It actually is a thing. How to go from head thinking to heart being. You need logic to follow say traffic rules etc. And when you land in your heart, from your truth and desire your life just flows.
Danielle Jokonen talks about how to get out of your head and land into your heart. The biggest thing that can help you with that is calming down your nervous system. Landing in your heart, leading from a coherent heart. Questions on this, let me know.
Hello, Danielle Jokonen here, yoga teacher, yoga, yoga creator, talking about how to get out of your head and land into your heart. Now, I have said that a ton in teaching yoga class. Get out of your head, get out of your head. Get out of your head. You may hear that a lot, like, stop thinking. Like, oh, there's even a coffee mug I had. Give me a second. I'm gonna just go and sit and overthink this for a little, little bit. And there's that famous quote, says, the thought that got you into that situation, that same thought is not going to get you out of that situation that you're in.
It could be a conflict, it could be a place where you feel stuck. So how do we get out of our head and into our heart? Right? It does take something, and it's really having a coherent heart, having a coherent mind, working together, we can get so stuck in logic and thinking in the logic brain versus actually trusting and tuning into your own intuition, listening to your heart, that can be very difficult. So sometimes it almost feels actually impossible. And the biggest thing that can help you with that is calming down your nervous system.
Your nervous system could be on fight, fight or freeze. Could be just this automatic happening, looking for the worst case scenario to happen. It's going to be very hard for you to land in your heart and hear your intuition and trust that and actually then act upon a coherent heart. So I take something to calm the nervous system, land in. Parasympathetic nervous system versus sympathetic. Sympathetic is just going, going, going, going. The parasympathetic system will help you calm down, actually sleep at night, rest actually.
You have better digestive functioning as well. So how to get from your head into your heart? Lately I've been doing a meditation of visualizing a light above your head and just imagining that light flow past your face, neck, into your heart, and just bringing attention down from your head, thinking down into your heart. And at first it may feel like this is doing nothing, and sometimes it may, yes, it will actually probably feel like that, and this is doing nothing. And then after a while, you can feel the energy shift.
It's really tuning into your physicalness of your body, like feeling your own body, which sometimes we don't even know, like, where's our body in space. So first off, get present to the physical now moment, get access to your heartbeat, and then you can tune into your heart, your heart, the present moment. A lot of times we're in the past or the future. So first off, to land in your heart, calm down, the nervous system, get into the present and feel the energy shift from mind thinking into heart resonance, like heart coherence.
Then you will get downloads, you'll get insights, you'll get your intuition to know what to do next. So yeah, there is something about getting out of our heads and landing in our hearts. It's actually a thing. It's not just a fun thing to say. It actually can happen and take time to just sometimes consider or just declare, I want to lead from my heart versus my head, or I just want to lead with my heart. Start there sometimes putting a declaration out so it'll happen. Once you put the intention, you'll find more actions to let it happen.
Landing in your heart, leading from a coherent heart. From your intuition. Questions on this, let me know. Have a blessed rest of your day. My name is Danielle.
