  • Relaxing, smiling and enjoying make the feeling of happiness/joy/beauty grow stronger and clearer
  • When we try to monitor/strengthen our feeling, the feeling becomes weaker because this involves effort  from the brain which makes the brain more dominant. 
  • As your heart grow stronger, it will be harder for your brain to block your heart.
  • Relaxing, smiling and enjoying will make your heart and feeling stronger.

Cleansing our heart is a very important part of the process to open our heart bigger. This can be achieved through the  open heart meditation/prayer

Heart and Children 

It is very easy and natural for children to open their hearts.  You can guide children in the Strengthening and Feeling Heart exercise.  Children also enjoy doing Open Heart Meditation/Prayer.  Supporting children to be in their heart can help them tremendously.  It can expand their creative abilities, help them to manage their emotions, improve behavior, enhance interpersonal relationships and help them to realize that true happiness comes from within. 

If children do not learn to experience the joy of their heart, they are at greater risk of looking outside of themselves for happiness.  This can lead to chasing desires or engaging in unproductive behaviors, in the hope of finding contentment. 

While practicing to be in your heart, you can put on the music and come up with creative ways to have fun with your children.   After your children are able to experience the nice feeling in their hearts, it is wonderful to give them the opportunity to guide you to be in your heart.  Children love to see you smile and be happy.  The more you smile and let your heart be happy, the more your children will enjoy.   How wonderful it is when we are role models for our children, showing them that our hearts are the key to happiness, love and joy.  What a gift to share your hearts with each other in a deep and meaningful way.  How blessed are our children to realize and feel the experience of sharing love.
