Surrender to love

Since I am in the business of helping people to relax, I also have to see what stresses people, right? Today is Valentine´s day and so I decided to explore it with fresh eyes and positive energy.

When I was younger I used to hate St. Valentines, like truly hate it, not only that I didn't care about it, but cheesy couples make me feel bitter, and seeing the sweetie -almost- brainless girls (I thought back then) receiving tons and tons of roses along the day just made me hate it even more.  Do you see where am I going? the problem was not the day, or the consumerism, but my perception of love. And what I hated the most was the lack of love in my life.

Through the time I open more and more to love and happiness, and not long ago I decided to surrender and completely trust in love. 

I started to discover that love is not an illusion but I can bring it to my reality, I understood that we don't fall in love but raise in love, I understood that love is the root of the self but for many reasons we keep it locked.

I have been asking people around me how do they feel about St. Valentines and many of them have rolled their eyes, some of them seem to have a war against it and some other simply don´t care.

I read this today:

"We may not all surrender to God, but to think of surrender as breaking our attachments to limiting ideas and finding the courage to be a trustee of love is quite freeing." - Sister Jenna

And I thought about all the limiting ideas we may have in regards of love that doesn´t allow us to hug or kiss someone in public, to not say you are amazing to someone else, but specially to not spread the love within ourselves, to not think so good about who we are.

I have found it challenging but I am committed to get the best out of the life I am in charge to live :)

I have found in massage a way to connect with love within myself . I love the atmosphere a massage therapy offers for both the provider and the receiver, where for at least a couple of minutes love and goodness flow freely.

Happy LOVE day!!!!!! The day you can surrender to love and see what unfolds for you!

P.S. I made this video this morning trying to break with my own love limitations :)
