Opening Your Heart to Life’s Blessings

“As we gently release the armour around our hearts, we discover that life has been waiting to embrace us all along.” Sage

Dear Ones,

Those of you who have joined my meditations know that they are always led by our heart, its natural wisdom and beauty. I feel this is a natural remedy for us, as we have often developed patterns of protecting ourselves and our hearts, especially if we had difficult experiences growing up as children. And so, unconsciously, we might have developed unhelpful patterns, such as suppressing our feelings and building protective walls around our hearts, thinking that this way we’ll be safe and never hurt again. We did the best we knew at the time, as most of us didn’t really have many tools for facing challenges in life-affirming ways.

And so we didn’t realise that the wall around our heart might keep away not only the unwanted but also our heart’s true desires — true love in all shapes and forms, vitality, abundance and joy. But now, at this extraordinary time of our human evolution, we are all asked to put the armour down, to open our hearts and allow love for ourselves, our fellow humans and life itself to flow freely, becoming deeper and fuller.

The good news is that this great love already exists within each of us anyway, and as we consciously take off the so-called protective armour, we will experience life again as new and fresh. We’ll no longer see it through the filters of past stories and we allow life to bless us in both expected and unexpected ways.

Love takes care of love. Love naturally creates more love. But if we put out love mixed with fear, that’s what we receive back, as what we put out comes back to us. There is no better person to start loving fully than ourselves. And so, as we are learning to keep our hearts open to others and to life, we can do so gently. Step by step. Putting down one little piece of armour after another. And finally experiencing true joy and lightness of being that have been there all the time, but the heaviness of the armour didn’t allow us to experience them fully.

When we know deep in our hearts that the Divine and life itself were, and always really are, on our side — on everyone’s side, really — it will be much easier to put all the heaviness of any previous experience down and no longer carry it forward. Many of us have had the experience in our meditations of what the unconditional love of the Divine and the Angels feels like. No matter how we feel on the day, this immense unconditional love is always there for us, reminding us that the same love resides within our hearts, regardless of how much armour is covering it up. And this immense unconditional love now wants to be lived and expressed fully as you, as me, as us.

Are you ready, dearest One?

I look forward to meditating with you.

Lots of love,
Jana
