opening your heart
Dear Readers,
In our world, where strength is often equated with emotional rigidity and restraint, choosing to open your heart is a courageous act. Opening your heart means intentionally embracing vulnerability. This means letting go of the fear of judgment or rejection and being open to both joy and pain. It’s acknowledging that while being open-hearted can make us feel exposed, it’s also the pathway to genuine connection and deeper understanding.
try this simple practice
In a conversation with someone that you feel safe with, intentionally share something personal or heartfelt that you might usually keep to yourself.
Reflect on and acknowledge your own feelings after sharing, recognizing the courage it took.
Encourage the other person to share, creating a mutual space for openness.
Show appreciation for the mutual sharing, reinforcing the connection and trust built.

May this week's practice of opening your heart enrich your life.
