'Applying Love' is a method of solving problems that works on any problem you have, no matter what it is, and causes the situation to resolve ITSELF, without any further effort on your part! It works by reversing the mental and emotional polarity of your 'instinctive' (fear-based) energy response to problems. It's only our fearful attitude that perceives any situation a problem, anyway. (More on the definition of problems.)

From my experiences of Applying Love, I believe there are only two worlds in which we can choose to live - these are
1. The world of Love and Unity, or
2. The world of Fear and Separation.
Although we may move from one to the other constantly, at any given point OF ACTION (which is any thought or emotion) we either choose one or the other. (There is a resting or neutral zone, in which we're not experiencing any emotion; this state of calm and relaxation is like a 'waiting room' - see below.) The world of Love is Reality, and the world of Fear is Illusion. Although Fear feels strong and real, it's like the stone in that game, 'scissors, stone, paper' - Love is paper - it wraps the stone! (In this game of life, there are no scissors!)

Core Beliefs
Repeated problems in our lives which follow a pattern eventually bring our attention to the presence of a core belief that's resonating within the energy field of Fear. These patterns are the result of the Law of Emotional Resonance at work - the energetic response to emotions which cause situations that trigger those same emotions. Repeating negative patterns started the moment we experienced our first moment of Separation from Love - the first moment of deep shock, where we were offered an explanation for the apparent 'lack of love' we experienced. In the moment we accepted the explanaion, our allegience to our egos was established, and our minds took over control of our lives.

It happens when we're small children, innocent and confident in being loved; still happy in the Reality of Love. The incident which causes this first belief in 'lack of love', can be relatively minor - being ignored, or told off for something you haven't done, or refused affection; whatever it is, though, triggers our fledgling ego-mind's attention; there's a pregnant pause, which our egos latch onto; something isn't right! In trying to identify 'what's not right?', our reasoning mind comes up with an explanation. It's that gap, where we're not connected to our hearts, that starts the whole process of separation, fear and suffering that continues until we start to examine ourselves once more, and make a conscious choice to re-establish our connection to our hearts.

I think the interesting thing here is that the only reason we get this feeling that 'something's not right' - the one feeling that's set us all on our life's search for the answer! - is because we're starting to see the world through our reasoning, left-brain; it's the price we pay for having choice, and being able to discriminate - the biblical story of Adam and Eve, eating of the tree of knowledge and being thrown out of Eden, springs to mind here. The reasoning mind can't do its job for us if we're constantly responding spontaneously, following only our feelings. The experience of being conscious - of observing rather than being absorbed in what we're doing - brings with it the space for doubt, fear and all the negative experiences that follow from this energetic state.We pay the price by feeling alone, cut off from our centre, when we first follow the reaoning of our minds and invest our emotional energy in the 'lack of love' theory.

mind, and not responding spontaneously from our hearts - it's a natural process of developing a reasoning mind! This is our first experience of the mental state of consciously 'not knowing'. Instead of withstanding that and carrying on as normal, our mind rushes in to help 'solve' the problem of 'not knowing' for us - by giving us an explanation. If it comes us with something like 'there's not enough/any love for you here' - which is pretty devastating! - and we accept that explanation and the emotion of fear that goes with it - we've set up a shock-wave which will trigger more situations in which we can feel that same emotion. Because it's our egos that are seeing the world, and giving us a commentary on what's happening, whatever explanations it comes up with are all taken from the world of Fear. The ego's job is to separate our consciousness from everyone else - to give us the chance of individuality. Our egos don't know about Love! They can't - ego dissolves when immersed in the vibration of Love, because Love is Unity - Everything. Egos only know the world of Fear, because they created it! Without an ego, there is no fear.

If we decide to believe this explanation about 'no love', this one moment becomes a life-changing experience. We suffer shock and trauma, and a deep emotional response of betrayal and hurt which causes us to totally separate ourselves from our world (our family) for the first time. It's important to see it' the act of believing the explanation that causes the trauma, not the incident, or the explanation! We allowed ourselves to 'buy' this devastating explanation. Even though we were very young, still we were consciously making that choice - to believe in Fear, and not Love. That process has been ongoing ever since, and every time we've been presented with an opportunity to believe in fear and not love, we've added to the ripples of separation and fear. Yet every time we have a choice to make it right, # and choose to believe in Love instead! It's just that it gets harder to resist the automatic triggering of the fear, hurt and betrayal circuits, as a result of the entrainment we've experienced. Entrainment is the psychologists' term for the process of forming habits . It's my belief that we are all running a psychological experiment - our lives are our laboratory, and we, the consciousness which observes, are completely in control at all times! If we don't like the way it's going - if the beliefs we're proving aren't enjoyable - we always have the chance to start another experiment. I'm involved in the experiment to prove that Love is All - that Love is what makes sense of all my own experiences so far. I can't really see the point in any other experiment, since Love is what I want and need to feel!

The point we need to understand is it's our own BELIEF in our minds' explanations for whatever's happening that causes the trauma. What turns an idea into a belief? Emotion. In order to remove the power from a belief, we need to choose the opposite emotion when confronted with another opportunity to run the current emotion. This is the process which Applying Love deals with - it is how we remove the emotional power from a long-held and deeply rooted core belief. Applying Love - the deliberate choice of Love in place of Fear - restores us to our former state of innocence, joy and happiness. It restores to us our full power - plugs the holes from which we leak energy every day!

From the perspective of Love as the true Reality, our problems are manifestations in the external world of a point in our world-view where we have decided there's no love. They are helpful alerts to bring our attention to a self-administered emotional energy block. All emotional energy blocks are concerned with our beliefs about the Reality of Love. By Applying Love at that moment of fear, anger, resentment etc. you're injecting that emotional blockage (the belief 'there's not enough Love for me here') with the solution - Love itself! This is the major secret to taking back control of your life, and restoring yourself to the way you want to be. This is how we can reclaim our lost innocence and, in just one step, move from Illusion to Reality.

The Waiting Room!
Freedom of choice can't exist unless there is a neutral area from which to choose. Imagine there's a room with two doors - when we're feeling calm, we are in that waiting room. That's why keeping calm is the first step to changing anything. Until we're calm, we're not back to the neutral area from which to make our new choice. This neutral area is provided so that we can make a decision about the reality of Love or Fear, in connection with a situation that exists in our imagination. When there's nothing left except Love - that's enlightenment! We've deliberately faced all our ego-mind's negative explanations for everything; seen all the 'rewards' for going through that door marked 'Fear' and rejected them; when we've consciously chosen Love so often that it's our habit, and fills all the 'neutral' times too, we've allowed the truth of Love back into every moment of our experience. That's the beginning of something different - a new level of interacting with Love that wipes the slate clean. Then we can choose another role altogether - from a point of complete power.
