Love is the essence of us all — we are all Love. Our soul essence is that of pure, unconditional love. It is the energy of who we really are at the deepest core, within the inner heart of everyone. It is our natural state of being, an inherent part of us that we can always choose to connect to, to live and to express.
At the level of the soul, we are able to love without conditions – not needing external conditions to feel the love that is emanating from within.
This is what unconditional love is. It is connecting and tapping into your unlimited source and supply of love from within you, that is always present and flowing in an infinite amount of supply.
It is finding the love within, that is not dependent on any situation outside of you. This is the kind of love that your soul, or your Inner Being/Higher Self, feels for you and for everyone at all times, regardless of what’s going on. And you are never cut off from this stream of love from within. You can just sometimes block the flow, either consciously or unconsciously.
The key to practicing unconditional love everyday is to shed away everything that blocks your connection to it. Because whenever you feel good inside, you are connected. When you feel bad, you are blocking the flow of love from within you.
Taking care of your connection is the only thing that’s needed for you to allow this access to true unconditional love. You will then be able to radiate this love from within, to the people around you and to the world at large. Every love that you give out creates a ripple effect. This unconditional love is the greatest power ever known in this Universe. It’s what holds everything together in its most perfect, synchronistic fashion.
Whenever you embody unconditional love, you are literally freeing yourself from external conditions, and you are becoming a beacon of light that others can follow to find freedom for themselves as well.
With unconditional love, you set yourself and everyone free. Because the way you feel is now determined by your inner connection instead of dictated by the external circumstances.
And this all starts within ourselves. In this post I’ll be sharing with you 6 ways on how to practice unconditional love — how to connect more and tap into this unconditional love that you truly are on a regular basis. Let’s begin!
1. Recognize the oneness in everyone, the connectedness of everything.
When you start to recognize that everyone around you and everyone you encounter is also unconditional love at their core, just like you are, and that any kind of deviation from love that you see is just them blocking the flow of it, you will begin to show them compassion and understanding, instead of anger, worry or fear on what they are doing or how they are behaving.
You will know that everyone is love at their natural state, and is either allowing or disallowing the connection. You can peacefully send them blessings and help them on their journey back home — back to unconditional love. As you transcend this illusion of separation, you will see the oneness and unity of all things.
In the eyes of unconditional love, we are all equal – no one is superior or inferior to anyone.
2. Look beyond the illusion of form and see the bigger picture (the higher perspective).
Realize that in this life, there is always a broader picture at play, and that each one of us is always divinely guided, protected, and supported all the time, not just some of the time. This means knowing that this physical reality is not all that there is — that we are all spiritual beings having a temporary human 3D experience.
As you do, you bring spirit into the material, and you are able to see the bigger view of things, instead of being limited by what the human mind alone can perceive. You literally become “in this world but not of it”. No matter what chaos or disturbance that manifests in the physical, you can remain peaceful and calm, and maintain your connection, as you anchor in this higher viewpoint of your soul. You are able to transcend fear and limitations brought about by too much attachment to the physical reality.
In the eyes of unconditional love, everything is always working out for you and for everyone, no matter how it appears.
Practice looking beyond the veil of form, and hold the knowing that divine forces are always at work behind the scenes and everything is serving the highest good of all, whether or not it appears to be that way in the moment.
3. Become a lover of life, a lover of love.
Be a lover of life itself, in its wholeness and entirety, embracing all of the contrasts and diversity that is part of the process of life’s evolution. Your every breath becomes an expression of your gratitude and appreciation to life. This means seeing life at its limitless beauty.
It is loving no matter what arises because you know that life is continuously unfolding perfectly for you and for everyone else too. Life is always moving toward what is best for everyone involved. You tune in to the best that life is offering you, and become a passionate lover of life. This is self-acceptance and self-love at its highest.
In the eyes of unconditional love, you accept and embrace all of Life.
4. Have a true appreciation of life lessons. See everything as a gift.
When you see every circumstance that comes your way as a gift for your life journey, you will feel gratitude and appreciation for each moment, and you will extract what’s good in it every single time. You realize that all these lessons are for your soul’s growth, and you see them as adding to your well-being, instead of something to push away and resist. You seek for the good that is inherent in every situation, and you fully integrate the lessons as gifts for your soul’s evolution. Remember that there are no accidents or coincidences. You are calling in these “gifts” toward you for a beneficial reason.
In the eyes of unconditional love, everything is serving you.
5. Surrender the ego and become at one with your true self.
As you surrender the ego, you release the need to control, judge and figure things out. You become more allowing instead of resisting the present moment. The need for the human mind to know all the answers all at once will be gone because you are now in a place of trust and acceptance that everything you need will come to you when you need it. And when it doesn’t come, it means you do not need it.
As you let go of the need to know, you come to trust life more. Your security in life then comes, not from the attachment and control of the external, but by the inner connection that you have to your true source of security. You become more in your heart, than in your mind.
In the eyes of unconditional love, your heart is open and you are trusting life.
6. Realize that you are always creating from the inside out. You are a creator.
When you embody the knowing that you are the powerful creator of your life from the inside, you make conditions irrelevant as you go back to the true source of everything that’s outside—which is always you. Instead of thinking in terms of how the external world is affecting how you feel, you now think in terms of what emotions you do prefer and look for them inside of yourself. You realize that you are not a victim of the conditions, that there’s no need for blame and nothing needs to be forgiven, because you are the one creating your experiences and no one else. You come back to your own power as you become the conscious creator who now creates from the inside out, instead of the other way around.
In the eyes of unconditional love, you are a creator and you are honoring your own creations.
I hope these 6 ways to practicing unconditional love has been inspiring, eye-opening and heart-expanding for you.
Remember that love is the most powerful energy that exists. And as we all become and live the unconditional love that we are, we create a new world – a New Earth where love, joy and harmony prevail, magic and miracles occur as everyday experiences, and we shift to a higher vibration where anything and everything is possible.
Wishing you Light, Love, and Happiness! 🙂
