Hello, my name is Heidi, and welcome to my website!

The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed.
—Jiddu Krishnamurti

Healthy Body, Peaceful Mind, Open Heart

My practice: to defer to the heart. I’ve learned from wise teachers and from my own experience that the heart is the seat of wisdom, comfort, and joy. How can I support myself and others in trusting and experiencing that truth? That’s my inquiry—because when we return to the heart, it’s for the benefit of each and the benefit of all.

Antoine de Saint-Exupéry acknowledges in Le Petit Prince, “it is only with the heart that one can see rightly, what is essential is invisible to the eye.” If we avoid a deep connection to the heart for fear it will break, then we block the connection to the beauty and majesty of life. If your heart has been broken, and if you are afraid to love again, to trust again, to relax into love, then notice how this quotation feels to you, from Paulo Coelho.

“Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream.”

You may wonder, how do I get in touch with my heart center? How do I connect to it? There are sweet, gentle ways through yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices to experience tuning into the heart. Please enjoy browsing this website for ideas, classes, workshops, books, free audio downloads, and more.

I will continue to post supportive ways for you to connect again and again to your heart. Please continue to check this site. You can contact me at heidi@heidispear.com. I cannot respond to every e-mail I receive, though I do appreciate hearing from you.

Namaste, the light that resides in me, honors the light inside of you,
Heidi
