Give Love A Chance!

April 9, 2013 By Tina Moore Leave a Comment

I am inspired by interesting conversations. I love diving deep into matters of the heart figuring out what makes people respond in certain situations or what triggers joy, passion, fear or insecurities. We all have patterns so what was the life circumstance that put a certain belief system into place?

Lately I’ve been pondering, why, based on the actions of another, do we PUNISH ourselves, especially in matters of the heart?

For example, if your TRUST was BETRAYED by your lover, why do you then PUNISH yourSELF and not fully trust again? Why do you stop yourSELF from going to the depth LOVE can take you?

You don’t want to get hurt again!

They don’t deserve your trust.

It’s too hard because you are still angry.

It’s scary!

I totally understand that response.

Due to the deep pain we feel, we begin to punish or limit our own experiences because we are fearful we’ll get hurt again.

We build the proverbial wall around our heart.

We keep ourselves busy and distant.

We engage only on a surface level because going deeper is no longer an option.

We get scared of love so we just have sex. We separate the two when in fact sex is a profound way to express love. Intimacy is lost when you cannot connect to love because touch and looking deep into someone’s eyes can bring you not only closer to the other person but also closer to yourSELF if you allow yourSELF to be in the moment, opening your HEART, BODY and MIND.

That is scary stuff for some folks because it requires vulnerability. I’ve worked very hard on mySELF to heal past pain but I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a little fear around loving and TRUSTING someone to the depths of which I know I am capable…but…

If I LIMIT my experience due to past betrayals, hurts or pain then who is continuing to get hurt?

I AM CONTINUING TO GET HURT BECAUSE THE DEPTH OF MY EXPERIENCE IS NOW LIMITED DUE TO FEAR.

I must TRUST MY INSTINCT and LISTEN TO MY HEART (not my fear) in order to feel the depth love encompasses.

As a single person dating, I find it profoundly sad there are so many people who haven’t processed their pain and are ultimately limiting their current experiences and possibilities to explore and express deep love due to being hurt in the past. They have rules, judgments, walls, boundaries, narrow thinking and a locked down heart.

We have all been hurt in the past at some point or another…it’s called growth…just like a bird in an egg…it has to fight like hell to break the shell but then it eventually flies…

If you are scared to love, I understand but we all deserve love. We were all born as love. Yes, life can throw some devastating blows sometimes perpetuating negative and damaging core belief systems but you have the CHOICE to RECLAIM your life back. You have the CHOICE to make love a priority for yourself and for others.

What shines from you will shine towards you.

Love gives life color, depth and energy in a way you cannot receive otherwise. All the money, travel, parties, business opportunities, shopping excursions and glasses of wine will never fill the space the heart has available for love. The more you love, the bigger the space…it’s just how it works.

GIVE LOVE A CHANCE. GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO LOVE. IT’S WORTH IT. YOU ARE WORTH IT.

With a smile,

Tina

You Are More Powerful Than You Think

What are two things that you need to create change in your life?

  1. The deep DESIRE and COMMITMENT to change.
  2. The BELIEF change is POSSIBLE.

Today, I am going to share a very interesting and thought provoking video that I thoroughly enjoyed.

It’s a video about the profound changes everyday people were able to overcome; people just like you. These people suffered from various things but I found the PHOBIAS, such as FEAR OF HEIGHTS, SEVERE SOCIAL ANXIETY and a DEEP FEAR OF SINGING IN PUBLIC to be of particular interest. (I work with singers. Fear, anxiety and extreme self criticism greatly hinder their ability to share their voice.)

The facilitator, Derren Brown, says:

We ALL have the innate psychological ability to achieve dramatic changes in our lives.

And he proves this through various things he does with the people he works with…

He also says:

I believe we all have the resources to make powerful changes in our lives if we give ourselves PERMISSION.

He says the SHIFT IN ATTITUDE was what helped the people he worked with get over their extreme fears, phobias and ailments.

Derren works with suggestion…and I began thinking…who planted seeds inside my conscious mind which then settled into a belief in my subconscious?

It comes down to parents/family, church, teachers, coaches and then friends, peers and now television, video games, music, magazines and social media. They all add something to your BELIEF SYSTEM…sometimes it’s positive and sometimes it’s negative.

THIS IS THE POWER OF THOUGHTS, WORDS, ACTIONS AND INTENTIONS.

I don’t suggest you blame others for your current situation. What I’m saying is we should be very conscious and mindful of what we put into our body whether it’s the food we eat, the drink we swallow, the products we put on our skin or the thoughts, images, music, and influences we put into our brain. We should also be aware of how we may influence others.

CLICK HERE for the video. Watch and absorb. You may or may not like his technique but PAY ATTENTION TO THE MESSAGE and let it create change in your life.

YOU ARE FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU THINK.

Let me say that again:

YOU ARE FAR MORE POWERFUL THAN YOU THINK!

TRUST / BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE

GIVE YOURSELF PERMISSION TO EMBRACE THE CHANGE AND ULTIMATELY THE LIFE YOU DESERVE.

“It’s a new dawn. It’s a new day. It’s a new life for me. I’m feeling good.”

It’s a two part series, but I’m asking you to focus on the first one; which is the one I’ve shared. CLICK HERE. The second one is also available if you find this one interesting / intriguing. If anything, it will warm your heart to see people embrace their true SELF and be EMPOWERED.

With a smile,

Tina
