Have you stopped to wonder how far Heart Touch goes and how many different ways in which Heart Touch can be shared with others? With ALL? I did this morning as I was in my bed, just floating in euphoria to the sound of cats around me purring in pleasure, my hand just automatically seeking warmth and fur and finding it. Just laying there, allowing my mind to drift, I realized just how darn important Heart Touch is, and how lacking it is in this world!
Our society has programmed us not to touch, for if we do it is “bad”. A friendly arm around the shoulders (now I said friendly, NOT grasping, suffocating, possessive) has become “Oh no, you can’t do that! That is sexual harassment!” A heated debate between two people ends up in a court, each saying the other has brought injury to his/her reputation, and “You just can’t do that!” A wink, a smile, a joke, all turn into “sexual harassment.” A teacher goes to touch a child in school, and the child says to the teacher, “You can’t touch me and if you do I will tell my Mommy!”
How incredibly sad!
Our world is void of hugs and kisses, especially so in the USA. Children are carted off to Day Care Centers a mere few months old, and the touch of Mommy is taken from them. To be without the touch and Love from a mother, is to deprive a child of his most basic needs. And what are the results? Take a good long hard look around you. This world’s propaganda that in order to succeed both parents must work and work hard, is seriously taking a toll, for children are growing up without the loving touch and guidance of their parents.
Isolation. Breaking down of families. Distance. Survival of the fittest. Each man out for himself. Bigger is better……..and once families are broken up, the strength of the society, the unity of the nation is lost. Is this not the very condition that is now so evident in this world? “Divided they fall”……And the ruling powers know this, and have done everything they can to feed people lies, how fame and money and career are all what life is about. And who suffers? The children. And when they grow up, without touch, without closeness, how can they possibly give these Gifts to their children? They do not. For the child to adult passes on only what has been taught to them.
Thank GOD for those of us who see the insanity and see beyond the lies and say NO! and re-member LOVE. And with that LOVE, they bring with them HOPE for this world. They also bring with them Heart Touch.
To touch another is a Great Gift. And it is not all about physical touch either. Oh no!
A HEART Touch comes in many forms and once aware of them, which I am doing here by sharing what I know, one becomes awake to the fact, that every day of our lives WE can make a difference. By understanding how important Heart Touch is, hopefully that will inflame the one with a passion to practice Heart Touch to do just that, no matter where, or no matter what circumstance.
Like I said, Heart Touch comes in many forms. Let me start with encouragement, either verbal or written. Do you know how many times a kind word to me, or an encouraging word to me, helped me put one weary foot in front of the other, and gave me an inner glow that someone cares enough to reach out to me with Love? Those words go a long ways, and in of themselves, gives me the incentive to again walk in Mercy, to again walk in Compassion, with people whose awakening has not occurred yet. The written/verbal word is very powerful, and when flavored with LOVE, the possibilities are endless, and it creates the ripple effect.
As do all other forms of Heart Touch.
One can Heart Touch through the eyes. In one glance, filled with Love and gentleness and JOY, a world of chains can be broken in that instant. I have seen one of my smiles or one of my “looks straight from my Heart” lift another up, when I see visibly that person having a challengingly day. That one look, or that one smile, lifts a burden, perhaps for just a moment or two, but hopefully, for all time. People are carrying such huge loads of responsibility and to know I have touched someone to help them once again feel JOY, even for that moment, in turn, makes me feel 10 feet tall. And my Heart soars in gladness to know I have helped someone smile on a day that they had thought a smile impossible.
Every time you touch someone with your hands, is it with LOVE? Gentleness? Kindness? Oh, yes, those things can be relayed through the hands, for there are millions of sensors on the skin that immediately send signals to the brain as to what those sensors are experiencing. I have seen with my own eyes, when I intend healing through my hands on one of my cats, that cat begins to quiver, feeling the sensations that are coming from my hands. As I release that cat again to the ground, I observe, and I watch the muscles twitch and let the tension go, that had just been evident, but now gone, all from my Loving Touch. And that makes me fly!
How about voice? Have you thought how to use Heart Touch with your voice? The voice is one of the most powerful aspects of us! When the voice is spoken with tones of love and gentleness, that is heard and recognized. Perhaps not on a conscious level with one who is still in fear, but never the less, it is heard and received, for no matter what is seen on the exterior, that person still is Light within. And that Light receives Love. I have seen again, with my own eyes, just my voice when speaking in a certain manner, softly, gently, dripping with adoration and Love, one of my cats who are in a tremendous amount of pain, release in front of my eyes. The look of gratitude I receive sends me flying to the sky!
How about “presence”? Have you given any thought as to how you FEEL to others around you? What does your body language say? Are you radiating Love, Happiness, JOY, and just BEing? I have experimented with this, deliberately intending to gently push out from me, the Love I hold in my Heart to ALL around me. I am not speaking of just people. I am speaking of all our Brothers and Sisters…..the Trees, the Flowers, the Clouds, and yes, the animals and winged ones. The results are sometimes so surrealistic that even as I am seeing with my own eyes what is before me, I feel like pinching myself! One day I observed a rabbit, a deer, and a Morning Dove, all peacefully together eating birdseed under one of our trees. Peace. Peace happened, that’s what, all because I INTEND Love to ALL around me.
I take care of deaf barn cat. When he first knew me, he was very skittish, for yes, this one too, had abuse issues. Over the two years he has come to know me, he is responding to Heart Touch by my Presence (I’ll get back to that in a moment), my words, and my hands. One day, my neighbor who was sitting in his barn, told me, that Echo, the deaf cat, KNEW I was coming because he got up from where he way laying and walked towards the barn entrance, there, waiting for me. I thought about this. And I have come to the conclusion that this deaf cat FEELS my Presence and is now so connected to my energy, he FEELS me from quite a distance. He also responds to the vibrations he FEELS when I speak to him, I know this.

I know too, that this cat FEELS the vibrations of my footstep. Because of his deafness, his “sensation” to vibrations is more acute then in a “hearing” cat. Have any of you thought that just by your walk and how you place your feet upon the ground/floor that this says a whole lot about you? Are you walking in Love (softly, gently, with intention, with controlled Power) or in fear (harshly, rapidly, heavy tread, angrily)?
Like I have said here, no matter the circumstance, there are a myriad of ways to use Heart Touch. My hope is that through my words, you come to realize there are more ways then just “touch” in relation to Heart Touch.
LOVE is truly the answer to ALL. 💞
In speaking to you here, I am hoping that my words make you think, to be AWARE of how many different ways Heart Touch can be employed. In a society, no, make the world, where “touch” has become suspicious and seen as a threat, there IS more then one way to reach out to another with Heart Touch. The more we together, with INTENTION, are aware of our speech, what our eyes are conveying, our facial expressions, our body language, how we touch another, the inflections in our voice, our Presence, our footstep……….the more LOVE will just naturally, effortlessly spread to this world again.
And the isolation and the “ideal of separatedness” will no longer BE. No. Instead, the Sacredness of Love will BE, and people will just begin in ernest, to tear down the walls of imprisonment that isolation brings.
As always, I LOVE you, I HONOR you, I BOW to you. I thank you for reading my words. It is my Intention with these words, that awareness of what Heart Touch is and how many different forms it can be utilized, bubbles to the surface of your consciousness……. For the Sole Purpose of the Healing of ALL as WE together bring Harmony, JOY, and Love, back into existence. Amen.

Great article Amy! I love the essence of this, heart touch! I think that’s what I do. I know I’ll look over at the dogs and just smile at them so they know they are relaxed and that is a good thing for them. In 2001, me in Canada and my loved one in Iran (services) I could feel him come to a computer and would sign on as he messaged. We could feel each other… amazing hear touching went on that way. I have no doubt that your cat does the same thing. Here in Costa Rica I try and be very aware of (what I will now call heart touch) when I make it into town. It’s the only way I know how to communicate!
You inspire me by writing… I keep stalling off starting writing on my own blog with the excuse that I don’t know what to say!

Ah, Honey, the biggest step is the first one. After that is out of the way, you will ask yourself why you waited so long. Not only that, you will be amazed by what comes pouring through you and your hand. I have every confidence in you. I, Amy, your sister, encourage you to take that first BIG step. SEE it in your mind as small, insignificant and then tell your fear to SCRAM!
I Love you. When I get to it! I plan on putting blogs I follow on my sidebar. I want to see yours there. 🙂
Sounds to me you are an expert on Heart Touch. YES!!

Makes me think of when my Grandma was still alive. Her husband had died when I was very young, and I knew she spent so much of her time completely alone. It occurred to me one day how long it must have been since she ha been touched. How achingly sad I was. I thought then of all the people out there alone. Particularly ones in “homes.” Sterile atmospheres (I know they’re not all pike that…) I wondered then if I should start a mobile “Loving Touch” program to address this issue. Rules and regulations, and of course other fears shut me down. If only…
So many things like this I never took action on. I had an idea for a “Touch” community outreach program while in college. I recently thought up “Second Helping” food redistribution (all the stuff that just gets thrown away because of legalities) program.
And I hear you Rose saying to me “Whats stopping you, luv? Create. BE it. Make it.”

Sister, what is stopping you from “practicing” technique on every day? One doesn’t need a business or a corporation or an anthing. Just BE Love in all you do……with your eyes, with your Presence, with your body language, with your hands and touch, with your voice, with your smile and laugh, with your walk……..
People are actually afraid of touch, AH. I had an experience of that yesterday which I will write about tomorrow. As I am restiing and falling asleep, I have about 4 separate events that I am all tying in together, for they all interrelate and overlap with each other. Between yesterday and today, and whatever unfolds tomorrow, I have been asking if I truly am loosing it. More on this tomorrow….
I am not using the fish hook technique to get you back here. I just wish to speak fully in one complete article about my experiences so that all my readers can easily find it under one heading instead of looking for clues in the comment section.
If Life gets any stranger, I don’t know……I just don’t know……
