Love is quite simply the most precious possession in existence. And my mission is to share the best insights I know to bring more love into each of your lives. Today, I want to share the most powerful way to create MORE LOVE in your life in 2018.
This beautiful insight comes from my dear friend Ken Page’s game-changing best seller Deeper Dating: How to Drop the Games of Seduction and Discover the Power of Intimacy.
If you want more love in 2018, try this life-changing exercise from Ken:
Think about all the people you know, from your nearest and dearest to people you may not have thought about for years. And just ask yourself these three questions:
- Who truly loves me?
- Who sees and treasures me for who I really am?
- Whom do I trust to have my best interests at heart?
Each of the people you picked is gold. They are your personal dream-team in life. The very wisest path to love is to nurture these relationships – by doing three things:
Practice giving more to each one of these precious people.
Practice asking for more from each of them as well (yes, it’s true, asking for more is an act of intimacy!)
And most of all: enjoy them. This last suggestion is perhaps the greatest act of life wisdom that I know.
Follow these 3 steps and watch 2018 blossom into the most love-filled year of your life.
In Deeper Dating, Ken teaches “micro-meditations;” small practices that take less than three minutes, but have the power to enrich your entire intimacy journey. This micro-meditation can be your foundation for a love-filled 2018.
Micro-Meditation: The Love that’s Already Yours
Pick the person who stood out for you most as you reflected on your relationships. Now try the following:
- Think about what you love most about this person.
- Think about the quality of this person’s love for you.
- Remember one time that you deeply felt the bond between the two of you.
- Hold this person to your heart for a moment, and say “Thank you.”
- And now, just let your love quietly ripple through you.
Practice this micro-meditation as many times as you wish, and just watch as your reservoir of love deepens and widens, day after day.
And I promise you, it will. Your heart will become warmer, your life will become richer, and you’ll start meeting new people who also love you for who you are.
