Sages throughout the ages speak about a way to cultivate beauty and love in the moment, even when you cannot feel it. If you can imagine it into creation, from there, manifestation can occur. Have you ever wondered why certain people are able to love you even when you don’t love yourself or why it may become difficult to love yourself and then you are reminded of the gift that you are to the world? And what causes you to forget who you are? The process of creating radiance within in order to awaken to greater levels of awareness and intimacy in your life comes with responsibility.
Radiance is available to you in the here and now, yet there is a process that we go through to unravel the tension in order to awaken to more ease inside of our bodies from which the byproduct is a radiant glow that comes through us. There are things that we can do to inhibit the flow – such as: not exercise, eat poorly, not get enough “Primary Food” (healthy support), stay indoors too long, think about our grievances, forget who we are…
And then there is basic self-care which continues to bear fruit of our existence and create radiant health from which we can blossom.Some ways to continue to cultivate your inner world to invite your radiance to shine forth are as follows:
- Mindful movement/fitness
- A detoxifying diet (free from sugar, dairy, gluten and too much meat)
- Healthy sleep
- Satisfying sex life
- Fulfilling intimate relationships
- Connection with nature
- Creative expression
What are ways that you let go? Do you practice letting go on a daily basis? Do you notice yourself getting in your own way…and if so, what can you add in to your routine that might create space for love and radiance to grow?
I’ve been listening lately to Deepak Chopra talk about the Secrets of Love and while doing so, feeling the words inundate inside of me. It feels like I am being reminded of core truths which had been lost along the way as accumulated stress caused me to forget that I deserve to love and be loved. Because my work involves loving people up, this is slightly deluded, and I do love my friends, family and clients. Yet, there is something missing and that is the basic birthright and need that we all have for intimate love. So, I’ve been studying about what that love is and practicing feeling into it. I’ve noticed a lot of single people out there hanging out in frustration (including myself) and I am making a commitment to being in the bliss that exists within us when we get out of our own way and trust that the Universe is conspiring with us to bring us exactly what we need. So if you are not in a relationship and wanting to be, I wonder if it would help to create a vision for your relationship, and from there, a step which may be even more important, let it go and surrender to the process, trust that the Universe is working through you to attract what you need and through someone else to surrender to what is needed to create a higher level of love than you may have ever felt before.
I am leaving you with some questions on which to ponder, to contemplate your relationship:
- Who do I need to be to embody to become who I am looking for?
- What qualities in a person or relationship can I not live without? (healthy communication, trust, respect…)
- What am I doing to resist my potential/radiance?
- What exercises, rituals can I add into my routine to attract/create more radiance?
