Jewel s: Wow. It's such a blessing that you're in this magazine today because I think this is what people
are looking for right now. They need to understand that there is a place that they can go and to not only
help their own emotions but to send out this love that's going to change the world. That's what we need
to be doing right now.
Howard: Yeah. It's a period of heightened creativity which relates to the Law of Attraction. We can create
changes in our own lives more so than ever before. Then as by working together, we can facilitate
positive changes in the world. A lot of people are into this approach now. This is a global movement and
it's happening everywhere I go. At HeartMath, we call it the "Add Heart Movement"
A key contributor and essential learning in any of this work is underrating that we can choose our
emotions and how we feel. We often think we are just victims of emotions and they are only reactions to
what happens externally in their life. It is true that every perception produces a feeling. So in that sense
they are reactions. What gets missed is that we can learn to feel like we want to feel, when we want to
feel that way. For example, we can learn to generate, more feelings of appreciation rather than just
waiting for life to do something that we can obviously appreciate. We can put out more care on a
consistent basis rather than just when we see the baby in the mall in the stroller that opens our heart. We
can do that more consistently as we live our lives.
Another way to look at it is, yes, we can have emotional reactions and we're going to have them. Here's
where the choice comes in: we choose what we do next. Somebody sends us an email and it really makes
us upset. Well, we have a choice right there. OK...I'm mad and I'm upset. What are you going to do next?
Well, you can decide and I'm going to go out and tell somebody else about it and ramp up the emotions.
Or decide to write an e-mail back to them and let them have it. Or you could say, "wait a minute I'm going
to pause. I'm going to step back from this just a little bit. I'm going to make a choice right now to not add
more significance to this than I already have. I'm going to take it down a notch or two and I'm going to let
this thing settle down a little bit."
Those are emotional choices. The standard pattern is to amplify it... "They shouldn't have ever done that."
"Who are they to think they are?" Then, go see somebody else in your office as you can resonate with
and tell them," "You won't believe what I've just read." That type of reaction is standard stuff. I've done it
plenty. As we mature, as our awareness increases. One of the core creative abilities that we have is the
ability to start using our emotions in a way that creates the life we want. It takes some practice but we
can learn refine of our ability to choose emotions.
I have a belief that life works best for me when I'm
giving more to it than I'm taking from it. I also have a
belief that no act of love is ever wasted. It eventually
comes back, not necessarily in the moment, but it
does show up just at the right time.
I've seen that evidence of that in my own life. I don't
think I would have the wonderful gifts I have today if
I hadn't tried to be a more heart centric person that
puts out more of the qualities of the heart in my
interactions with life itself.
We all have that ability. That's part of the gift of
creation that we have.
Jewel s: Now, that is brilliant. And as you said...this is
the Law of Attraction because of what our emotions
affect in creating what we want. So, if we're sending out bad emotions, we're going get that back. There's
no ifs, ands or buts about it. But if we send out good heartfelt emotions, then it's going to make our lives
a lot easier to create our intentions. And it's going to lighten up the rest of the world.
Howard Yes, it's been talked about for thousands of years and by every religion that exists.
But like I said, basically we're at a place where we can recognize it more and it counts even more now
than ever. Again, the speed of change that's been happening in the world today is creating a new and
different world. It's like free energy. We can take advantage of that free energy. We can use it to create
