Did you know...
that Your heart is more than just a little pump...much more!
A colleague asked me to do some "heartstorming." The word threw me for a loop. I experienced a mental speedbump while searching to make sense of what she had just said.
Heartstorming? Searching, searching...that must be like brainstorming...kind of?? But using our hearts instead of our heads to generate ideas.
Got me to thinking...
The brain has all the status and clout. It reigns supreme amongthe human organs. Sits on top, literally! It is credited with being the center of human consciousness, the center of our intelligence,and the source of our power.
But what if it isn't?
What if the real source of our power, intelligence and consciousness is in our hearts?
Our brain thinks; our heart knows.
Our brain judges; our heart loves.
Our brain divides; our heart connects.
Our brain sees duality; our heart sees wholeness.
In honor of Valentine's Day this week, let your heart take center stage...
Give birth to a heartchild to play with your brainchild. Harness your heartpower to complement your brainpower. Try a little heartstorming instead of brainstorming.
Let me know how it goes.
Happy Valentine's Day!
Joyfully!
