What is Love?
We all think we know what love is. And some of us really do! Others associate love as “being in love” with someone, or with life. Indeed this can be one way to describe it. However, it is only a small spectrum of what love really is.
Love is a high vibratory energy state, the highest in existence. God is love, love is God.
Love is the true essence of who we are, yes indeed! Each one of us is a divine spiritual being; this is the very core essence of who we are; and divinity is love. Love is God.
When we live our lives in the being-ness of love, as best as we can, we are in more alignment with The Creator/God/The All That Is. This also means we are in more alignment with our true essence. Yes, love is experienced with your romantic partner, loved ones or with your pet. More importantly though, love is experienced when we live our life with an open, loving heart and live with this high vibratory energy as our daily mode of operation.
This may be easier said than done though! To live life consistently with love is not always easy. So, here’s a simple and yet powerful exercise for you to expand your heart’s capacity for love, from my book Humanity’s Cry for Change:
Love Essence
You are invited to practice a morning meditation focusing on your heart space and having a remembrance of a “love” experience. Love experiences do not mean sexual, but rather, of a warmth and bliss of love, such as what you would feel with a loved one, like a mother or dear friend, or even a pet. For a few minutes or longer, have a sense of appreciation and love as you remember a love experience. Breathe this into your whole being. Now use your imagination that you are pleasantly saturated in this love essence. For example, perhaps you see yourself immersed in sparkles of love and light, or you feel a warm calm energy throughout your whole body. Next, set an intention to carry this feeling with you during the day.
Here’s to your love and heart’s expansion!
Love to you always,
Kate Heartsong
