“The human heart
feels things the eyes cannot see, and knows what the mind cannot understand” – Robert Valett

It all begins with a heartbeat…..
Today in yoga the
instructor began class with the knowledge that at five weeks gestation a heart
beat is audible, not the brain, but the beat of the heart.
It reminded me of the
first time I heard the thump, thump, thump of my son’s heartbeat at about 5 – 6
weeks. It sounded like a miracle.
The heartbeat is a
miracle, but it is the heart that feels and the brain that responds.
Our feeling comes before
our ability to think.
It is the heart chakra
that must remain open for us to thrive and live and prosper.
And many of our hearts
take such a beating on the path of life, broken promises, miss spoke words,
actions and re-actions, situations that it takes time to heal from.
The heart itself is a
strong muscle, as big as our fist.
How do we keep our heart
open when life throws curve balls, hard balls, tidal waves and storms our
way??????
Then comes the question
what do you love? Do you do what you love? If the answer is yes then get your
mitt on and catch those balls, get on a surfboard and ride it out, put on the
best rain gear you’ve got.
Our heart is the most
precious part of us, it begins at 5 weeks of conception to beat for us…. What makes
your heart beat?
What makes your heart stay
open?
Life is a precious gift.
