Feeling Lonely : 13 Ways to Stop Feeling So Lonely and Isolated

Heart
The heart is the doorway to the soul . When we are in tune with our hearts , we are connected with the wise , visceral , and instinctual energy of intuition . Our hearts are what connect us with others , help us walk the most authentic paths , show love , forgiveness , and compassion , and reveal what is invisible to the eye . In essence , our hearts expand us . But our hearts can also become contracted through life circumstances . Pain , trauma , heartbreak , and toxic core beliefs all cause the heart to become closed or shut off from life . So here lets get in touch with , and heal the heart .
