Letting Love Flow

Letting Love Flow

How do we let go of our excuses for withholding love, when we prefer to give ourselves to love and wisdom?

Letting go of excuses for withholding love starts with recognizing that love is our natural state, and anything that blocks it is a learned defense—often rooted in fear, past wounds, or unmet expectations. Here are some ways to release those barriers and fully align with love and wisdom:

Acknowledge the Excuses – Gently observe the reasons you hold back love. Are they based on fear of rejection, past betrayals, or a belief in unworthiness? Awareness is the first step to dissolving them.

For example, if you can answer this as mainly past betrayals, then you can honor them as they come up. Blessing the love and respecting the wisdom that you now possess. 

This will stop the momentum of the emotions related to betrayals and create the emotional stability of wisdom, resulting in a sense of peace and calm, which will create the ability for being present. 

Shift from Protection to Presence – Love is not something to be earned or traded; it flows freely when we are present. Instead of protecting yourself from potential pain, trust that love itself is the safest space to exist in.

You will be able to find peace in your wisdom. You will find yourself able to choose between the guardedness and the personal power of your Spirit. 

Choose Love Over Ego – Excuses often stem from pride, resentment, or the need to be “right.” Ask yourself: “What would love do in this moment?” and let that guide your actions.

Resentment is the strongest emotion you have to overcome. Not adding to the problem is compassion. However, not doing anything creates resentment. Regret is paved with resentment. Unfortunately you will be disappointed by yourself and the others by not knowing what to do.

Not knowing what to do is not an unpardonable thing. Both parties are powerless in this situation.

Embody the Love You Seek – Rather than waiting for love to be proven or returned, become a source of it. Give freely—not from lack, but from the abundance within you.

Don’t push yourself, just keep moving forward with as much love as you can let in. 

Heal Through Wisdom – Wisdom teaches that love is never truly lost, only withheld. When we see love as infinite and unconditional, we stop making excuses for limiting it.

Love is unconditional in the Spirit you are created by. I see it as pink light in my healing sessions. It’s always there. I have faith in the unconditional love and ever growing wisdom of Spirit.

Practice Letting Go – Each time you notice resistance to love, breathe deeply and release it. Imagine love dissolving every excuse, leaving only the truth of your open heart.

Imagine the white and gold energy pouring into you as you honor the love you are willing to be. 

Trust Love’s Power – Love doesn’t weaken us; it strengthens and expands us. The more we surrender to it, the more wisdom and freedom we gain.

Love is who you are. Excuses are just shadows on the surface. Let them go, and you’ll find that love was always waiting for you to return to it.

I see the excuses or shadows on the surface as black floaters or inky black stuff and sometimes an actual cage. It is easily removed. Healing it is in the process. Stay with the process.

 It’s incredibly hard to open your heart when past wounds still echo in your present. The fear of repeating painful patterns can make love feel risky, even when your soul longs to give and receive it freely. Moving beyond resistance isn’t about forcing yourself to be open—it’s about gently allowing love to flow in a way that feels safe, aligned, and nourishing.

 Moving Beyond Resistance

  1. Honor Your Pain Without Becoming It

Pain from the past doesn’t mean love itself is unsafe; it means that certain experiences or dynamics were not in alignment with the love you deserve. Acknowledge your wounds with compassion, but don’t let them define what’s possible for your heart moving forward.

  1. Understand Resistance as Protection

Resistance is not your enemy—it’s a part of you trying to keep you safe. Instead of fighting it, ask: What am I afraid will happen if I let love in? Once you understand the fear, you can gently reassure yourself that love, when chosen wisely, can be healing rather than harmful.

It is the healing process and we want that!!! Honor the journey and do what you can to help it along. 

  1. Distinguish Between Patterns and Love

Patterns repeat when we unconsciously respond in the same ways, but love itself is not the pattern. If you fear being hurt again, reflect on what choices, boundaries, or awareness can help shift your experience. Love does not require self-abandonment.

Don’t abandon yourself! The more you heal, the more you can heal. It’s pure wisdom and love creating momentum! The kind you want to see and enjoy! 

  1. Shift from Fear to Trust

It always comes back to trust. 

Love and wisdom walk together. When you trust yourself to recognize red flags and honor your needs, opening to love feels less like a risk and more like a natural expression of who you are. 

You are ensuring that you are not becoming what you’re afraid of experiencing. 

Trust yourself and trust the divine order to keep you poised and confident in your actions. It’s so inspiring and empowering to tap into the source of you. Your soul’s source is infinite. ♾️ 

  1. Let Love Start With You

Instead of seeking external validation, cultivate love within yourself. Treat yourself with the same kindness, patience, and understanding you would offer a dear friend. When self-love is strong, external love becomes a reflection rather than a necessity.

  1. Allow Love to Move in Small Ways

If opening your heart feels overwhelming, start with simple acts of love—toward nature, animals, creativity, or even strangers. Love flows more easily when we take the pressure off and let it move in ways that feel safe and organic.

  1. Embrace Love as a State of Being

Love is not something you have to “earn” or prove—it’s who you are. The more you align with your true essence, the more love naturally radiates through you, dissolving resistance without force.

You are not stuck. You are healing. And in that healing, love will find its way through—gently, steadily, and in ways that honor your heart’s wisdom.

And expanding upon letting love flow and moving beyond resistance:

If it’s  been really difficult to get past resistance, because you’ve  been hurt, and you don’t want to continue the pattern…

 It’s incredibly hard to open your heart when past wounds still echo in your present. The fear of repeating painful patterns can make love feel risky, even when your soul longs to give and receive it freely. Moving beyond resistance isn’t about forcing yourself to be open—it’s about gently allowing love to flow in a way that feels safe, aligned, and nourishing.
