What Love Wants From You
Love is a strange and mysterious thing, at some point it got you, it brought you together, and while it is mysterious and unknown we need to look through the eyes of love and discover what it wants for you. There’s something unique about you and your relationship, and the force of love that brought you together. So let’s explore, what is love trying to do?
Again, for this exercise, you will need to be a little meditative and let go of your everyday concerns and all the things that you have to do. This exercise is asking you to feel into your body, to feel into love. Because we need the information that is stored inside of you.
Note for single friends: This is a powerful exercise for you, again use that past relationship of present attraction to find out more about you, what love wants from YOU.
Exercise 3
What is it that love wants from you?
*Please read this exercise or go straight to the audio with a pen and paper ready.
If you had a question for love what would it be, what is it that you would want to know?
Example: What is our relationship really about?
Make a note.
Go a little blurry, let go of your everyday concerns, just for a moment, so you can gain access to another side of “you”.
Now go to a time when you felt the most in love, when love spiked and felt incredibly alive inside of you.
Example: You were away from each other for some time and you would feel the waves of love every time you’d meet.
Feel this inside of you, notice where you feel it, where in your body are you feeling it? Example: In your heart.
Now continue to let it grow, take your time, and let it build inside of you, let it take over until it fully encapsulates you until it goes as far as it can go. Let it get bigger and bigger until there is almost nothing left of the ordinary “you”.
Drop your everyday self, who you think you are, and allow yourself to completely become “love”. Notice how it feels when you are only love. Take some time in this state and allow yourself to just enjoy being love.
Now as love, notice what is it that you want to share. As love, what is it that you want to do?
Example: I am love and I have to share this with the world.
Stay in this place where you are completely “love” and look back at you and your partner, spend a moment just looking at them, observing them, and showering them with love.
Then, as love, notice what it is that you want to do to them, what is it you want them to understand, what are you trying to show them, what is it you want to say to them, what is it that they need to do? Speak to them, share your wisdom from the point of view of love, let them know what it is that they need to do.
Example: Your love might say, I brought you together because I want you to create more love together, I want you to share it with your family, with your friends, and the world, I want you to bring love to all that you do.
Make a note.
Take a few moments to take love’s wisdom in, feel what it wants you to do.
Come back to your everyday self, but with the wisdom of love. If this was a love story about you two what would it be about, what would this story be trying to say?
Make a note.
Add this to your love story from the exercise above, what do you add from the perspective of love? What was love always trying to do, what was love always trying to say, what does love want from you? Keep evolving your story.
