How to get to sending love?

Kostya:

I wrote a lot on this topic, but felt I want to do it again. And I address this short write-up to those who already know how great it is to send love, but "for some reason" you seem not to be able send love right now.

Why sometimes we can't send love? In other words, why sometimes we feel nothing when we attempt sending love? (Because before we used to feel very beautiful sensations in our body when we were sending love.)

Climbing up emotional scale

The answer is very simple: we are just too low on emotional scale to be able to feel and send love. If you feel depressed -- you can't feel love at the same time. If you are angry or blaming or even bored- you can't feel love at the same time. But if you are higher on the emotional scale, like at Optimism or at Eagerness -- then you are much closer to Love and it's much easier to feel Love and send Love.

Following emotional scale it taken from "Ask and it is given" by Esther and Jerry Hicks:

1. Joy/Knowledge/Empowerment/Freedom/Love/Appreciation
2. Passion
3. Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness
4. Positive Expectation/Belief
5. Optimism
6. Hopefulness
7. Contentment
8. Boredom
9. Pessimism
10. Frustration/Irritation/Impatience
11. “Overwhelment”
12. Disappointment
13. Doubt
14. Worry
15. Blame
16. Discouragement
17. Anger
18. Revenge
19. Hatred/Rage
20. Jealousy
21. Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness
22. Fear/Grief/Depression/Despair/Powerlessness

How you can climb up the emotional scale -- to get to the point where you again can send Love?
Abraham has some techniques in their books, like climbing the scale by feeling a higher feeling on each step up. So if one is depressed, then a step higher would be to feel let's say guilty for this depression. Next step - feel jealous for something, then hate something.

Isn't it strange to read this in a newsletter on Love? :))
I also was very surprised to find out that there is something good even in "negative" feelings like anger. And the good part in it is that it's higher than, let's say, depression!

So in this manner you can climb the ladder all the way up, where you can now send love. Imaging that! So easy!

Laughing and smiling

"The answer is -- negative blocks in your mind came up and prevent the flow of love. So you need to melt them. Smiling and laughing melts them." This is what I said before to the question: "Why sometimes we can't send love? In other words, why sometimes we feel nothing when we attempt sending love?"

Now my understanding is that continuous smiling (like for 40 days in a row) or laughing (like for 2 hours each day for 2 weeks) brings you us the emotional scale to the place where you again can feel and send love.
