Spiritual Life Coaching – Living in the Heart
Get out of your head and into your heart. When you honor the present moment you become a channel for the will of the Source. The ego is taken out of the equation. It is only during this time when the heart is allowed to lead the mind. This is what I refer to as living with “heart-based intention”.
Living in the heart is quite a departure from living in the mind. It means learning how to accept whatever the universe brings to you, unconditionally. Living in the heart is not a life of doing. It is a life of being. More specifically, it is a life of being one with the Now. And when you are one with the Now, you are also one with the Source, which means that you are one with Life.
Being totally present in every moment is the key to living in the heart. It’s as if you’re saying to the universe, “I trust whatever it is you present to me in this very moment.” Remember, whatever the universe presents to you is a gift. This is why it is known as the “present”.
When you find yourself becoming irritated, impatient, anxious, or frustrated with situations that may arise from time to time during your daily life, it is wise to look at these moments as little “alarm clocks” buzzing off to remind us that we are not what is happening. We are the consciousness behind what is happening. The current human tends to identify so completely with what is happening to them that they forget to create any space in between what is happening and who they are.
The Next Human, on the other hand, will see the present moment for what it is, and therefore find it much easier to honor and accept. There will be no identification with what is happening in the moment, and subsequently, there is a space created in between drama, conflict, and challenges — and the true Self. This empowers the Self to live a life of non-reaction, non-resistance, and non-violence.
So, if your desire is to live in your heart and not in your mind, then begin by allowing presence to come into your life gradually and steadily. When the phone rings, before rushing to answer it, pause for a few seconds. Become completely present. Once you are centered and your mind is calm, then proceed to answer it. You’ll find that the universe will reciprocate the reverence you are giving to it, and will reflect the same respect back unto you. This is the way of the Next Human.
