LOVE

It takes a great deal of confidence to love. It takes confidence to give love freely, to fully let in and receive the love others give us, and to express our love openly and unabashedly. It takes confidence because it’s scary. Actually, it can be downright terrifying.

Loving fully is probably the biggest risk we can take in this life. Because it requires opening our hearts and putting ourselves out there, where we most definitely will get hurt at some point. And since our hearts were so open, we’ll feel that hurt deeply, and it will be painful. And yet, despite this risk and the inevitable pains that come with it, we all want and need to give and receive love.

Man, what a set up.

Fortunately, there is something we can do to increase our confidence in this area. We can cultivate the personal power, courage, and confidence to boldly put ourselves out there to receive love and face whatever comes back. We can continually expand to feel the deep and profound joy of really, vulnerably loving others, which magnifies our enjoyment of life thousands of times over. And we can learn to face the inevitable moments of pain and loss that are the consequence of loving fully and deeply with willingness and surrender.

As a result, we can love more, which makes life much more enjoyable and fulfilling. You can feel more connected, more supported, more at peace. You can have better sex and more sex, and feel really good about it. You can feel so joyous about being with someone that your heart aches in the most delightful kind of way.

You can also have people there to support you when you’re struggling. Those you love can rally behind you to soothe you, encourage you, and sometimes just take you to a bad movie where you sneak pizza slices underneath your jackets.

Let’s dive in together and look at what blocks us from having the rock-solid confidence that would allow us to love more boldly and deeply. We will uncover and clear away the core fears that stop us from feeling more love, and then we’ll discover new and powerful ways of approaching love that inspires courage and lasting confidence.

Ready? Let’s dive in!

THE PRIMARY CURRENCY

We all desperately want and need love.

Now, I know that’s not the right thing to say in a self-development book. I’m supposed to say, “All you need is within you now, and you just need to love yourself. You don’t need other peoples’ love. You are love. It’s your core essence because you are moonbeam stardust after all.”

While this stuff sounds good and can be somewhat empowering, it’s also not really true in my experience. We humans are incredibly social creatures. We depend on connection and being part of a group to survive. Tons of psychology and sociology research concludes that being isolated and lonely is incredibly hard on peoples’ moods and physical health. We need others.

We crave relationships with other people. We need them to be around us and we need to be around them.
