Ramblings from the publisher
In this month of February where many people are focused on Valentine’s Day and all the traditions/beliefs that come with this holiday, I’d like to remind you that there are many different ways of loving.
Yes, romantic love is so very wonderful and many of us want that in our lives. However, if one doesn’t have romantic love at this time let’s not waste time pining away for something at will come, one day, if and when we are open to it.
“If and when we are open to it” reminds me to say... are you actually leaving room in your life for a new romantic love to enter? Feng Shui teachings have a lot to say about allowing room for someone new to come into your life. Is there room in your garage for a second car? What about inside the house, like in your bedroom? Do you go out to places where a mix of people gather so that you might have the opportunity to meet a mate? These are just some things to think about.
In the mean time, we have family, friends and neighbors around us, what kind of love can you nurture in these relationships? Can you find ways to be a more loving family member or friend? And what about LOVING YOURSELF! We ALL could be more loving and kind to ourselves.
And in all our relationships connection is key.
The following is an excerpt from
The Power of Enough by Elizabeth Husserl
This month’s book review
Connection serves as the bedrock of intimacy, initiating the bond that draws us closer to others and fosters a sense of closeness. It is the profound feeling of being seen, heard, and valued, recognizing a shared connection with another individual. Built through shared experiences, interests, or values, connection thrives on open communication, empathy, and vulnerability.
STRATEGIES FOR EMBODYING CONNECTION
• Prioritizing quality time and presence with loved ones, free from distractions or interruptions.
• Expressing gratitude and appreciation for the people in your life, through your word and your actions.
• Practicing vulnerability and openness in your relationships, sharing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences authentically.
• Seeking out opportunities for meaningful conversations and interactions with others.
• Cultivating a sense of connection with nature and the world around you through outdoor activities or mindfulness practices.
