Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, it’s essential that your path is met with self-love. For positive, healing changes to take place, I encourage you to start from a space that is abundant in self-worth. Not only will this mindset attract outside forces acting in love, but you’ll feel more confident in deciphering what type of love is right for you. Now, there are several different types of love, and while they’re separate in their own expression, they all relate back to your divine source of wisdom and spirituality. In this blog, I’ll touch on some of the common types of love and share 5 ways to invoke more love in your life.
When it comes to love, you may automatically think of romantic love or Eros. We place such high hopes on meeting our soulmate, but to pinpoint this energy, we must first direct our love inward. By understanding the love we desire, we can better attract this energy in others. Love can also be exchanged with friends, known as Philia. While this bond is vastly different than one that attracts a romantic interest, a true friend bond can stand the tests of strength and duration in ways unique only to a platonic companion.
Finally, and perhaps most importantly, is Agape, which can be described as an unconditional, divine love for humanity. The ancient Greeks described Agape as selfless, unconditional, and spiritual love – it’s the kind of love that Source offers to us. This love essentially includes the flow of energy as oneness, such as the love felt when committing a selfless act like volunteering your time.
The Heart Chakra is the center of your energy and resonates throughout your entire body – much like your physical heart. Love for yourself and others arises from this chakra, along with compassion and affection. When your Heart Chakra is balanced, love flows easily along with a sense of hope. There are several ways you can activate your Heart Chakra, including aromatherapy, crystal healing, and exercise.

5 Ways to Invoke More Love in Your Life
1. Love yourself first
The fact that you’re already underway on your spiritual journey is an excellent step in self-care. Meet your self-healing work with kindness above all else. This is the first step before eliminating negative energies and harnessing that which serves your own purpose. We take care of the things we love, and when you love yourself, you fill yourself up with love so you can share it with others. Your abundance of love carries over into everything you do. A willingness to learn and grow for yourself will undoubtedly navigate a path to higher understanding, and your body will certainly thank you.
2. Reflect with care
When reflecting on past relationships and energies you’ve experienced, it’s important to meet those memories with compassion. Accepting and releasing the past helps you open your heart to love now. Love can guide you to try new experiences, and even if you don’t stand by those decisions in the present moment, it’s healing to forgive and cut emotional cords that keep you stuck in old energy and patterns. For this process, I recommend working with pink tourmaline, a Heart Chakra crystal that heals the heart like no other and deepens your sense of trust in the universe. It promotes wellness, receptivity, grace, and unconditional love.
