Thoughts from CJ

Here are some of my ruminations about the human heart to jumpstart the topic.

The heart is an organ, but it’s an organ that plays the music of the soul – it’s the music of the birds and the trees – a universal song.  We forget – we forget to look everyday into the beauty of this divine instrument that holds so much power – the power to heal – the power to see beyond physical realities – to see the purest essence of each being, each life.  The heart’s voice is a beautiful poem, helping us understand the beauty, love, and spirit that reside in every living thing.

We must develop our ears to hear the spectacular symphony of love.  The call is so beautiful and it comes to us every day. It helps us to feel the power of life throbbing through us – through our very Being – and to know that the power is in each of us. The heart is our ultimate source for  true knowing.  We each have the key inside of us and must use it to open ourselves and access the majestic power of our hearts.

Join us this Wednesday as we explore the contours and beauty of our hearts with Christina Pratt from 1:30-2:00 PT.  Listen to the following in depth discussions on gratitude, compassion, faith and courage, forgiveness, and self-love and how you can bring more love into your life.
