“Hugs are part of everyday life for me. I’ll hug all sorts of people- I don’t worry about it looking unmanly or whatever. I think physical human contact is one of the things that makes living worthwhile.”

~~~ AJ McLean

There is a topic that I think about so much these past few weeks, and that is how the energy of our thoughts and feelings can influence what we bring into our lives. The topic of today’s article may seem to be about something entirely different, but it’s still about the energy of our feelings, and what happens to us as a result of those feelings.

All you have to do is ask yourself how you feel when you’re hugging someone.

There is so much energy that happens when we are involved in an embrace. What’s interesting about hugs is that we all need them — we’ve needed them since the very beginning of our lives. We started out in the warm embrace of our mother’s womb and since we came into the world we have always sought that same physical contact.

Yes — it’s true — as we grow we feel much more independent — yet, when trouble strikes - or when something great happens in our lives — it’s not at all uncommon to want to be hugged — or want to hug someone.

The wonderful aspect of hugging is that it takes two to make it happen (unless it’s a “group hug”) and both people involved get to enjoy the pleasurable experience. When you wrap your arms around another person your energy and that person’s energy have a way of blending together. Even after you let the person go — the feelings you both experienced have a way of lingering for just a little longer. Such a beautiful example of the energy of feelings, isn’t it?

“A hug is the perfect gift; one size fits all, and nobody minds if you exchange it.”

When I was doing the research for this article I learned an interesting fact — and that is there is such a thing as a “heart hug”. I know that normally when I hug someone, I usually put my right arm arm around the person’s shoulder and my left arm around their waist. However, if you reverse that — put your left arm over their shoulder and your right arm around their waist — it aligns your heart with theirs. Accordingly, the energy of the feelings generated with a “heart hug” are more loving, comforting — and your souls will be filled with feelings of love, caring and compassion.

There was a news item a couple of months ago about a guy in New York who went to a busy area in Manhattan with a big sign that said, “Free Hugs”. When he first started out people would go out of their way to avoid him — you can imagine what they were thinking, right? Then one person saw it for something good and went up to him and hugged him. The next thing you know, more and more people got over their misgivings and took him up on his offer. They all discovered what they already knew — that a hug is a fantastic way to share your feelings with someone. They saw that a hug is good — that it’s a positive way to be with another.

Here’s a suggestion for you — the next time you have the opportunity to hug or be hugged — put all your loving energy into the embrace. Do a “heart hug”. Feel what’s happening. Think about your connection with the person — not only the physical connection of the hug — but also the spiritual connection that is being manifested by the mingling of your souls — the evidence that you are both a part of the oneness of the universe.

This last quote for today says it all ….

“A Hug Is Two Hearts Wrapped In Arms”

Dear Friends,

On January 23, 2007, I had the good fortune to be on a phone conversation with Neale Donald Walsch. What an inspiring interview this was with this best-selling author of the “Conversations With God” series of books. Maybe you’ve heard about him or his books. I’ll bet many of you have.

Neale Donald Walsch never wanted his life story to become a movie — but now it has — and it will be the featured film in the February 2007 DVD for the members of the Spiritual Cinema Circle, of which I am one. I encourage you to join me and become a member today so that you can have this wonderful film to keep and to share with your family and friends — CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD.

Neale Donald Walsch didn’t “ask” to write a book, let alone have a movie made about his life. He certainly had no intention of writing 22 books, or becoming the New York Times best-selling author of the “Conversations with God” series. Neale Donald Walsch was just a man down on his luck, out of answers, and in desperate need of help, who cried out to God.

And God answered.

In what became a series of late night “conversations,” God revealed himself to Neale in an utterly earth shattering way. Walsch posed an endless stream of questions about life’s mysteries and uncertainties, and just like that, God illuminated the answers, one by one, to all of Walsch’s desperate cries. Walsch filled dozens and dozens of legal pads recording these conversations, and their messages became the basis for an internationally acclaimed book series that has sold over 7 million copies and been translated into 34 languages, and now –— a major feature film — CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD.

CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD is an original production of The Spiritual Cinema Circle, a DVD club that delivers inspiring and uplifting films – features, shorts, and documentaries – directly to your door. The Circle finds fascinating films from festivals around the world…films that will open your heart, stir your soul, and expand your mind.

Now, members of The Circle are receiving CONVERSATIONS WITH GOD. as part of the February 2007 DVD which also includes three outstanding short films. For a limited time, new subscribers to The Circle can receive a free trial membership (you pay a minimal shipping fee) by visiting: http://www.spiritualcinemacircle.com/.

If there ever was a great time to do this, it’s today.

Shanti,

Ron
