The more I focus on love the more it feels like an energy, usually building in my chest
But I do occasionally have a feeling that it is throughout my whole being. Perhaps as my own restrictions around flowing love fall away it will be able to move more freely/fully through me on a consistent basis
Love with restrictions and conditions is not love
Love will flow everywhere if we allow it
A shift I noticed. When I first started doing the Hold With Love meditations on myself, I would declare my intent, “I choose to hold myself with love,” and then start listing good thing about myself. “I’m considerate. I’m smart. I’m kind to animals.” I see now that I was try to justify the love I was receiving, eve from myself. There had to be a reason. Now, when I do this meditation for myself there is no list. Just a flow of love because I am.
Even as a feeling of love builds it doesn’t get harder or more forceful. It feels to me like the sensation moving through me is one of a growing softness and openness
