“Our emotions have a vibratory frequency to them. There are only two emotions that humankind experiences, fear and love. All other emotions branch either directly or indirectly from these two emotions. Fear has a long and slow frequency vibration to it, while love has a rapid and high frequency.”
-Eyrkah Badu
Although falling in love is an amazing feeling, L O V E is about so much more than just romance. It’s about choosing compassion instead of judgement, it’s about doing the right thing even when it’s hard. A lot of the time love is about living in alignment with your highest self and acting from a place of integrity. As the old adage says, you can’t love anyone if you don’t love yourself first!
If you are looking for a deep connection, or a soul mate, begin with self-love and you will always be guided to your vibratory match. Meaning that you will fall for someone who loves themselves too! This will make your relationship uncomplicated and genuine, providing you with the stability and foundations to last a lifetime together.
HOW TO ACT FROM A PLACE OF LOVE INSTEAD OF FEAR
When we don’t do the work and learn to love ourselves authentically, our insecurities skyrocket and we become our own worst enemy, acting from a place of fear. The following are some statements that you might think or repeat to yourself when your thoughts are stemming from a place of fear:
- I am not good, beautiful, smart, funny, talented, strong, handsome, rich ENOUGH.
- Why does he/she always get what they want, it’s not fair. I wish I could be more like so and so.
- Why would anyone want to love me? I will never find love, because I don’t deserve to be loved.
You get the picture. These are all statements and thoughts that come from a lack mindset. Even if you don’t consciously think these types of thoughts, when you dig deeper and breakdown why you behave in certain ways you may realize that there are unconscious motivations guiding your behaviour, and some of them may cause you to be acting from a place of fear.
But don’t worry, this happens to everyone and the most important thing is to recognize it when it’s happening and replace it with love, understanding, and compassion for yourself. When you choose to be kinder to yourself, and acknowledge your immeasurable value and worth, you will stop comparing yourself to others, and be happy with what you have and who you are. That’s not to say that you should never strive to be better or set goals for improvement, the idea is that you aren’t so hard on yourself in the meantime, acknowledging where you could use some growth and being proud of yourself for the little leaps along the way.
USING CRYSTALS TO ATTRACT OR ENHANCE YOUR LOVE LIFE
Using crystal healing to attract love into your life is a very powerful way to let the universe know that you are ready to embark on a journey of true love. Whether it be to build self-love or to find the love of your life – or BOTH because they are not mutually exclusive, crystals are an amazing resource to help you manifest love.
There are certain crystals that possess beautiful vibrations and properties for welcoming in and boosting love in your life. In order for this to work it is best to set a specific intention and program your crystal with that intention in mind. If you can keep up a practice of actively holding your crystal and reciting a mantra, poem, or affirmation that you wrote based around your specific intention every day for a period of time, this will yield the best results. Don’t over complicate it, just speak from your heart and focus on what you want rather than what you don’t have.
Expect miracles and they will happen, believe and receive.
