life.

Testimonial

Bev's Laughing and Breathing Belly Workshop for Children was one of the best I have attended. She has a gifted ability to gently connect with children and teach and share with them her techniques of belly breathing, rooting, mind vacations and laughter. These techniques soothe and calm them whenever they feel overwhelmed or anxious - be at school, home or before bed time. Whether you have an overwhelmed pre-schooler or a test-anxious pre-teen, Bev's approach works! I love that she gave parents the tools to model and share these fundamentals of meditation with their children. I would encourage families to take her course...your children will thank you and you will benefit from ways to keep yourself calm and allow wisdom in.
