Most of us know the pain of a broken heart.
Some of us have had our hearts broken because someone has left us, moved on or died. Many of us have experienced the agony of unrequited love, the pang of love promised and not delivered or the abrupt end of happiness in couple-dom.
Or we’ve lost a parent, pet, dear friend or family member, and even today there is still that gaping hole in our chest where that love once was…
Some of us have suffered loss in another form though: the loss of our dreams and hopes.
We knew what we wanted to become and how we wanted to live and thought the Universe was guiding us there. But when our dreams didn’t manifest and our hopes didn’t come about, falling down around us like a house of cards, it felt like a part of us had died inside. And our hearts got broken.
Healing a broken heart is very challenging and painful for most people.
That’s because emotional pain in the heart chakra region often feels like a knife cutting into our core and we want to avoid this terrible feeling at all costs. So we cover up our pain through distracting ourselves by keeping busy, being “in the mind” or closing ourselves down.
But your heart chakra is a fundamental part of your energy make-up, and if it’s closed due to pain you restrict the flow of love into your life. When this happens, the Law of Attraction stops brining into your life all those things that you love.
That is why it’s vitally important to acknowledge and accept the emotional pain in your heart chakra. When you do this you’re then able to heal it and open yourself up to all those things you’d love to have, like a new life partner, career choice, passion, friendship and life purpose.
Many people resist acknowledging and accepting the pain of a broken heart because they can’t understand why this happened. They don’t understand why their relationship ended, why somebody died or why their dreams didn’t manifest.
It’s extremely painful that they’ve lost love, but it’s unfathomably painful as to why!
However, letting go of the “why” is often the way to heal a broken heart because a large part of the pain we’re experiencing is not understanding why this happened to us.
If you’re able to stop asking yourself why this happened to you, and except that, ultimately you cannot know why you lost love, you are then able to get go of your ideals and expectations of the relationship, person or dream, and begin to heal.
Most people have a broken heart because their ideals, dreams and expectations weren’t met. To acknowledge this as a fact causes a profound shift to take place.
I know this isn’t easy for us to arrive at this acceptance, but the effects of doing this are powerful and quickly heal our broken hearts.
with love,
