mental health deteriorating because of being alone?

You’re never alone. An entire universe of love is surrounding you, and you are that love. You are overflowing with support in every second from all levels of reality.

yeah but why do I care if im not aware of it

@Viking You can have that experience right now if you for 5 minutes focused on your heart; the gentle rising and falling of the chest. You will notice you start to feel expanded, and quite sleepy as you enter a theta brain wave state; and you will feel connected as you always have been your whole life.

There is no other solution. As long as you are in ego consciousness, even if you are in a deep relationship, you will still feel disconnected from love. The solution has always been simple, so simple, to remain in the heart and entirely give up on your thoughts. That is the highest practice I have experienced.

I concentrated on the heart for 10 minutes, and I felt the energy there strongly, but that's it.

@Viking Wow. Bless you for giving it it a go! A year ago I didn’t know much about spirituality, I only knew about meditation, and watched Leo. I then couldn’t find the happiness I was looking for no matter what I did, and that’s when I found out about the heart. In the beginning I felt nothing other than a sadness there; but after a few weeks I felt love.

Best wishes.

yeah, same. so do it for a few mins after my daily 20 min meditation?

@Viking Yes, that is a good start  Eventually you want that focus to be all day long, even before falling asleep. As children our awareness is naturally in our hearts, but as we get older it slowly goes up towards the head region. We want to reverse that. This is the key to any genuine enlightenment, to remain heart centred as taught by Ramana Maharshi, and all throughout ancient scriptures and religious texts. For when we meditate in the breathe, our awareness will eventually withdraw to the heart if we are dedicated to this practice, so why not start at the heart in the first place?

Here is a greater explanation for you! https://channelhigherself.com/blog/types-of-higher-self-meditation-practices/

At the greatest level of reality all there is is pure love. This means spirituality is simple, all we must do is remain in love, trusting in the heart more than the thoughts that tell you that you need thoughts to live. You don't need thoughts to live, there is a deeper intelligence in your heart that knows much more than the limited human self that is located in the head region.

Hope this helps you
