Meditation
Here is a powerful healing
meditation to help you lose your fears about love and to cleanse
your heart chakra. You may want to tape-record this meditation
with soft background music, so you can easily listen to it once
or twice a day.
1. With
your eyes closed, and in a comfortable position, take two or
three very deep, cleansing breaths.
2. Visualize
a beautiful cloud of emerald green light surrounding you. As
you breathe in, you take this healing energy into your lungs,
your cells, and your heart. Concentrate on your heart a moment,
as you allow the emerald-green light to cleanse away any negativity
that may have caused you to feel pain.
3. With
a deep breath, be willing to allow the light to carry away any
fears you may have about love. Be willing to release the fear
of feeling love. You need do nothing else except breathe and
hold the intention to heal yourself of the fear of love. Just
be willing to be healed, and God/Goddess and the angels will
do everything else. Take another deep breath, as you become
willing to release the fear of being loved, including the fear
that if you are loved, you could be manipulated, tricked, used,
abandoned, rejected, persecuted, or hurt. With another deep
breath, allow all of these fears from any lifetime to be lifted
and carried away.
4. Now,
allow the light to cleanse you of any fears you may have about
giving love. With a deep breath, be willing to release the fear
that if you give love, you could be controlled, abused, deceived,
betrayed, maimed, or hurt in any way. Allow all of these fears
to be lifted completely, and feel your heart expanding to its
natural loving state.
5. Allow
yourself to release any old unforgiveness you may be harboring
toward those who seem to have hurt you in a love relationship.
Become willing to release unforgiveness toward your mother ...
toward your father ... toward other parental figures ... toward
your siblings ... toward your childhood friends ... toward your
adolescent friends ... toward your first love ... toward those
whom you dated and loved ... toward anyone you lived with or
married.... Allow all of your hurts and disappointments associated
with love to be cleansed and fully carried away. You don't want
the hurt, you don't need it, and with another deep breath, it
is lifted to the light where it is transmuted and purified.
Only the lessons remain, and the pure essence of love contained
within each relationship, since that is the only thing that
was ever eternal and real within each of your relationships.
6. Now,
with another deep breath, allow the light to cleanse you completely.
Be willing to release any unforgiveness you may hold toward
yourself connected to love. Be willing to forgive yourself for
betraying yourself, for ignoring your intuition, or for not
looking out for your highest interests. Give yourself a hug,
either in your mind or with your arms. Reassure your inner self
that you will never again engage in self-betrayal.
7. You now
commit to following your intuition and discernment, so you could
never be or stay in any relationship that would hurt you. Fully
release the unforgiveness for any mistakes that you think you
may have made in any relationship, including your relationship
with yourself. And with another very deep cleansing breath,
feel yourself healed, whole, and ready to enjoy the love that
is the truth about who you really are.
As we lose
the fear of love, we become more aware of the rich range of
feelings that are part of our human experience.
