What is heart-centered life? What does living in love mean?
People often talk about heart-centered life or living in love in spiritual circles. This heart-centered life can sound like a fairytale, where everything is perfect, and the sun keeps shining. But that is not really what it is about or how it is showing up on Earth. And that’s why I want to open the concept from my perspective of experiencing a heart-centered life and living in love because I know there are others who also feel like it sounds like a fairytale and not a possible reality.
I had heard about living in love and the heart-centered life for years. But it took me a very long time to really:
– Understand what heart-centered life and living in love meant (and understand that the concept is constantly evolving).
– Understand that heart-centered people are not perfect, and they, too, feel fear.
– Understand that heart-centered people are not more spiritual or better people.
– Understand that it is a reality where you go and return and go back.
– Understand how it shows up in my daily life and truly experience it.
Now, let’s dive deeper into all of these points that I understood.
What does living in love & heart-centered life mean?
Living in love or a heart-centered life means living in 5D or higher consciousness. In this consciousness, you choose daily freedom and love over fear and struggle. And you build your life from that perspective. As a result, you feel free to be who you are, do things you love, and live in your power. That shows up in everything you do in life: how you treat yourself and others and how you build your company or work for others, just to name a few examples.
The more people experience this beautiful consciousness as their reality, the more they help others to feel it and help transform this planet together.
Heart-centered people are not perfect, and they, too, feel fear
You will still be a normal human, having negative thoughts, emotions, and feelings when you live in love. You will experience setbacks in life. You will feel fear. But like nature, you evolve from the darkness of polar night into midsummer light without resistance. You feel, you choose, and you heal. And your overall focus is on love, positivity, safety, joy, and flow rather than struggle, fear, and negativity. You unconditionally love yourself and others, and your cup is always (more than) full rather than half full or half empty.
You truly know, understand, and accept that you are not perfect and will have an ego. You see perfection as an illusion, and your relationship with your ego has transformed.
heart-centered DOES NOT MAKE YOU MORE spiritual or a better person
Let’s be clear, living in love does not make anyone a better person. Because how can one even define a better person?
It also does not make you more spiritual. Why? Because spirituality – and your spiritual journey – looks different than others. You will explore the same collective themes, but the journey is different. Many people have their hearts open and feel unconditional love towards themselves and others without being spiritual.
It is a reality where you go and return and go back
There are many different realities happening at the same time: 3D, 4D, 5D, 6D etc., and one is the heart-centered life (5D). So many people keep visiting the heart-centered lifestyle and getting to feel the beauty of it. Some spend a lot of time there, but everyone spends also time in 3D or 4D Earth. And that is normal – that’s part of the human experience! The difference between living in love and visiting it is that you know how to return to living in love – and you create your life from that perspective.
How it shows up in my daily life
I sometimes feel like I live on another planet, when I experience living in love. As a psychic, I see it like there is a see-through veil between some things happening on Earth – and my life, that looks totally different. But, like mentioned above, then there are days and weeks I am strongly rooted in 3D and 4D.
In my daily life, it shows up in things like:
– I feel eternal space and freedom within me (Goddess/Creator) to be who I am
– I love myself unconditionally
– I know how to experience my feelings and emotions and I take care of myself
– I understand what fear feels like, how to process it, and also how to lift myself back up from fear
– I experience my inner power more and more
– I am connected with my life purpose – and I know my role right now in building better Earth
– I work daily on my energy vibration
There are many pieces of advice that I could give you about how to experience this loving consciousness more and more.
