What is Emotional Heart Health?

When you learn Heart Rhythm Practice you should be able to demonstrate the following qualities of emotional heart health:

Emotional Receptivity:

(Left side of heart)

  • Being aware of your emotions.

  • Feeling the deep emotions of others.

  • Seeing your ideal in others.

  • Thankful that you have the parents you have.

  • Able to be deeply moved by beauty and tragedy.

  • Being quick to forgive.

  • Having no blame toward anyone for anything.

Emotional Expression:

(Right side of heart)

  • Being able to hold an emotion so you can choose how to express it.

  • Holding two contrasting emotions at the same time.

  • Not avoiding what makes you uncomfortable.

  • Maintaining your optimism independently of conditions.

  • Reliably fulfilling your responsibilities.

  • Using an art form to express what you can't say.

  • Having a greater effect upon the world than the world has upon you.

What diminishes our natural state of
emotional heart health?

Scars in the heart are old wounds that have deadened parts of the heart so it is no longer receptive to the pain of others or our own internal condition.

Ulcers of the heart are wounds that still leak, wasting the valuable energy of the heart that is needed to respond to life with courage and creativity.

How do we restore emotional heart health?

The heart is healed by giving it attention and power, so we use interlocking methodologies that incorporate both consciousness and energy.

Element-Energy-Transfer is a method of sending subtle energy from the teacher to the student. This method is used until the student has developed all four subtle energies through their own Heart Rhythm Meditation.

Breath practices are used to operate directly upon the emotional body, strengthening emotions or complementing them.

Sound practices are used to invoke very powerful, transpersonal emotions that flood the heart and overwhelm all personal emotions.

Healing by Absorption is used to circulate subtle energy through the heart of the teacher and student to effect a physical and emotional healing in the student.

 

A Heart Ecologist

A "Heart Ecologist" is someone who is concerned with the interaction between the environment and their heart.

A Heart Ecologist is aware that their environment has an effect upon them, and that their heart has an effect upon the environment.

Because of this awareness, and because of their proficiency with Heart Rhythm Meditation, a Heart Ecologist is able to have a greater effect upon their world than their world has upon them.
