THEThe heart has become an accessory in the era of liquid relationships in which we are connected with the whole world and often disconnected by ourselves. Relations are born and dissolve with a touch on the screenemotions flow rapids like Instagram stories. Yet, precisely in this time of liquid relationships, As Zygmunt Bauman called themwe are called to remain rooted in the heart: to choose the depth instead of the speed, the presence instead of the reaction.
Love in unstable times
In imagine psychologyeach relationship is a symbolic field, A mirror through which the soul reflects. The people we meet are not just individuals, but inner images that come to tell us something about us. Thus, even leaving, getting lost, finding yourself, they are never random events: They are rites of passage.
Whenever we love, we started something. The other becomes a threshold. And only if we are rooted in the heart can we go through it without losing ourselves.
Take root in the heart
Rooting in the heart does not mean attacking. It means abandoning control and remaining present, even when the other changes, even when the form of the change changes. It is a practice. A way.
In my book 1 minute a day – daily meditationsyou find many psychic formulas to truly live relationships, with all of yourself, making it capable of really rejoicing and, if necessary, suffer, but without closing your heart. Because it is joy that pain are tools to continue along the path.
A psychic formula very useful to this end is as follows: “There is neither meeting nor separating, there is only the pure pleasure of dynamic space “.
Every time you would like to close you, do the opposite. Open. Breathe from the heart. Let love flow, even if it hurts. Because loving is the only way to heal.
The shamanic yoga of relationships
Shamanic yoga also teaches us to see the other as an evolutionary ally. In every link there is a Daimon, a guiding spirit. And when the relationship ends, that Daimon remains: in the form of teaching, archetype, transformation.
For this, in shamanic practices, the separation is as possible as the union. The other is honored as a teacher, even if he injured us. Because love is not possession: it is ritual, echo, vision.
Practice the presence in the Union
How to stay firmly in an era that changes shape every day?
The answer is in practice.
Practice of the rooted heart
Sit in silence.
Bring the left hand on the heart and the right on the abdomen.
Breathe.
With every inhale, I repeat internally: “I welcome”.
With every exhaustion: “I let go.”
Let this breathing become a bridge.
Between you and yourself.
Between you and the other.
Between your heart and the heart of the world.
Perhaps we cannot control the liquidity of the times. But we can learn to swim in the river without forgetting who we are. We can love without losing ourselves. And to stay in the heart as in a sacred temple, where every relationship, even the one that ends, is a threshold towards a truest version of ourselves.
