Love is the Greatest Healer
By Emmy Vadnais, OTR/LOriginally published at I Love You Institute What is Love? “I love you.” Isn’t that what we long to hear? How often do you hear it or say it? How often do you feel love? Love is what everyone seems to be looking for – to be seen, valued, accepted, cared for, cherished or adored, treated with kindness, and to feel pleasure and connected instead of isolated and alone. Love is what unites us instead of dividing us. We are social creatures and we need each other to survive, learn, and grow. Truth, beauty and wisdom may be synonymous with love.

The summer is when our hearts can be the most open, as the summer light is connected to our soul or heart’s light. Questions to reflect upon: What brings you joy? What makes you…

Happy Valentine’s! How Much Do You Love Yourself?
With Valentine’s just around the corner, we often turn our attention to “that someone special” or romantic love. Intimacy and connection with others is important to us, but how much do you love or even like yourself? After 7 years of providing deep emotional support and healing after being trained in “Emotional Clearing”, a form of interactive guided mindfulness meditation, similar to Vipassana, a Buddhist meditation which means “clear-seeing”, and what Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction is based on, and providing Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), I have witnessed how all types of emotional, psychological, spiritual, and often, physical pain go back to how much a person loves and accepts or rejects…
