Romantic Love
From The Leveraging Love Series
For those of us privileged enough to have experienced “falling in love”, its quite simply the best feeling in the world. In this show Rick and I explore the vocabulary people use to describe this indescribable feeling is always the same: “I feel like a teenager”, “I’m floating through my day,” “I’ve found my soul mate”, and so on.

Love Power
From The Leveraging Love Series
At the present time in our evolution the word Love is banded about all the time: Romantic Love principally but also family Love, Love of country, Love of a cause and so on. Where people go it seems Love goes too!

Forgiveness
The quality of our relationships can be seen as a litmus test of our own attitudes and behavior.
For most of us, the dream of wreaking revenge on those we believe have hurt us usually remains exactly that, a dream. Our ego-self constantly reinforces its identity by holding the grudge with a painful pride: “I shall never forgive you for this…” is worn as a heavy cloak of perceived protection from further hurt.

Gratitude
Being grateful for what we have affirms that there are good things outside of ourselves that come to us.
Shifting your mindset is spiritual rocket fuel and is essential for navigating life with inner elegance. Being in the reciprocal flow of gratitude is quite simply better for us! Feeling nurtured by a benevolent world is a great stress reliever.

Inspiration For An Elegant Week
Say It!
Ask For What You Want.
Not speaking up for what we need is a major cause of unhappiness. But once we see that asking improves our relationships and helps others, it can give us the courage and clarity to speak out effectively.
Monday, July 27, 2015
“Say It” looks at why we find it so hard to ask for what we need when it’s one of the main causes for unhappiness and disappointment in our relationships. By misguidedly believing that it’s selfish and inappropriate to ask, we tend to ask ineffectively or don’t ask at all. When we examine how the “ripple effect” of asking allows others to be an authentic part of our lives, and by meeting our needs they met theirs, it gives us the courage, conviction and clarity we need to ask in a way that will lead to a more productive and peaceful life.

Love Power
This is the 1st part of my exploration of the Aspiration of Leveraging Love; Love Power
Of all of the Elegant Aspirations at our disposal Leveraging Love is probably the most powerful. Much of the circumstance of our lives depends upon where we choose to give Love, where we search for Love and when we withhold Love. At the present time in our evolution the word Love is banded about all the time: Romantic Love principally but also family Love, Love of country, Love of a cause and so on. Where people go it seems Love goes too!

Romantic Love
Whether our Romantic relationships are rooted in Rapture or grow out of friendship, there is only one truly effective way to create a union that supports a healthy life.
For those of us privileged enough to have experienced “falling in love”, its quite simply the best feeling in the world. The vocabulary people use to describe this indescribable feeling is always the same: “I feel like a teenager”, “I’m floating through my day,” “I’ve found my soul mate”, and so on. So powerful is this force that we simply forget that this Divine feeling never endures. I use the word “Divine” here because it’s my belief that for many of us, Romantic Love is the nearest we get to heaven on earth. But at some point we always come back down.

Shadow Love
We can Leverage our Love in many ways and some of those ways have a seamy, shadowy under-side.
Wherever Love manifests The Shadow follows: Romantic relationships can descend into entanglements when partners become threatened by the growth and development of their loved one, fearing it will lead to abandonment. Parents’ Love for their offspring can turn into dis-empowerment and entrapment for the children in an effort to retain emotional control. Children can withhold Love from their parents to gain an emotional, and sometimes material, advantage.

True Love
Having explored the many ways we Leverage our Love from Love Power to Romantic Love and Shadow Love, we now get to the most elusive type of Love of them all, True Love.
Over the last few months I have come to believe it is impossible to fully explain Love. Continually difficult to grasp and impossible to rationalize, we can explore it and tussle with it but we can never completely explain it because it is, essentially, inexplicable. Inexplicable because Love is a feeling and feelings are intensely personal and hard to describe. Science cannot assist us with a neat definition but this is where the arts, music, literature and storytelling come into their own
