GOT HEART?
One of my favorite authors is Paul Pearsall, Ph.D. His book, The Heart's Code: The New Findings About Cellular Memories and Their Role in the Mind/Body/Spirit Connection is not only remarkable and groundbreaking, but one of the most touching, emotionally intelligent books I have read. I always refer to it in my Chakra and Mind/Body/Spirit workshops.
Paul says...."The first thing I ask my patients to do in order to begin considering the presence and impact of the heart's info-energy is to locate the self. I want to illustrate to them that while they almost always spend most of their time focused on or focused by their brain, there may be another more neglected side to their life and another source of information by which to guide their decisions about what, how and how much to do. As you read these words, take one hand and point to yourself. Where is your hand pointing? Most people find their hand touching the area of their heart. No matter how important it thinks it is, the brain that is coordinating the pointing movements seems to know where a major component of the 'self'
it shares with the body resides."
When we are surprised with good news or bad news, we usually place one or both hands over our chest. We seldom say we love someone with all of our head or send brain-shaped candy on Valentine's Day. Do we tell our lover that we want to give our brain them?
"Place one throbbing heart cell in a laboratory dish next to another heart cell and they will beat in their solitary rhythms. Place several heart cells together in a dish without any physical contact between one another and with no synapse connecting them and they suddenly fall into a rhythmic unison, a rhythm that is distinct from the rhythm of each individual cell."
This book also documents stories of heart transplant recipients who actually craved foods they had never eaten before the transplant. Some started listening to new music they didn't like before and one reported having dreams that made sense to
only the donor family. The heart holds memory and intelligence, its energy resonates with the essence of who we are.
Don't underestimate the power and beauty of your heart. Learn to listen to the gentle nuances that carry intuitive wisdom and messages. Feel more, dance more, love more, play more and think less. Your heart is more than simply a pump. Think about it .
Spread LOVE, pass this on...
