The journey from Mind to Heart is the journey that many are taking right now in the changing times we are living in.
Some people might start the journey with a few steps away from the world of the mind and the overthinking to which we are so addicted, but they may then retreat back into what is comfortable and familiar.
Some have been shaken out of this comfortable and familiar mind-space with a shock or surprise that rocks them to the core.
Once you’ve seen it, you can’t unsee it!
But holding firm in the energy of the heart can be tricky and being drawn back into the mind can happen frequently and sometimes without even realising.
Where are we now?
In the post-Covid years, particularly where AI and social media have leapt forward dragging some willingly and others unwillingly, many of us are already conscious of the fact that there is a war aimed at keeping us distracted and our energy directed away from seeing and acting upon what is being perpetrated on the planet and the people in the name of power and money.
If we dig a little deeper we know that some of the darker energies feed on the fear they create – and what better way to create fear and distraction than to pull us away from the light and the heart with manipulated news and social media, internet and illusion.
Illusion is what we are living in. An illusion which keeps us trapped in the mind, and every new fear or concern contracts the heart and creates divide.
If we can step out of the mind and into the heart, we can find a different energy in which to exist and we can find peace within this increasingly crazy existence on planet earth.
This place we call the heart is our direct experience of Source, God or whatever your chosen name for the higher power that enlivens and guides us if we listen. It is where we can live in complete guidance and truth that all we will ever be is pure love.
The mind, which is driven by the ego, understands that it must hold onto any connection to itself that it can, and it, in turn, can create what we then believe is our reality. This might look and feel like love, happiness and joy, but the reality is that these feelings are but a shadow of the truth that can be lived when we open the door to the true love, happiness and joy that is within the energy of the heart.
In fact, moving away from the clutches of the mind means we are moving away from the ego being in charge and shouting loudly to get our attention all the time, creating dramas and chaos, and maintaining the stories we feel define and identify us.
Connecting with the energy of the heart
We allow our heart to open and our higher self to step in with its quiet but still quite insistent voice if we can find the stillness to listen.
We allow the energy of the heart and our higher self to guide our actions and our lives through love, truth, clarity, insight and gentle, high vibrational energy.
It can take work to make this happen or to maintain this in our lives.
It’s difficult to step out of the illusion we have created, the story we’ve been telling ourselves most of our lives. Sometimes we’ve popped our heads up and done a review of the story – moved into the heart for a period of time – but then stepped back into story as a way of working through trauma or clearing karma, or whatever is attached to the story.
Many of us, through our journey from mind to heart, work on our wounds and our trauma. We are frequently taught that if we clarify and understand the story, we can eventually write a new more positive story. We believe that by doing this we are stepping out of the reality we created to protect us, which comes from the mind or the ego, and this will bring us into the heart. And while we are still under the illusion of mind, we are literally just creating a new story each time which still comes from the mind and is still driven by the ego every time we tell that story to ourself or to others.
Let’s just say here that the ego is not bad or evil. It’s not something we need to get rid of or deactivate. The ego has a place to play in our existence, which is often protective, and as we find balance between mind and heart and releasing of the story, the ego then speaks from its own place of care and concern. But when the ego starts shouting louder than the quiet voice of the heart, we know we are going back into that place of the story becoming our identity or safe space again, which comes from the mind.
Have we progressed?
One of the ways of knowing how far we’ve progressed through the work we’ve been doing is whether we can experience our old story or reality without becoming engaged or entangled in it again?
Can we witness fear without becoming afraid?
Or chaos without entanglement in the chaos and without life becoming chaotic?
Can we revisit an old wound, maybe even the wound we’ve just been working on, without returning to the identity that originally carried it as the story?
Can we become the observer of the play, rather than an actor in the drama of life?
The reactions of fear, chaos and moving back into our old identity or story are reactions connected with the 3D energy of the mind and not the 5D energy we experience when we move into the heart.
And when we move from existing mostly in the mind and we’re able to exist primarily in the heart, through letting go of the old stories, what are we going to build in the space that has been created?
What it means is that by detaching from the illusion and the false realities created in the mind by the ego, the attachments and dramas that we experience as our reaction to the world will have no meaning and no hold over us!
Simply because the mind can see down the path it is suggesting we take, it has a habit of trying to control and manipulate us at every opportunity often through fear and chaos, while pretending it is protecting us from the evils of the world.
And behind all of this noise the heart’s quiet voice is always telling us what might be a better choice.
Standing in the quiet energy of the heart
The high vibrational energy of love that fills our heart is not something to find, work towards, or attain like a reward.
It is there for us to reconnect with and it is who we already are. It is the energy that fills our entire being, not just our heart, even if we are wounded, traumatised or trying to understand and rewrite our story.
You might wonder why I haven’t talked more about being in love or using terms such as “love is the only way to live” or other love-bombing expressions being used currently.
Love can be a tricky emotion or feeling to understand. It can be hard to connect with if you’ve been wounded, traumatised, abused or neglected. It can bring up emotions that don’t feel right or good if your life story has been about lack of love. It’s different for everyone and the energy of the heart is so much more than having love for a child, a dog or a partner, or love for chocolate ice cream.
It’s not necessary to keep searching for the way to enter the heart in a bookshop, through courses and classes or online. These are still ways of being in the energy of the mind and not in the heart.
The easiest way to find this place is to sit in the silence of who we are and let the distractions fall away one by one. To become the observer of the stories and to remain disconnected from the chaos and the fear.
This process of sitting in the heart energy is not meditation.
It frees us from the need to meditate.
It is complete freedom and it is the end of the journey from mind to heart.
It is a coming home to ourselves!
How can you help yourself?
There are plenty of tools you can use to support yourself without going back into the mind-space. Look for things that are instant, concise and don’t take a lot of thought and work to use.
We love our oracle cards for tuning into the higher self when there is a question we need an answer to or just for general guidance.
Don’t overthink the results – read the oracle card set guide, sit in your heart and feel into the truth and alignment of the answer and then put it away to percolate into your life.
And with a combined sixty odd years as Master Essence Makers, you will find some great products in the Soul Harmonics category.
From Melanie’s decades as a homeopath and vibrational healer, our high vibrational essences in the New Earth Remedies category are worth a look, and we’re adding to these regularly.
Finally, our Ascension Survival Pack was created in 2025 and brings together the best of the best of our more esoteric products for the times we are living through.
Lots to get your heart and soul into, and if you don’t see what you need – ask! We love intuiting and creating support that fits the energy we are moving through.
Enjoy!
