A Daily Look Within – Day 24
This is when activities like meditation or bio-feedback can be helpful in achieving better health. When we think of extra-sensory perception, we might not equate that with being in the heart region. We may think that those who are psychic must be able to perform some sort of genius-type, superlative brain function, while the truth may in fact be located a little farther down from the head. The heart is also close to our lungs, where it can receive the most efficient amount of life-giving air to pump through our body.
In essence, everything we learn and all the knowledge we say we understand with our brain fails in comparison to what our heart senses and retains. It not only is the powerhouse of our body, but it is where we ultimately “feel” when another person is near. We hold our love knowledge for our self and others in this special place. We hug each other close to share this most basic connection. Babies of all kinds are soothed by the sound of their mother’s heartbeat. Knowing another person is near (even if they are miles apart from us) can help us feel strengthened and less alone. To truly feel that someone cares for us is a wonderful connection that sends love and healing over those long distances. This does not just happen when we remember to “think” of them with our brain, but when we feel that sometimes-overwhelming “whoosh” of emotion that lets us know someone holds us close at heart.
