Basic Info for Open Heart & When to Use it
Basic Flow of All Open Heart NeuroMeditations:
Step 1: Build and generate love in the heart
Step 2: Direct this to yourself first - giving unconditional love to YOU
Step 3: Continue to build/generate love and direct this to your family, friends, loved ones
Step 4: Build the love again/more and direct this to your community, to the world or to specific peoples in the world
** Start with the self and then expand to those closest and then outward from there, community, world. This process makes the self smaller while also creating a greater sense of connection with the world and being WOVEN into it. **
