Heart Awakening – Your Path to Unconditional Love and Healing
Amazing changes have happened in people’s lives as a result of their journey into their heart and soul through Heart Awakening. No matter what may be going on in your life, transformation into true spiritual light is possible. HEART AWAKENING was pioneered by Raoult Bertrand in 1987, and has since transformed the lives of thousands. If you are in urgent need of turning your life around, and you do not know which way to turn, a Heart Awakening session can find a solution that works for you. You can read many case histories of clients in Raoult’s inspiring new book: Heart Awakening – Your Path to Unconditional Love and Healing. These show that there is usually a hidden core issue underlying work, health, relationship and financial problems. Most often, this proves to be separation from the divine spark of love within. During a Heart Awakening session, clients reconnect with that divine spark by opening their hearts.
We think nothing of improving ourselves by getting our hair done, buying new clothes, getting a massage, or even changing our ideas, but what of our hearts? What of the divine love that should forever be felt as part of our daily life? How often have we looked into ourselves, saw something we disliked, and avoided dealing with it by denial or rationalization? Heart Awakening is a powerful spiritual healing process that can change your life forever by opening the doorway through which the soul is set free to fulfill its life purpose. How can you be in that space here and now? By your willingness to be in full integrity in every area of your life. No matter what the outer circumstances may be.
Heart Awakening shows the way to those who genuinely want to know the next step of their soul’s journey. It is for everyone learning to embrace and deepen his or her experience of the divine. It is an exploration in consciousness where we can reach any level for which we are ready, a way to participate in the earth’s current transformation. Within the expression of divine love is a divine plan for the restoration of peace on earth. This plan reveals itself everywhere we go, within everything we do and in everyone we meet. Heart Awakening is the process of becoming conscious of that plan and actively participating in its unfolding.
True living begins with an open heart. True living is having compassion for self and others, accepting others and ourselves just as we were created in our divine image, knowing nothing is more important than the love. Once we have experienced and accepted the eternalness of the deep, indwelling divine love, we can open the door to honest relationships with others and share the wisdom born of spiritual love with anyone anywhere at any time. This is what Heart Awakening is for – to remember what is important, what is real and what makes a difference. It is a wake-up call from the soul saying, “Remember the journey you have embarked upon, remember the deepest inner vows to yourself to be all that you can be. You don’t have to settle for anything less.”

THE POTENTIAL OF HEART
AWAKENING
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 175
The potential of what can be done in a Heart
Awakening session is limited only by the intensity of
the person’s desire to free the soul. The true Self can
never die, and a single session can bring you back into a
full experience of the Divine. This is why Heart
Awakening heals. It provides the opportunity to reinspire
yourself to become all you really are in the
Divine sense. The greater your desire to reunite with
your divinity, the more complete your Heart
Awakening will be.
Inner Guidance Through Your Heart
True inner guidance always comes through an
open heart. When you experience what it is to perceive
life through the energies of the heart, freed
from an ego that perceives only imperfection, all the
inner guidance that is an intrinsic part of our Divine
nature will appear.
Once the heart is freed and true inner guidance is
revealed, different situations and opportunities open
up. Often new connections, new ideas, new possibilities
come to mind, and life generally flows more easily.
In some cases it takes several months for all the
benefits of a session to reveal themselves in a person’s
life. During this time, a continuous and gentle readjustment
helps you align your life with your soul’s
journey. The first and most important step for anyone
on the spiritual path is to clear the issues around
the heart so true inner guidance can be discerned.
Rich flew in from Kansas for a Heart Awakening session,
apprehensive but ready. His life had turned chaotic. An
176
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 176
employee had embezzled money from his company the previous
year and he had lost his wife in a car accident. He was
angry, lonely, confused and had no idea where to go or what to
do with his life.
During his session, Rich remembered that as a youngster, he
had jettisoned what he valued the most: his capacity to speak
from the heart in a clear, honest manner. One day he became
angry with his mother and “on a whim” decided not to show
his love for her or any other woman ever again. The memory
explained why he was withdrawn and unable to release anger
or to love his wife during their marriage. He saw how he
hadn’t taken the time to enjoy his wife and many times went
to work when it wasn’t necessary. His wife was diagnosed
with cancer before the accident and, by seeing the situation
through the heart, he now understood why she hadn’t wanted
to stay on earth.
The session also revealed that Rich’s anger was the cumulative
effect of not having lived in his heart, making decisions
from fear. The decisions created outcomes he didn’t like and
the anger continued to build. His heart felt he wasn’t always
making the best choices, and the session showed him what he
had done to himself. In part, that was a gift for him so he
could learn to grow strong within himself.
Rich now realized he was responsible for much that had
gone on with his employee. He had a chance to stop the possibility
of embezzlement on a number of occasions but never did
anything about it. Instead, he suspected the employee’s integrity
and allowed his suspicions to color his attitude toward her.
Eventually, the situation became impossible for her and she
reacted by trying to hurt him through theft. Rich recognized
he actually felt guilty about having earned the money in the
first place, resulting in his fear attracting the loss of the
177
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 177
money. He saw all this through an open heart and was able
to forgive himself and his former employee. As a result, he
was given the confidence to continue his work.
The session was extremely powerful and released Rich’s fear
of being alone, poor, and unloved. He regained his sense of
self-worth by coming to grips with what his heart was telling
him to do with his life. His soul showed him how to perceive
his life differently so he could learn what he needed. Rich
finally accepted his heart would guide him not only to a joyous
life but also to a prosperous one.
For Rich, the session was pivotal. He cleared the reasons
that prevented him from hearing his inner guidance and
became acutely aware that he hadn’t listened to his true Self
for years. He listened to others, to his fears, and followed his
old patterns but never stopped to listen to the small voice within
whispering to him to ease up, relax, and enjoy life. The
inner voice was buried because his heart was troubled. After
the session, Rich felt considerably lighter and returned to
Kansas a stronger person, committed to listening to his heart
for inner guidance.
Recognizing Perfection
A primary purpose of a Heart Awakening session is
to help you experience your Divine Self, free of all pain
and suffering. From the perspective of spiritual healing,
we are already whole and healed. We don’t need
fixing; we are simply releasing what isn’t real to reveal
what is. Heart Awakening helps you experience your
own perfection, which is often enough for you to
change your self-image completely.
In a session, many people are awestruck when they
see themselves filled with light and their physical form
178
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 178
as an emanation of light. This experience helps them
recognize that, in their Divine essence, they are much
more than a decaying body with irresolvable baggage.
The eternal nature of who we are in our essence never
goes away.
Betty was overweight. When she came in for a Heart
Awakening session, she had learned to hate herself for being
so heavy. Nothing she did to lose weight ever worked and
she believed that she could never change. As a result, Betty
wished she were dead.
During Betty’s session, she experienced herself as whole,
healed and perfect. In her Spirit personality she was not
overweight at all. She didn’t just imagine herself as being
thin; she visually and energetically experienced herself in
her Divine essence and saw she had always been whole.
Indeed, her actual beauty and radiance stunned her.
After the session, Betty could never think of herself as the
person reflected in the mirror. She saw her true Self, her
true essence, as revealed by Spirit. Within a week, she had
lost 15 pounds without really trying. Just the memory of
the way she is in her perfection caused the change.
Realizing Your Source Of Creativity
Many people feel a connection with the Divine
through prayer, meditation, or even the joyous interaction
of a spontaneous social gathering where Spirit
guides the moment. These are all part of a Heart
Awakened life, yet what the sessions offer to both the
giver and the receiver is an opportunity to give language
to the Divine Grace underlying all creation.
Divine Grace is experienced as a non-dualistic state.
It is the process of making conscious the deep, inner
179
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 179
wellspring of our true essence and bringing it forth
into language. Each person has a way of expressing
this connection in a unique way.
Jeanette had been a professional writer for many years
and was currently writing a book for a particular spiritual
teacher. She knew he had something. She couldn’t quite
figure out what it was, but her task was to write about it.
Jeanette decided to have a Heart Awakening session to
help her understand the message of the spiritual teacher.
What she experienced surprised her. The session helped her
find her own inner Divinity when she felt the presence of
her guides and teachers. Visions of her own future were
revealed, including where her writing career was headed.
Once she discovered this place inside her, Jeanette knew it
was the source of her creative writing experience. The essence
of her heart contained the magical elixir to help her readers
awaken to their own beauty. She melted with joy and felt
the inevitability of her journey and its work. Most importantly,
she made the jump that aligned her with what she
was here to do on earth. There was no more doubting or
looking for it on the outside – she had found it.
Jeanette finished the book for the spiritual teacher and
moved into an exploration of her heart’s script for a better
life. Something in the grace and tenderness of the shift she
experienced during her Heart Awakening session touched her
forever. She made the connection, knew the purpose of her
life, and now her writing would be an expression of divinity
rather than an expression of the ego.
Expressing from Your Heart
On one level, everything we think, say, or do is a
part of the Divine energy field. Yet what happens
180
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 180
when we let go of thinking, live in the present
moment, and allow our creative expression to flow?
The massive force and strength of pure Divine
Love is overwhelming. Through Heart Awakening,
we gradually learn how to express from this energy
and feel its full effects flow through us.
When that happens, it is You speaking. Not the
ego you; but Spirit from within. It is you at a much
higher level of frequency. Heart Awakening is an
experience of the greater Divine Self taking over and
being a conduit for all that is. The ego is simply an
observer and a witness to the expression.
As you allow the language of the Divine to be
expressed through you, there may be a change in your
voice. Traces of the ego are dispelled, and your voice
carries a purity of tone and integrity free of judgment,
blame, and the accumulated vibrations of your
personality traits. It becomes solid and certain and
carries with every word a massive power of Love that
brings healing to any situation. It becomes rich and
pure because the language and the wisdom expressed
are of the higher Self and not the ego.
When Divine energy is expressed through language
for the purpose of helping another into the
heart, the Divine presence through Self can be experienced.
The intent of the communication must be in
keeping with what the Divine consciousness would
want, for only then does it flow. The Divine consciousness
asks us to love one another and be happy
and from this place all else flows.
We believe in Love, yet only a tiny fraction of its
potential has been expressed. Heart Awakening is an
181
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 181
opportunity to go further into the language of pure,
unconditional Love than ever possible in ordinary life.
The articulation of our Divine Self brings with it the
experience of heaven on earth when you surrender and
allow yourself to feel compassion for another human
being. Spirit works and supports such attempts in
unfathomable ways. Even the slightest effort extended
by the least knowing is supported by the infinite
power of Divine Love, Divine power, and Divine wisdom
when the intent is to help another into the heart.
All energies of a spiritual nature are perpetual and
forever uplifting. Those of a physical nature are
depleting and need constant replenishing. The doorway
into perpetual energy is the present moment, for
within it is contained all the information we need.
You might not know how you know – the knowledge
is simply there. These energies are available through
the principle of service. The Divine consciousness
needs form to grow, and Heart Awakening is a vehicle
for that growth.
Your Heart Awakening Adventure
When we grow tired of the material world, it may
be a sign that we are ready for a true adventure into
the depths of our own soul. This adventure is one of
the greatest gifts from a Heart Awakening session.
How far can I go? How deeply can I get into the
sacredness of all that is within me? Is it reachable?
What are the deep desires within me that have lain
dormant and are seeking expression? Is there a voyage
I can take to resolve the guilt and shame I carry and
bring me back to the essence of all that I am? Did I
182
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 182
go wrong on my life’s journey? Have others or I
caused the lessons I need to learn? Am I acting out
the family karma without realizing I haven’t given
space for my spiritual nature? Who am I? What am
I? What am I made of? Is there more to life than the
humdrum superficiality of daily life?
These are questions to ask yourself in the search
for an awakened heart. Part of yourself can look at
the world and sense a deeper meaning behind everything
and an awareness that things should be different.
That part will guide you through the maze of
your own feelings back to the essence of what lies
within. The experience is not humdrum, nor can it
be obtained in ordinary life. The full impact of
knowing the true light of Self is perhaps the greatest
adventure anyone can embark on.
Jeremy came to his session full of questions about his life and
identity. Although he was filled with joy and anticipation as
a boy, his sense of exhilaration and joy of life was buried under
a mountain of responsibilities and work over the years.
During his session, Jeremy expanded his consciousness to
open his mind and heart to a vision of Divine Magnificence.
A renewed sense of the intense joy and infinite potential of life
filled his entire being. In remembering the vastness and splendor
of Divine creation, Jeremy once again became infused with
the sense of adventure and anticipation that made his life
worth living.
When he returned home, Jeremy took his wife and children
on a trip to Alaska which renewed their sense of wonder for
life. It also gave them the time and space to deepen their bonds
of love and realize what was and was not important in life.
Heart Awakening sessions are an opportunity to
183
HA 6-1-08.qxp:rb.qxd 10/14/08 9:05 PM Page 183
listen to the voice of Spirit more clearly than ever
before. You move beyond form and structure into a
moment-to-moment revelation of what happens in
the healing process when Spirit takes over. The sessions
help you understand healing doesn’t have to be
created through a model or a specific line of questioning.
Each session is an unfolding, a work of art, a
unique act of creation and a release from the complexities
of the outer mind and its fragmented analysis
of what the healing process should be.
Sessions are a gift from Spirit for both the giver
and the receiver as a reward for coming into full
integrity. All we need is the willingness to step in
that direction and Spirit does the rest. Eventually,
each of us must cross this bridge.
How is the true essence of your Divine nature
expressed? The Divine can come through in many
ways – singing, sculpting, dancing – for it flows
through everything all of the time. But Heart
Awakening occurs when we want to give language to
the Divine love within.
The gift of Heart Awakening is a wide-open heart
and unlimited freedom. The result is unmistakable,
for it shines through every particle of your aura. It is
your body, your higher self and your divine self all
functioning together. Once you go through a Heart
Awakening, everyone you know becomes aware something
in you has shifted. The truth of its presence is
undeniable, even to the greatest skeptic, because you
remember what you know you should remember.
The energy of Spirit is certain, leaves no doubt and is
the guiding light for which all of us are searching.
