Expanding the Heart Using Four Subtle Energies

What are the Elements? The Four Elements: Air, Fire, Water and Earth are fundamental energies, states and building blocks of reality. They are the forces that operate within your heart to expand it within the four dimensions of growth.

How are the Elements present in our lives? At any given time, people and their emotions and situations are characterized by one of the Elements. Understanding the nature of that Element provides a great insight for you to see yourself and others clearly. The ability to invoke an Element in yourself gives you a deep well of inner resources such as creativity, courage, compassion and perseverance. You can rise to the challenge of any situation when you know which Element is called for at that time.
