Courage is not the absence of fear, it is the feeling of this
fear being afraid and showing up anyway.
Hello and welcome back to the Tiny Pod.
This week I want to talk all about courage.
The word courage comes from the Latin core, meaning heart.
True courage is heart energy. It is rooted in love.
In Middle English, courage meant to speak one's mind by telling
one's whole heart honesty. Is courage.
Integrity to act from the heart. Is courage.
Our hearts are our primary organ, beating as early as 22
days in utero and the only organ required for life.
Our brain can die, but as long as the heart is still beating,
we still have life. Our heart is our source of life
and power. The electromagnetic field of the
heart is 5000 times greater than the brain and can be felt
several feet away. When you have heart coherence,
this electromagnetic energy expands and heals.
A doctor with heart coherence can alleviate the fears of a
patient just through his presence.
That is why the most powerful action we can take to change the
world is to change our hearts. Purify our hearts, heal our
hearts, open our hearts. It is this coherent heart energy
that ripples out and heals others.
The word encourage is about strengthening each other's
hearts, heartening each other's journey.
Love is power. Love is the true breastplate of
protection, not fear. People who love power forget the
power of love. They are concerned with what
they can get, what they can extract, how they can feed their
self, forgetting that giving is receiving.
When you give love, your heart expands.
Giving to others nourishes yourself.
It strengthens yourself. It expands your electromagnetic
energy. Healing your heart is
safeguarding your health. Cardiac arrest comes from heart
incoherence, blockages, dysregulation, dysfunction,
disease all comes from living out of alignment.
Hardened hearts, hearts of stone are built in shame, the opposite
of. Courage.
Isn't just fear, it is separation from the heart.
The word coward comes from the Latin cowder, meaning tail.
Literally someone whose fear causes them to turn their back,
tuck in their tail. Withdraw Hide.
A coward retreats from experience, from truth, from
relationship. A coward is afraid because they
are disconnected. From Courage.
From love and from their heart. Scientifically, they have no
heart, brain coherence, which is why they are senseless, mindless
and heartless. If the Ku Klux Klan or ICE
enforcement were. Courageous they.
Wouldn't hide their face. A thief breaking into your
house, hiding behind a mask, knows somewhere in his heart
that it is not right what he is doing.
You only hide if you're hiding from yourself, if you're hiding
from truth. Masks aren't just physical.
Masks are psychological. Hiding the face is a sign that a
person is hiding from themselves, from accountability,
from empathy. If someone is truly rooted,
regulated and present, they don't fear showing their face.
They don't fear connection. They don't fear the gaze of the
world. A regulated person walks in the
light. A regulated person looks you in
the eye. That is why bullies hide their
faces. And this relentless violence in
America, in Gaza, in Iran, globally is trying to get us to
be afraid. But that is how bullies win.
We are not afraid. We are.
Courageous. It takes courage to stand up to
injustice throughout history. It took courage, the.
Abolitionists, the suffragettes, the civil rights movement all
overpowered fear because love was stronger.
It takes. Courage.
To step in between violence and vulnerability.
To stand in front of violent officers to protect women, as
Alex Pretty did. It takes.
Courage to go and bear witness to ice protests, as Renee Good
did. Courage is.
Presence with a full heart despite.
Risk courage. Is not the absence of fear.
Courage is. Feeling the fear and standing up
anyway. Cowardice hides masked,
reactive, disconnected from their own heart and the heart of
humanity. Violence is a lack of
self-control, a lack of regulation.
It is reactive. It is weak and a failure of
courage and accountability. The lack of integrity,
accountability and honesty in global leadership and law
enforcement is built in cowardice, in fear.
Every time an agent puts a mask on, he's revealing his
dysregulated nervous system, his disconnection from his heart,
his fear, his lack. Of courage.
And when Trump speaks about immigrants or felons, as a felon
himself, he is trying to create, fear and destroy.
Our courage. He forgets about the power of
love to overcome. Courage.
Is a wholehearted approach to life forgiveness.
Is courage. Love is the revolution.
The empty seek more because nothing ever fills them.
More money, more power, because they've never felt the wealth of
peace and the wealth of love. Courage.
Is presence with fear. Courage.
Is clarity in the darkness. Courage is.
Facing what is unjust and choosing connection over
control. Courage changes the world
because it opens doors that fear tries to close.
We are stronger together. When we heal our own hearts, we
expand. Our courage.
And with. Courage.
Anything is possible. I'll see you next week.
