If you look at what is happening in the world &#8211; financially, politically &#8211; from my perspective it is all tied to individuals and corporations being led by Ego and Mind, with money and fame often as the driving forces.<\/p>\n<p>As the energy on the planet is shifting, and it is shifting, we are being asked to live life consciously and to lead \u00a0with our hearts rather than our minds or our egos. Teach your children to lead with their hearts and what they need to support themselves will follow.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Move into your weekend with love in your hearts, your mind and your words.<\/p>\n<p>And with that, here is The Conscious Living Wisdom Cards text for LOVE, Card #2.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For You<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With this card you are reminded that you are infinitely loveable, but before you can receive love from another person, you must first love yourself. Love is not a one-way street. It involves learning to both give and receive love.\u00a0 If we are great at giving love but cannot accept love from others, we deplete ourselves.\u00a0 Think of love as a circle of unbroken giving and receiving.\u00a0 Spend some time looking deep within and acknowledge, appreciate and validate who you are.\u00a0 Release the critical voice that says you aren\u2019t enough, or you are flawed in some way.\u00a0 Replace that voice with kind, gentle and loving words about yourself.\u00a0 Place your focus in your heart and live from this place.\u00a0 Breathe in and out of your heart to expand it and open it up.\u00a0 With each breath in, receive love and with each breath out, give love. And remember, love is a universal energy.\u00a0 There is no limit to love.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For Your Child<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Children can confuse love with attention and they often feel that love has limits.\u00a0 Take some time to both communicate and demonstrate to your child that love is like water or air.\u00a0 It is always flowing and never runs out. No matter how much we give to one person, it doesn\u2019t lessen the love we have for others, including your child.\u00a0 Children will also confuse love with acceptance.\u00a0 It is important for children to know that they are loved even when we need to correct their behavior, and it helps to remind our children that they are loved, no matter what.\u00a0 Understanding love without condition is key to your child developing healthy relationships.\u00a0 Have your child place her* hand over her heart.\u00a0 Then ask her to breathe in and out of her heart to expand it and open it up.\u00a0 Encourage her that with each breath in she fills with love and with each breath out she gives love. Teach your child to breathe love in and out and to recognize that love is unlimited.<\/p>\n<p>Love: Card #2 in The Conscious Living Wisdom Cards (Special Moms\u2019 Edition), Illustrated by Samantha Bachechi, Creative Medium LTD (C) 2010-2012 Conscious Living Unlimited LLC<\/p>\n<p>**A note about The Conscious Living Guide Wisdom Cards (Special Moms\u2019 Edition): There are 42 cards in the deck and a guide book.
