Another thing that can help the heart space is READING a self-help book about what is creating the imbalance or negative emotions in your heart. Somebody out there has gone through what you have been through and survived. They not only survived, they healed, and they thrive. Reading to HELP yourself heal is a way to DEEPEN the self-love you have for yourself because it is a healing the wounds in which love is leaking from.
Is it childhood trauma? There is a book for that.
Is it the divorce you never got over? There is a book for that.
Amazon has a search bar and you can type in exactly what you are looking for.
I love going to Barnes and Noble and you can go to the Self Help section. You can let a book pull you in. Ok, you can be “guided” to a particular book. Ingesting what you are reading gets into your mind, your spirit, your soul and begins to help heal those wounds. I have so many books that have impacted and changed my life for the better. I encourage you, as a way to DEEPEN THE ROOTS OF SELF LOVE, to READ your way to heal the heart.
Some books that helped me in my journey:
One Day My Soul Just Opened Up-Iyanla Vanzant
Something More: Excavating Your Authentic Self -Sarah Ban Breathnach
The Power-Rhonda Byrne
Inspiration- Dr. Wayne Dyer
Just to name a few but, everyone’s journey and needs are different! You have to be willing to be a participant in your own healing. You must be willing to do some searching.
Seek and you will find!
