Heal Your Heart
Heal Your Heart
Heart - It is the most vulnerable organ of our body. We may say it every day that we are smart enough to use our minds in most practical situations but it's our heart that tells us what our soul wants.
However, the challenge is that we don't accept this fact. We are pushing ourselves to prove so much that we ignore what our heart is saying. We keep piling things on our little heart and make it so heavy that we don't realise how much it is important to Heal the Heart
I have recently come across few very close people in my life who are not happy with themselves, their lives, the relationships they share with other people, their jobs, children, etc. When you talk to them - they are so heavy on heart that they can hardly see and love themselves.
Its not that I have not been in such situations - I have been frustrated with lot many things in my life, I have gossiped, cribbed and complained every single day when I was in bad life state but a very dear friend told me to start praying for your Heart to heal. This changed my life and I realized how much burdened my heart is to keep so many things inside and not sharing it with anyone. My next question to myself was - Will I be able to atleast love myself if not others. Others - who have been rude to me, played some smart cards against me, people who took me granted, made me cry and eventually made me strong. The answer was NO.
We as humans tend to expect so many things from other humans and its not bad to do so, because again its a form of love you want to experience. And it does feel bad when our expectations ain't met. We feel left out, neglected and ignored. We close all our doors to avoid new people coming in our lives. We cry, we start hating, we strategize, we think we are using our minds to be successful, we doubt ourselves, we run away from realities and a lot of time run into depression. In all this process - your heart and soul are the only sufferers.
It is said that "When heart and mind fight, the soul i
nside cries " - Jamana Burhan
So here I am writing a 7 step guide which I used to heal my heart. I really hope that this comes handy to someone who dealing with a heavy heart:
1. Accept yourself the way you are. You hold an entire universe in yourself.
2. Everyday when you get up, say it to yourself - "You are worth a great day today."
3. Say it out what you want to accomplish today to that One spiritual energy you have faith in.
4. Stop affecting yourself with people who have hurt you. How can they deserve so much attention if they can't make you happy. People who make you happy should have a larger space on your heart. The moment your heart tells your mind to give a damn about such negative people, the mind will start acting.
5. Believe that whatever is happening in your life is because of you. You have made it and it's your sole responsibility to keep it in good shape. The moment you accept it - your life force will change.
6. Be a magnet! The more you do good, the more good things or people will land back in your life. The more you cultivate bad thoughts - the more your life will be a hell.
7. Pick up one activity which makes you happy. In my case, its always dancing to the tunes of my heart.
I know you may say that its easy when said but not done. But trust me all these pointers are a reflection of my own life.
Also, it's not that I still don't keep grudges for people or don't crib or complain but I have just stopped giving too much importance to these people and started focusing more on other people who do love me and want to see me happy.
So, heal your heart people! Make it happy and not sad.
Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it.” – Rumi
Everything in the universe is within you! Ask all of yourself!
Much love!
