From the author: All you need is love... Do you feel the abundance of life or do you stumble upon continuous restrictions on your happiness? All emotional disorders have a common basis - this is the experience of distorted love. Distortions can take different forms; this is when the “lover”, for some reason, has replaced his love with fear, guilt, addiction, etc. Psychological health is a state that appears as a result of the natural flow of love coming from us and to us. When we realize our love and they love us. Psychological difficulties in life appear because we know nothing about the truth of this feeling, since in childhood our need for love was frustrated, that is, at a time when it was vitally necessary, we did not receive it. As a result, we became fixated on the search for love and are now too preoccupied with it throughout our lives. All problems of a neurotic personality are born from a thirst for love, which distorts our impulses and energy, takes away all our attention and strength. Because of this obsession, people strive for super-efficiency and success, they need to reach the “peaks”, just to receive the favor of society in return. They spend all their energy on the game “Have pity on me, my life has not worked out” in order to beg the favor of their counterparts. They can seduce, charm and then deceive, convincing themselves that they are worth something. Often they are chronically angry, resentful and vindictive for the lack of adoration from those around them. A lack of mature love leads to emotional suffering and a constant “hunger” of approval and recognition. Messages: “Give.” You owe me. Support me all my life” is an indicator of the lack of love within a person. At some point, everyone needs support and encouragement, but many of us live forever in a state of needy orphans. How to find healing from a neurotic thirst for love? Fortunately, you don’t have to have a second childhood to be filled with love. Already today you can become less “oral”, less absorbing and more giving, allowing the natural manifestation of being loving. By giving to others what they want, we find ourselves in a stream of abundance, thereby filling ourselves up. There are three types of love. Which one do you think is more developed and which is the least developed? Erotic love. This is a state of liberation, creativity, spontaneity, freedom to express one’s “I”. The ability to derive pleasure from everyday ordinary phenomena, joy from rain or a light touch from a partner. A person with developed erotic love has liveliness in his movements and in his gaze. The opposite will be dryness, structuredness, stereotyping, life within the framework of “right and wrong.” Empathy. Fine tuning to a partner, the ability to understand how the other feels and what he needs at the moment. Choosing cooperation instead of competition. Often manifests itself in maternal care, friendship, and romantic relationships. Spiritual love. The experience of pleasure and involvement in the manifestation of beauty. Love for the Universe, God, humanity. Understanding the higher meaning of life. How do you develop your ability to love? This can be done with the help of meditation, art. The state in which the “I” disappears, dissolves and the whole essence is filled with a wonderful feeling of bliss and love has power. The essence of psychotherapy is the treatment of a traumatized soul with a loving soul. A heart can only heal another heart, and not any material wealth, social achievements and other stereotypes of modern society.
