Everyone’s heart gets broken at one time or another. That hollow, cold feeling that aches with longing for that which was lost leaving you wondering if you can ever feel good again or, even worse, if you can feel anything at all? I’ve been asked the question many times in my years of metaphysical advising: How do you mend a broken heart? While the old adage about time healing is valid, there are some steps that you can take that can start you on the spiritual road to healing.
First, and most important is to do a cleansing of your personal space. While this is most often the bedroom, if there is a room or private location in which you truly feel both grounded in, by all means, feel free to do this exercise there. This is a way to release the negative energies that have lodged themselves in the very atmosphere and fiber of the space (or spaces) reinforcing the sadness within your being.
The best method for cleansing is to use what is known as a “smudge pot” which Native Americans have used for spiritual cleansing since the dawn of time. Sage can be purchased either in pre-made bundles, in stick form, or loose. The herb is then burned and the smoke can then be spread around the area you are seeking to purify and reclaim from the negative feelings harbored within.
There is no one correct way to perform this. Do it in any fashion that feels right to you. The key is to form your intent beforehand by visualizing the pain, hurt and sadness as a layer of dust or grime that you need to brush off of your world. By intending this action, those dark feelings can be loosened and cast out of your space and, by extension your heart as well.
Other methods using the same focused intent are the use of incense (similar to the sage pot) or scented candles. With candles, you are envisioning a light that can chase the darkness of the negative energy that has wrapped itself around you. Again, there is no one way to perform this. Let your own spirit and essence dictate the way. Still your thoughts and heart and allow yourself to release the chains of negative emotion that bind you.
Once the cleansing has been performed, there is a second step that can now facilitate the healing. This involves the use of Chamomile tea which can be purchased at grocery stores, health food stores and even some drug stores. Chamomile has used as a curative and restorative source since the ancient Egyptian times. In addition to its calming properties which promote relaxation, Chamomile tea also has anti-inflammatory properties that work on both the internal and external body. After enduring a broken heart, the entire system can, truthfully said to be “inflamed” as, as such needing to have that spiritual burning reduced and removed.
Again, go to your personal spot having prepared the tea before hand. Take some honey (raw is best, but any honey can be used) and flavor the tea with it. This combination-honey and chamomile, fuses to become a kind of ointment or balm that can be applied to the “hurt”. As you drink this preparation, open yourself to the calming effects of the tea and the sweetness of the honey. These two elements symbolize the start of the emotional healing that you seek.
What I have set forth here is intended to provide an approach to climbing from the sadness which you face towards a middle ground where you can move forward from this point. This is not an absolute solution; time and your own will are also important elements to heal the wounded heart. At the very least, though, it provides a starting point and a reminder that, yes healing the hurt is possible in love and relationships.
You may also want to connect with a psychic advisor for a reading session to discuss the situation and to obtain some additional clarity on where things stand and how your efforts to move forward can be continued. Ultimately, though, it is your own desire to be whole that will determine the outcome for you in love and relationships so that you can and will finally meet your true soul mate.
