Heart Whisper Gratitude Challenge Day 27: Giving and Receiving

I open my arms wide, my heart smiles as I happily receive and accept the help and love that I deserve.

Welcome to Day 27 of The Heart Whisper Gratitude Challenge

(If you’re only just catching up with us today go here first to find out what you need to do to get ready or just start at the day you have arrived at. The previous days are listed at the bottom of each post in PINK)

Today’s Card:

“Allow others to give you loving care. Receive without guilt or apologies.”

 Today’s card is  “Let Yourself Receive” When I drew this card I knew that today’s post would change from what I had planned. I have a friend I know this card was for.  Maybe it touches your heart strings too? Sometimes when the universe stops us in our tracks, especially with health issues, as I found out, there are many lessons to be learned. One of the big ones is allowing yourself to receive help, followed by asking for help. It is something I know that graciously receiving and asking for help is still a learning process for me. 🙂 It is not easy  to receive or ask help when you always put others cares before your own and letting others down becomes more important than looking after your own needs.

“Gracious acceptance is an art – an art which most never bother to cultivate. We think that we have to learn how to give, but we forget about accepting things, which can be much harder than giving…. Accepting another person’s gift is allowing him to express his feelings for you.”  ― Alexander McCall Smith

When we receive we replenish ourselves and balance our energies. By allowing yourself to receive, you begin to go with the flow and this  washes away negative energy, limiting thoughts and brings in new form of abundance, creative ideas and new opportunities. Great reasons to open your arms wide to receive and allow the love to flow in. Your heart will whisper Thank YOU.

You might have noticed that the challenge posts are coming out later, I didn’t factor in the time each post was taking, so today i was going to make a video and then realised that it would be another hour or so and other things on my to do list would get relegated again, especially getting The Heart Whisper Oracle Cards completed. I decided to ask Dr Google to find me a video that would be perfect for today.  I went looking for one on receiving and was led to one on Asking for Help  from  Mastin Kipp at The Daily Love.  When we ask to help we do have to graciously receive, which keeps us in the flow of life.

“Asking is the beginning of receiving. Make sure you don’t go to the ocean with a teaspoon. At least take a bucket so the kids won’t laugh at you.”– Jim Rohn,

Today’s Activity: Ask For Help

Do you find it hard to ask for help? Are you good at giving? Watch the video and think about where you need to ask for help.

 Get out your journal as when you watch the video (3.00) How to ask for help and why it’s awesome,  note any feelings or reactions that come up for you when you are watching it. Then will you have the courage to go and ask for help. Yes I am heading to a group in facebook to ask for help in building the Heart Whisper Revolution and sharing my Heart Whisper Coaching. I can’t do it all alone. Please share in the comments where you need to ask for help.
