When we listen to our heart, we understand that its intelligence far surpasses our IQ. Then, we can have faith that our heart is the best guide on our life's journey. ❤️ A7 #SpiritChat

A7: #spiritchat once you have faith that the heart knows, decisions may become easier….

A4 I let go of expectations created for me by others who don’t function the way I do #spiritchat

Good morning all in #spiritchat, bringing my 72 beats per minute to this discussion today, albeit a little late, maybe a few more beats after seeing a picture of that cherry strudel, cherries, one of my faves...

A practice to let go of, that felt strengthening for me internally, was the expectation that people I love would change. They do of course, but not in predictable ways, and not because of my wishes. I found letting that go helpful. #spiritchat

Yes, @juliejordanscott.bsky.social ~ remembering to say ‘thank you’ and expressing gratitude ~ they can and do strengthen the heart... 🙏🏽 #Spiritchat

Q4. A practice or two... that you finally let go of... and you felt your heart get stronger? Do share. #Spiritchat

At one point in time, we had a dozen or so parakeets in the home... and they used to fly around (yes, true story 🙏🏽) ~ so much joy! #Spiritchat

A4: #spiritchat letting go of other people’s expectations. They don’t guide my decisions anymore….

"'How does it feel to be a heart?’ For all I know is Love, And I find my heart Infinite And Everywhere!” - Hafiz, from I HEARD GOD LAUGHING; translation: Daniel Ladinsky #spiritchat (A1) #poetry #mysticpoetry #imageandverse #heart #love #valentinesday #sufi #sufipoetry #books #poetrybooks

Q3. What are some traits... of those who show and practice strong (emotional) intelligence? #heartmonth #Spiritchat

A3: Equanimity.. #spiritchat

Q2. What tends to bring your heart peace and joy? Anything that brings angst and pain? #Spiritchat

I love this morning mantra #SpiritChat

A1: I’m slowly reading a Jack Kornfield book and have been muttering this to myself for a couple of weeks. It softens my energy. “May I be filled with loving kindness. May I be well. May I be at peace and ease. May I be happy.” The practice is remarkably calming. #spiritchat

Let’s begin! Q1. “Strengthening the Heart” ~ what do you see, hear feel with this phrase in this moment? #Spiritchat

Today’s #SpiritChat live conversation on “Strengthening the Heart” is inspired by observance of #HeartMonth in February 💙 Namaste.
