Going beyond the usual romantic and conditional love we are mostly surrounded by.<br><br>&#8220;Love is one of the universal experiences and also one of the most mysterious. That\u2019s&nbsp;because it means different things <br>to different people.<br><br>There\u2019s a power that can be found in a very precise kind of love that\u2019s already within us &#8211;&nbsp;it\u2019s something we must acknowledge, <br>embrace, awaken, and accept in our own lives.<br>This is what the wisdom of our ancestors said as well.<br> There\u2019s something within us, and if we can embrace what already <br>exists, it heals us and transcends the great suffering in our&nbsp;lives.<br>If we don\u2019t accept it, sometimes we succumb to the pain and suffering that comes from&nbsp;the inability to love and the inability to love <br>ourselves. <br><br>The key is that the role we allow love to play is a choice. <br><br>We will all have hurt because all things are impermanent, personal tragedies and suffering &#8211; the choice is what do we do with the pain and suffering.<br>It\u2019s about our ability to awaken a force that already lives within us, to find the strength from that force to give new meaning to those hurts, and when we do that, we find the highest levels of&nbsp;our <br>personal mastery.<br>Often, the people who are willing to love and are willing to love on the deepest levels are&nbsp;those who have been hurt deeply and learned to transcend the hurt. That power frees us.<br><br>What are the emotional blocks, the psychological dams that we\u2019ve put up? <br>When we want to love, our job is to find everything about ourselves that is not love. When we do that, all that\u2019s left is love.<br>The difference between our primal capacity to love and the <br>perceptions of love that we hold today is the distortion that brings us suffering, disappointment, and fear.<br><br>When we create heart-brain harmony, we\u2019re also opening a channel to move beyond judgment and the polarity of the mind. In the polarity organ, you are always going to have good\/ bad, right\/wrong, <br>success\/failure, worthy\/not worthy. This is the way of thinking that creates the suffering.<br><br>Shanti Ishta (Cherokee) &#8211; \u201cThe single eye of the heart.\u201d Discerns right and wrong without the judgement of right and wrong.&#8221; <br><br>~ Gregg Braden (The Wisdom Codes)<br><br>\u201cStrive to make your love greater than your need, and let love be the most powerful force in your life. Then nothing can overcome you.\u201d<br><br>~ Kate McGahan, Hospice counselor<br><br>\u201cYour task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself that you could build against it.\u201d<br><br>~ Rumi<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" style=\"color:#b14a05;font-size:28px\">Monday 25.07.<br><strong>Overall Love<\/strong><br>Flow<br><br>Wednesday 27.07.<br><strong>Loving Kindness<\/strong><br>Slow Flow<br><br>Thursday 28.07.<br><strong>Open Theme<\/strong><br>Yogis Choice<br><br>Friday 29.07.<br><strong>Self-Love<\/strong><br>Flow<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-text-color\" style=\"color:#09842c;font-size:26px\">I truly love our online yoga community \ud83d\ude42<br><br>With gratitude,<br><br>Nicole<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:26px\"><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My dear Yogis and Yoginis, I would like to share with you some thoughts about love expressed by different people.
