Daily Excerpt: How to Live from Your Heart (Hucknall)
excerpt from How to Live from Your Heart by Nanette Hucknall -
Making the Heart Work for You
Each person has a unique way to access and experience the heart center. You may be a person who feels pressure in your chest. This pressure tells you that your heart center is being activated. You may also experience a charge of energy that feels like a sudden wave of heat or an expansion of the chest. These are common ways in which people experience their heart center.
Some other ways that are less common are a sudden quickening of breath that resounds in the middle of your chest, a fast or slow movement in the same area that can feel like a rotating ball, a sharp pain that lasts just an instant, or a wave of oscillating colors. You may even see a symbol. A rose or a flame is a common symbol for the heart.
People experience and process information in four different ways:
Visual: You can close your eyes and see a scene with the mind’s eye. If you are visual, you can literally see scenes and sometimes they will be moving. You may see color or symbols when you connect to your heart.
Auditory: You can hear from a place inside you. You may hear voices or even music. Beethoven wrote everything with his inner ear after he went deaf. He could hear it perfectly, even the orchestral arrangements. You may experience sound, or even a silent ‘yes’ when working with your heart.
Sensory: You experience everything in your body. You feel definite body reactions to emotional situations. For example, if someone is criticizing you, you may feel sudden tension and constriction in parts of your body. In connecting with your heart, you would probably feel a negative reaction in your chest.
Feeling: These people have an emotional response. Your reaction to things is usually feeling them, whether it be feeling a person’s moods or just feeling your own emotions fully. You would probably feel warmth when you connect to your heart center.
The above are the standard ways of human experience. Of course, no one person has just one of these modalities. Humans, in their complexity, make many combinations and even change them for certain situations. Generally, there are two you will find most prominent, and even those will vary in intensity according to your personal responsiveness.
