Listening with Your Heart
Inner Hierarchy
Listening with Your Heart
When we listen from our heart, the logical grid of our brain tends to soften and melt.
Most of us were born and raised in cultures that value the head over the heart and, as a result, we place our own hearts below our heads in a sort of inner hierarchy of which we may not be conscious. What this means is that we tend to listen and respond from the neck up, often leaving the rest of our bodies with little or no say in most matters. This is a physical habit, which sometimes feels as ingrained as the way we breathe or walk. However, with effort and awareness, we can shift the energy into our hearts, listening and responding from this much deeper, more resonant place.
The brain has a masterful way of imposing structure and order on the world, creating divisions and categories, devising plans and strategies. In many ways, we have our brains to thank for our survival on this planet. However, as is so clear at this time, we also need the wisdom of our hearts if we wish to continue surviving in a viable way. When we listen from our heart, the logical grid of the brain tends to soften and melt, which enables us to perceive the interconnectedness beneath the divisions and categories we use to organize the world. We begin to understand that just as the heart underlies the brain, this interconnectedness underlies everything.
Many agree that this is the most important work we can do at this time in history, and there are many practices at our disposal. For a simple start, try sitting with a friend and asking him to tell you about his life at this moment. For 10 minutes or more, try to listen without responding verbally, offering suggestions, or brainstorming solutions. Instead, breathe into your heart and your belly, listening and feeling instead of thinking. When you do this, you may find that it’s much more difficult to offer advice and much easier to identify with the feelings your friend is sharing. You may also find that your friend opens up more, goes deeper, and feels he has really been heard. If you also feel great warmth and compassion, almost as if you are seeing your friend for the first time, then you will know that you have begun to tap the power of listening with your heart.

Is it you or your ego talking? by Aine Belton
Miracle Mind
Hi Reader ,
Below is a link to an article about how to discern the voice of your
ego.
It includes some simple tips to help you become more self-aware and
empowered!
The more conscious you are, the more you can be free from ego lurings
that would otherwise side-track you, enmesh you in stories and drama,
and create painful states and scenarios that take you off centre and
off your true path.
If you're feeling guilty, controlling, jealous, competitive, self-pitying,
not good enough, better than, less than, inadequate, narcissistic,
etc., check who's running the show!
Similarly, if you're disconnected from your feelings and thoughts are
racing on over-drive or seeming autopilot, check to see if it's the wisdom
of your true self speaking or the 'yammer yammer' of ego at play.
Sometimes it is the voice of your beliefs that are swirling through your
mind - deep rooted assumptions you have made about people, yourself
and the world, that are manifesting in your thoughts AND as your reality.
Are there sayings, statements or one-liners you tend to make that are
tell-tale of faulty attitudes and beliefs?
Of course, you can change your beliefs at this link.
Does your thinking empower you, uplift and enliven you? Does it serve
you and others? If not, nip it in the bud!
And check out the guest article below on Discerning Ego:

understanding about your life circumstances and how to change them,
and information on optimum empowered choices.

always help available to you, and you are loved beyond measure!

you, in fact, it is communicating with all the time, you are simply not
aware of it!

The Miracle of Change.
Boredom
he feeling of boredom is often misunderstood and can actually mean we need to look under the layers for change.
Sometimes we feel that things aren't moving along fast enough for us and that the world is passing us by. It may be that time seems to stand still and that we are simply bystanders in our own lives. Other times it might appear that there is nothing new left for us to experience and that we are locked into a never-ending cycle of stasis. If we take the time to listen to these feelings we will notice that there is probably more going on beneath the surface, like our apprehension to venture out into the unknown. By taking a new look at how we live our lives, however, it will be easier to break through our sense of boredom and enter into a more positive state of being.
When life seems monotonous, it is usually an indication that there is something we need to change. Boredom can easily lead us down the path to despondency. Acknowledging our feelings and then setting the intention to alter just one small thing in our life can give us a much more affirmative outlook. This act of change allows us to step outside of ourselves and discover new and exciting things that are often already present in our everyday lives. Simple things such as eating a healthier diet, taking a new class, or joining a club are all ways in which we can go beyond our comfort zone and explore the wonders that exist all around us. Keep in mind that the moment we do something different from our usual routine, the more fresh energy, hope, and blessings we will manifest in our life. What this means is that we'll no longer see things as being tedious but will instead realize the preciousness of everything.
Being able to integrate these subtle changes on a daily basis allows us to recognize the miracles that are our lives. Even though we may think of change as doing something life-altering or drastic, gentle transitions from our habitual ways of doing things and an appreciation of all life offers us will truly bring about positive and lasting transformation.
