Explorations Of Your Heart
What is it?
Welcome to a journey into the heart. I believe that we have choice about what we feel and that begins in the heart. My mission is to help heal and nourish feelings through empathy and compassion. By using visualization and feelings together, I use the heart and my knowledge about emotions to visually help people feel an intentional emotion. I am calling these visualizations Explorations of the Heart. By feeling what the image evokes as if it has already happened, your heart will tell your body to create that kind of physicality and energy needed to make them a reality. When your mind and heart are in sync, manifesting can happen more easily. You can look at this art everyday as a tool to help you feel and choose a connection to your own heart. It has been proven that visuals are so powerful that people who look at art with a sense of awe have improved health, brain, and immune function activity.
The heart is a powerful organ and we are discovering more and more about how it is responsible for our quality of life, how we function, our health, and our decision making. The human heart beats differently according to our feelings. Positive emotions help our heart and body work better. The heart has it’s own brain matter that actually directs the brain about certain feelings. Being mindful about which feelings we entertain effects both us and those around us. The heart has the largest magnetic field than any other part of the body. The magnetic field can be up to a radius of several feet and is one of the reasons why one can sense the feelings of others just by being in their presence.
The Process &
What Is Included?
In our modern society many people have trouble managing their emotions, but it doesn’t have to be that way. We can choose to be better. This process is a beautiful collaborative way to bring yourself back to a place of empathy and compassion. I would love to help you nourish and bring those desires, feelings, thoughts, and ideas to life! The process begins with some preliminary questions and is followed by a quiet 90-minute session. In the session, we will do a short meditation to help open our hearts, to bring us to an open place to share feelings, and to proceed with empathy and compassion. Then, I spend time listening to you and asking lots more questions. Towards the end of the session, I guide you in visualizing positivity in your life, so I can see what it looks like to you. Then I will creating the Exploration of YOUR Heart. When I finish, we will have a revealing ceremony and you will have a new piece of art to use as a daily practice to help begin to experience that feeling more often. In that way, these feelings become your new reality.
Why You Want An
Exploration Of Your Heart?
Everyone wants to be the best version of themselves. Whether, you want a reminder to have more balance, to stop bad habits, to be more loving and connected, or whatever you feel you want to be, I think no matter who you are or how perfect or imperfect your life may be, there is always room for improvement. I know how overwhelming making changes can be. There are tons of people out there who are dealing with difficulties and sometimes feel like slaves to their emotions, but it doesn’t have to be that way. We all have a choice and we are not alone. Once we make that choice to try to be better, we can bring our hearts and minds to a place of coherence. Once we feel that coherence, we can begin to manifest what we want in our lives. I am not here to fix the problems, but I am here to create a beautiful customized reminder for you to look at everyday and to inspire you and help you become more like the person you want to be. I would really love to share this experience and journey with you!
Why I Am Offering Explorations Of Your Heart?
I love exploring the feelings and emotions of the heart. Not just mine, but I love hearing others stories about their feelings. I want to share what I have learned about the heart and emotions by sharing some very personal and vulnerable moments. When I was growing up, I was told I was too sensitive. I struggled with depression and difficult emotions. My feelings were always something that heavily dictated my decisions, so I understand that it doesn’t always feel like we have a choice. In fact, it can be overwhelming at times. Feelings are not just responses to outside circumstances. We can can choose how we react and what we feel. On my path to healing, I found that I had a choice in what I felt. I had a choice whether to linger in dark, hollow places alone, or step out of it. It was and still is not always easy, but I am the only person who can make changes in myself. Everyday I choose to wake up. I choose what emotions I nourish and which ones I acknowledge and ignore. I choose to show up with all that I am, positive and negative, struggling to do my best by making conscious decisions about how I use my feelings. I found this to be one of the most valuable things to learn about myself and it is teaching me how I can help others. One day, I stumbled upon the Heart Math Institute. I spent hours watching videos and reading on their website. I was totally fascinated with the human heart. I learned about the heart and emotions. There is so much to our emotions. They effect how we feel, how we function, our health, and our decision making. I realized that there are lots of ways to manage emotions through breathing, yoga, meditation, journaling, art making, etc…
Armed with this ground breaking knowledge, I began my heart series of images. At first it was all about emotions. Explaining a feeling through the visual of a human heart. I chose the human heart image to remind me that the heart is not just the center of the bodies circulatory system, but an emotion center as well. I started with both positive and negative feelings. Enabling others to empathize with feelings of heartbreak, or the feeling of pure love and light.
And that is where I find myself now. I love exploring the feelings and emotions of the heart. Not just mine, but I love hearing others stories about their feelings. I found myself wanting to make more space in my life to help others with their emotions.
Each Exploration of the Heart signifies an emotion, sometimes mine and sometimes a client’s. I encourage you to really feel what the art is making you think about and what kinds of situations it brings to mind. What about it resonates with you?
