Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveIntroductionThere are many ways to explore love. In thisbook, it’s important to state that love looks, feels, tastesand sounds very different to each one of us. You knowthat, right?This book is for those who understand, and want, love,but don’t know how to put it into practice. We mayhave felt and shared love, but for some reason thathasn’t been enough. Many people want more love,others want new love. Some want to know what love isand others just need love. (This is starting to sound likethe very ideas that made every 80’s love song!)Over the years, I have supported thousands of peoplein exploring these questions. Mostly, they ask the bigquestion, “How do I find love?” I smile and say, “The realquestion is not ’how to’, but rather, ’what is in the way’?”12

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThe block to what they want is not another person,past emotions or failed strategies. These lead andcontribute to the issues; yet the core issue is us. It’s notoutside of us. If you can accept responsibility for yourlife and how you explore love, the victim state can bereleased. This is one of the most empowering thingsyou can do.Many people just don’t know, or for that matter, like,themselves. You may have had years of lookingoutside to fulfill love’s needs, which has created a sortof co-dependent behavior. It’s how we were raised;and now the time has come to re-evaluate and see whatreally works for you, and what doesn’t.This is a 28 day experience; an opportunity to open up,know and love YOU better. This allows others toreceive you in healthy and expansive ways.Why 28 days? Well, it’s 4 weeks, one trip around themoon. Within those 4 weeks, this will create trust,knowledge and understanding of how you tick. Youwill see your passion and your roadblocks. By13

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Loveknowing your design better, it offers a deeper masteryof how you experience love. You will uncover old stuff,discover new stuff and reclaim energy and emotionsthat may be the very thing that keeps your love fromburning the way you want it to. Be gentle, open andavailable. This is not a test. This is about learning HOWTO LOVE YOU,which will give you a fantasticfoundation in sharing love with everyone around you.I have used these exercises to create a torrid love affairwith me. It’s been a rocky road at times, but I’m stillcommitted. I keep finding new ways to know myself. Ithas offered me safety and security to open up my heartand love others without limitations. And this is themost liberating gift.Let’s talk about love 14

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThe Love Story"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entireuniverse, deserve your love and affection."BuddhaSo many seek the comfort of things related toromance, to create models and strategies for what love“should” look like. Many desire a romantic love affairas learned from movies, fairytales and music. Even ifthey have never experienced nor witnessed anyonewho has ever even had a romantic affair over the ages,they still search for it; dreaming of a later day wheretrue love penetrates the soul and ends happily everafter, the goal being – to find that one to fit the bill. So,they continue to seek and look for this Holy Grail. It’sthis idea of the grand adventure and the things dreamsare made of; the “perfect love”!However, how many seek love with the one personthat will be with them for the rest of their lives? Howmany are aware of the importance of such a15

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Loverelationship? How many get that that relationship isright here (at the right place), and right now (at theright time)? Yes, every person reading this is already inthe most important love affair one could ever know.It’s within you.You are in the most important relationship you couldever be in. How are you doing? How does it feel that Ijust put it out there? It kind of messes with the powerof fairytale story lines, poems, Valentine’s Day ideasand romance movies, doesn’t it? All of that Disney-likeromance, that leads to two people sharing life togetherforever as the grand finale of a successful measure ofthe heart I mean if you grew up in the west, thissociety has not let you really know much more. Someof you may have been shielded, others disheartenedand then some even end up rebelling against the wholething.The issue is that there are years of foundational beliefsthat are at the very root of how we relate to loving.16

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveAre you ready to rethink this model that has beenforcefully fed into you?Are you ready to start loving yourself first?So many people say to me, “Ah, Shawn, that’s great andall, but I want someone to wake up with, to eat with! I’vebeen with myself already!”Many people don’t like the company or relationshipwith themselves. And if you are bored with yourself,why would anyone else want to be with you? If youdon’t completely love yourself, who would really loveyou? Would you want that? Maybe you have had it,and you know what I am talking about. This is aboutloving you the way you might love your soul mate.You hold in your hand a series of practices that willtake you to a new level of how you approach each day,how to open your heart and how to deeply know themost amazing person in your life—you!This book has a system designed to offer you 28 daysof practices and techniques to expand your love and17

The daily practices are designed to create: De-armoring Better knowing of your body Great connection to your heart Self-knowing Stress reduction Well being Playfulness Sex appeal Healthy selfishness Peaked awareness Heart-centered courageThe great news is that you are already in the mostwonderful relationship that you can’t get out of! Youcan deny it. You can fight it. You can even hate it. Buteven so, dear friends, I am here to share that you reallyalready are in the right relationship; right here andright now! The choice is yours.18

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveLearn yourself, and let your self-love become soabundant that you begin to attract amazing people toshare that love with you. We have heard it before,“When you're not looking for love, love finds you.” Thereason is because one who actively is in love withthemselves becomes an amazing magnet to others.This book will help you regain joy in loving yourself 19

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveHow This Book WorksThereare 28 days of practices in finding abetter relationship with you in this book. These are allfor you. There are no rules as to how you shouldapproach the order of each practice. I have somesuggestions on how you can use this book, however, ifyou like something, do it again. Let it be an add-on toyour new day’s practice. I strongly feel that it’spowerful to keep doing new things in the cycle, but ifyou do get results that you consider good, keep usingit.Your intention is not just to do the day’s exercises, butrather, really finding the juice of these gems and howmuch they break the day-to-day pattern you may havecreated for yourself. The more you break the cycle, themore you create choice to enjoy change. There are nogoals to reach, but rather a deep awareness andexploration of the love affair you have with yourself.20

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveLook, you are the one who is taking this path to selflove. There’s more to it than just doing a few of the 28days and saying, “I have self love!” That’s great!However, there is a larger thing going on here Ittakes years of patterns to create the way we live. Thisprogram is designed to break patterns and habits soyou can change your life without creating new habits.So the practices are consciously in order to increasefour main points: awareness, communication, an openheart and acceptance towards self. ‘Pathways to Love:28 Days to Self Love’ is the foundation to feeling andexpanding love in amazing ways, both inside and out.At the end of each practice, there are journal pages tokeep thoughts, doodles and awareness notes.Each of the following pages will have the shortpractice, instructions and a set of icons. Here is a quickdescription of the icons, and how to use them.The SunsTo help you stay organized, each practice will havethis:21

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveEach sun is a marker for a new day. You circle a sun tomark that you have done that practice once. There are5 suns so that you can continue to use the markingsystem if you choose to do another 28 day cycle.This is also helpful if you're sharing the book withanother person like a lover or roommate. If two of youare following the book at the same time, just use adifferent-colored pen.The HeartsTo help you rate the day’s practice there is a 1 to 5rating for each practice in the form of these hearts.There are two sets to help you if you want to continuea certain practice again later, retry something or if youare sharing the book. They look like this:22

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThis is a quick way to create valuable feedback foryour journey. If I was with you, I would ask you toshare how a particular practice was for you. Fromthere, we would know what we can work with, andwhat we need to work on. With this tool, you can dothe same. Use whole and half hearts to rate yourexperience.Glossary of practice symbolsThere are other symbols that give you quick referenceas to the activity and intention of the practice, and ifthere is a time consideration for it. You might find thatyou are fond of certain practice types. But remember,it’s the ones you don’t want to do that may offer youthe greatest lessons.Most practices are short and easy and don’t require alot of effort, yet there are others that you need todedicate more effort to.23

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveHow to Start a 28 DayJourney“What can we gain by sailing to the moon if we are not ableto cross the abyss that separates us from ourselves?”Thomas MertonThere are three simple ways to do this; each startsthe night before so you can ready yourself for the nextday’s practice:1. The General MethodDo them in order. It’s simple and structured.Just turn the pages each day.2. The Adventure MethodThe night before you start, sit with the book,tune in and feel what’s going on in your life.Now, open the book at random.If you picked a new practice in your 28 day26

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Lovecycle, great! This is your next practice, have ago at it.If you picked a practice that you’ve alreadycompleted, then:a. If you opened and picked a left page,thumb back to the next undone practice.b. If you opened and picked a right page,thumb forward to the next undonepractice.3. The Freestyle MethodFind your own way through the next 28 days.You choose your own path of how you exercisethe 28 practices. This is a more advancedrecommendation.If you have completed the journey once ortwice, this a great way to expand into theexperience with greater awareness.Use the method that works best for you.27

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveIt’s Your ExperienceThis is your chance to soften the very thingthat may keep you from loving fully. We all have pastexperiences that warrant our hearts to be shielded. Thenext 28 days will melt your guarded heart. You will seethat every relationship you have been in is a mirror.There are lessons to understand in EVERY relationship.The most challenging thing for me in doing this workis hearing that the lesson learned was to love morecautiously and be more careful of whom you trust andshare your heart with.Ever so often, this is not the lesson at all! Many timesthe lesson is to remember to love yourself first andyou will discover that being in a relationship does notneed to be crazy or foolish as it has been in the past.Explore these 28 daily tasks as a chance to court withyourself again.28

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThis is not about being alone It’s about rememberingto keep your love healthy in all aspects of life.Take your time, enjoy and write about what comes upfor you. Be willing to share it with others.This book is not about: Being alone Being single Hurting Blood, sweat and tears to get what you want Not having sexual relations Changing your faith Getting stuck Losing peopleThis book is about: Getting in touch with yourself Being aware Remembering to love Staying open to love29

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Love Playing Enjoying a graceful life Being true to your core feelings Dropping the to need to react Letting go Forgiving yourself and othersBefore you start, write your intention for the next 28days. Not a goal, but more about what flavor youwould like to experience with the program. Intent ismore than just what one has in mind to do or bringabout. Intent suggests clearer formulation or greaterdeliberateness. However, a Goal suggests somethingattained only by prolonged effort and hardship.Webster’s Dictionary offers this definition ofIntention 1 :1: a determination to act in a certain way; resolve2: import, significance3: a) what one intends to do or bring about b) the object for1www.merriam-webster.com30

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Lovewhich a prayer, mass, or pious act is offered4: a process or manner of healing of incised woundsBe clear and on point, remember to stay away from anagenda or goals of what the end looks or should looklike.Your past experiences may be keeping you from thecontemporary, fresh life you deserve to live. Releasewhat you think you want, and allow yourself toexpress what you feel could support you in enjoyingthe next 28 days.31

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Love1.10 minutesDay Complete:Rate your experience:Cut your cords from the past“The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mournfor the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles,but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.”BuddhaThereare ancient teachings supporting theidea that there are cords that connect people together.33

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThrough these cords, things like emotions, projections,fantasies, needs and wants are shared. It’s a processthat energetically links us together. This is a chance toclear your cords and free yourself from that whichmight be holding you back. Many times the reasonwhy we might get stuck in patterns is based on thisvery idea of cords and how we link with ourrelationships, thoughts and attachments. Here is yourchance to cut your cords and liberate yourself.This is an active meditation. Get comfortable and relax.See your heart open up and feel warm honey-likeenergy, start to rise up from your open heart. Let thatenergy fill your head as it starts to pour out the top ofyour head. Let that warm, honey like energy pourdown your body, on the outside, creating a 2nd layer ofskin. Just let the warm, thick, honey-like energy coatyour entire body from the top of your head to the soulsof your feet.Let this heart energy cut any cords or pastrelationships. Let your heart’s energy smooth out your34

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Lovebody. Be slow and enjoy this cocoon of heart energy for6-8 minutes. Feel your breath. Focus on your senses.You are releasing years of the past right now.Then relax, take a deep breath in, closing the top ofyour head where this heart-river is flowing from. Asyou exhale, feel the 2nd layer of fluid skin drop into theearth.Relax and enjoy a calm feeling for 2 to 4 more minutes.Each time you cut your cords in this way, you releasepatterns and renew relationships by creating newenergy exchange and letting go of old associations. Youalso cut free of any people, ideas or things that are nolonger needed in your life, thus reclaiming your energyand vision.It’s OK to cut all your cords. Some of you might bevery sensitive and attached to your connections. Youwill reconnect with the cords you need after themeditation. The awareness is to feel and notice the35

It seeks for asense of control and order to things. The problem isthat it also locks in certain emotions and patterns ofhow our day unfolds in a pattern, destroys the freedomof the heart to live in a wise, explorative way. Change38

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Loveyour day, and patterns melt; thus offer your heart thechance to expand and experience the day in a newway.Today you are going to shake things up a little, nomajor change is needed. Little adjustments create bigtransformation later, it just kind of sneaks up on you.The day to day patterns create a sense of comfort, butthe nature of self love is to explore yourself outside thehumdrum existence and embrace the true nature ofyou. Today is a new day. It’s fresh canvas.Look at what you normally do and the order in whichyou do it. Here is an example:1) Wake-up2) Bathroom3) Coffee4) Check email5) Watch news6) Eat7) Shower8) Dress39

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Love9) Off to workToday, do as little in that order as possible and remove2 things and replace it with something new.1) Wake up2) Bathroom and Shower3) Tea4) Dress5) Take a light walk6) Eat while out7) Call mom8) Off to workSee how fresh the day looks from the normal day today activities?We all have experiences of starting off the daydifferently and how it changes things. This will affecthow your whole day goes. Remember the assemblies inschool? How about the first day of a new School year?Field trips? Half days? These things broke the day-today cycles thus changing how we interact with the dayas an adventure.40

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveBe aware of how you feel and how you connect byshifting the normal pattern. Things may look new,people may relate to you differently, your locked-incycle for the day may shift. This is good to open yourheart and soul to an adventure.41

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveThis Practice is so easy, and if you are notaware, you could miss it. So peak your awarenesstoday as to what makes you smile. Enjoy slowingdown and move from reaction to conscious action.Lose the need to smile for the sake of it and reclaim aconnection to what really allows you to glow as yousmile. Notice how you feel. Watch how other people respond to you. How long does it last? Enjoy all that has made you smile.Authentic smiling creates deep heart opening, andagain, it’s just so easy!It’s non-verbal communication. You know this, andhave learned to use the smile to defuse situations, inconflict avoidance, emotional concealment, shyness, orembarrassment. This practice is amazing in havingSELF TRANSPARENCY.Only you really know what yoursmile means and how it feels. Again, it seems like a44

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Love4.Day Complete:Rate your experience:Enjoy a meal alone today“To be alone is to be different, to be different is to be alone.”Suzanne GordonThere is a large amount of energy that can’tflow until you learn to enjoy yourself, until youcome back into that space of a healthy alonenessbeyond all the social conditioning. This is where47

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Loveyou are fine if you’re with someone, or if you areby yourself. This is a hard place for some. Startwith small, easy steps. This will lead to liberation; achange in how it feels to spend time with you. Thisfreedom is your birthright.So much is said about humans as social beings. Iagree. However, many of us have given the outsideworld too much responsibility to measure us onwhom we are. In research for this book, I cameacross dozens of studies linking aloneness todepression. I can’t remember one example whilegrowing up, where I was taught aloneness is ahealthy act. So I grew up seeking people to meetthat need, to fill a relationship emptiness anemptiness that no one else can fill!I never understood being alone as a healthy thing;In fact, I felt guilty being alone at times. Beingalone is not the core issue of depression, as manymay feel. Its acceptance that so many are seeking.So, finding out who you are and healthy ways to48

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Lovelive that way affords you an opportunity to returnto your true nature. This can release stuckdepression and opens the heart to receive the giftsof self knowing without projections.When you find times that you like spending timewith yourself, it’s amazingly graceful to share thiswith others. As with all relationships, we arelearning to like and accept ourselves, which leadsto love. That love becomes a magnet for others,because you are living from self love.Take yourself out for a meal alone, by choice. Beingalone is important. Eating alone can be a veryintrospective time for you. Turn off the phone.Maybe bring a journal or pad to write on or a book.Enjoy your company. It’s a gift to make time foryou. Be aware of your feeling or any old patternsof self judgment.Look for the celebration of this meal. Feel thefreedom that you had the choice of what, where49

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self Loveand when to eat this meal. It's all about you, take itin and witness how it feels.Bon Appetite!Afterwards, write a journal about these things: 3 things (if any) that challenged you. 3 things you enjoyed. Did you learn something new aboutyourself?50

Pathways to Love: 28 Days to Self LoveOne of the main barriers to an open heart isholding on to memories that hurt us or keep peoplefrom being seen in positive ways.
