Love From Heaven
Love from Heaven will transform the way you think about love; it will stir up the love that is within you, making you more compassionate, happier and will change your life and the lives of the people around you.
Lorna Byrne, the Irish mystic who sees angels as clearly as she sees people, reveals for the first time that she also sees love as a physical force. This gives her a unique insight into love.
We are all born as pure love but Lorna sees 90% of all adults with what looks like a transparent iron band around the body at heart level locking away most of this love. We can't destroy or diminish this love though and Lorna, in this book, teaches us how we can release more of this love and love ourselves and others more.

About the author
Lorna Byrne
18 books423 followersINTERNATIONAL #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR WHO SEES ANGELS PHYSICALLY
Lorna Byrne is an international number 1 bestselling author (her last two books have gone straight in at #1 on the UK Sunday Times Chart) with more than a million readers around the world. Her books, Angels in my Hair, Stairways to Heaven, A Message of Hope from the Angels and Love from Heaven have been translated into 30 languages.
Lorna has been seeing angels since she was a baby. Very unusually, she sees angels physically with as much clarity as the rest of us see people and she sees them every day. This diminutive, soft-spoken, uneducated Irish woman who did not talk about what she was seeing until seven years ago, says she has no idea why she can see angels when others can’t, adding that she is just an ordinary person.
While it is difficult to believe that someone can see angels physically the clarity and hope inherent in Lorna’s message that everyone regardless of religion has a guardian angel, has made her a world-wide phenomenon. She has been featured extensively in respected European media - including BBC TV and Radio, The Economist, The Observer, The Telegraph, The Times, The Catholic Herald. She is a blogger for the Huffington Post.
, Few who have spoken with Lorna Byrne fail to be impressed by the wisdom and humility of this Irish woman. The overwhelming response of her more than a million readers all around the world is that knowing that Lorna sees a guardian angel with everyone has given them the belief that they have a guardian angel. They say that this assurance gives them tremendous hope and comfort, particularly in these challenging times.
An important part of Lorna’s message is that she sees a guardian angel with everyone regardless of religion (or lack of religion). She talks of the guardian angel as the gatekeeper of the soul. Lorna frequently speaks to and prays with groups from different faiths and says that interfaith prayer is particularly powerful.
Lorna is a widow with four children and lives quietly in rural Ireland

I thought it was a really great book all around. Honestly even if you are not a spiritual person the book is FULL of really inspirational and heartfelt stories that really make you think about life and how you treat others and yourself. There were a few parts that felt a bit more on the preachy side and not even in a religious type way, just more of a almost pointing in your face yelling at you way that I was kind of put off by but only like once or twice and it kind of just made me go ehhhhhhh I dunno about that part kind of thing. Overall I would definitely recommend this book to friends and family. It gets you right in the feels and makes you rethink the way you look at life and interact with people because you really do have no idea what they’re going through. But it also gives you SO much hope as well. It’s a beautiful book. That’s my two cents

I chose to read this after reading Angels In My Hair. For weeks after my purchase, the book sat on my bedroom reading table. Every night I read the title and subtitle, would shrug and mindfully set it aside with, "Why did I buy this, I know what love is."
One night, there were three books on my reading table. Lorna's book, and two how-to books. I didn't feel much like reading any how-to books this night and finally opened Love from Heaven.
During the first chapter, the mind kept repeating "Why am I reading this, I know what love is?"
I think it was after the second chapter I noticed that line changed to “Even though I know what love is, maybe I can still learn to improve.” I felt a small draft opened that night.
After a few more chapters, the next morning, that mantra changed. The new line was, "Do we ever really truly know what love is?" Later in the day, I realized my ego had been yanking my chain.
After reading each chapter, I became aware of how I could allow love to develop further in my life. How it needs to begin with myself and how it can transfer out to others. Each step was a gift. A gift that still keeps on giving even after finishing the book.
Somewhere before finishing, I started a new practice each evening. I took a few minutes, remember each encounter that day, and how I did or didn’t transfer love. As I practice my awareness improves and love grows.
I still can’t completely answer what love is. Yet the journey has, is, delightfully rich.
I highly recommend this book and hope it enriches your life as much as it did, does, mine.
Read, enjoy, learn and love,
Catherine

[Update: I read this again without remembering I had read it before. I found it a little tedious at times, but still really liked it a lot. And what's funny is that I was going to sit down and quote portions of Chapter 9, my favorite chapter, which was also my favorite chapter in 2014.]
I have to admit right up: I love Lorna Byrne’s guardian angel accounts. Her first book is about how she has been able to see angels her entire life, and as a result her family and others thought she had something wrong with her. So if you’re in the complete skeptic camp and think all this angel stuff is hokum, they probably aren’t for you. But who knows? Because she so freely admits what she doesn’t know about angels, God’s will, etc., I find her more believable.
This book, her fourth or fifth, focuses on how people don’t love themselves, and ways to increase self-love, since most of us “lock away our love,” not intentionally, but as “an involuntary reaction to things that happen around us” 69-70.
All that aside, however, of course it is true that if we don’t love ourselves, we can’t really love others. We can need them. We can make ourselves indispensable to them. We can want their love and approval to make up for a lack of those feelings within. But we can't love others any more than we love ourselves.
So Byrne’s encouragement is actually quite balanced.
My favorite chapter is Chapter Nine: Making the Conscious Decision to Love Your Own Life; it’s full of little suggestions for appreciating life as it comes: “ Very few of us love life enough; very few of us love it to the extent that [a girl she describes] does. Most of us allow small things to get in the way of our enjoyment of life, and we get into the habit of not seeing all the wonderful things that are in our lives” (110). She describes it as a conscious choice, and I agree with her. Just as if I wait to act loving towards others until I fully love myself it may never happen, if I wait until I notice that life is beautiful it might take a long time, time that I could improve with a conscious decision to notice the beauty and wonder and love around me.
At the end of Love from Heaven Byrne offers a “Seven-Day Path to Love Yourself More,” so those who are into that sort of instructed exercise have a concrete “plan” to follow.
I’m sure I’ll read more of Byrne’s books; none of the others are available in the local library system, so I’ll just keep an eye out at thrift stores. So hey, Guardian Angel, are you listening? Maybe you can help me find the other books.

By the age of ten most people–and I mean more than nine out of ten—have locked away a significant proportion of their love from themselves and others.I sometimes get annoyed with the “you’ve got to love yourself before you can love others” train of thought; I guess it’s because I heard it in recovery a lot, and people addicted to alcohol and other drugs, food, sex, etc., are some of the most supremely self-centered people in the world, so I believe most of them (us) need to learn to love ourselves by loving others, not after we have learned to love ourselves.
This love never disappears, though; love can never be destroyed or diminished. It is there locked away inside you and you have the choice to release it. You can choose to allow yourself to feel it. Doing so will help you to stop destroying yourself and others. It will make your life happier and more fulfilled. 19-20
All that aside, however, of course it is true that if we don’t love ourselves, we can’t really love others. We can need them. We can make ourselves indispensable to them. We can want their love and approval to make up for a lack of those feelings within. But we can't love others any more than we love ourselves.
So Byrne’s encouragement is actually quite balanced.
When people love themselves, I see the love force radiating from them, and affecting everyone around them, in turn making them more loving and happier. Loving yourself more changes everything. When you learn to allow more of your love out, you will be less judgmental of your own perceived imperfections, and so become happier and more fulfilled. (179)That may not have been the very best quote to demonstrate my point: Byrne always emphasizes that when we love ourselves, that love radiates out and has a positive effect on others; it's not something we do solely for our own benefit.

Everybody should read this book. Lorna Byrne is a pure soul in the best sense of the word. She is looking at this world and us through the eyes of love and holds hope in her heart that we will choose love before it's too late. You may not agree with everything Lorna says but so much of what she advocates in a gentle but clear-eyed fashion is common sense and wisdom. I read this book in two sittings and felt such optimism and hope emanating from its pages I really didn't want it to end.

I always love Lorna's books. This one seemed more of a specific message for mankind: that Love is real and has a place in healing humanity and creating better conditions for all.
Loved it, but prefer her first two books, that were so close to her biography and showed in all simplicity WHO she is and the importance of her message.

NEBESKÁ LÁSKA je čtvrtá autorčina kniha. Je to krátká kniha na jedno posezení. Je to pěkná kniha.
Láska je v životě velmi důležitá. Autorka v jednotlivých kapitolách popisuje různé druhy lásky – láska k sobě samému, sesterská láska, přátelství, láska ke zvířatům, láska k dětem a jiné formy lásky. Autorka také myslí na ochranu životního prostředí a dočteme se také o nenávisti, žárlivosti a hněvu.
Myslím si, že bych podepsal všechno, o čem autorka píše. Bylo by skvělé, pokud bychom se autorčinými radami řídili, anebo se alespoň na chvíli nad nimi zamysleli. V některých částech jsem se viděl osobně a zpětně jsem si uvědomil, jaké jsem v minulosti dělal chyby. Kdybych mohl vrátit čas, choval bych se lépe k lidem, kteří mě měli rádi, ačkoliv mi v minulosti ublížili, anebo lidem, na kterých mi záleželo.
Každý člověk má srdce, v každém člověku je láska, ale záleží rovněž na tom, v jakém prostředí člověk vyrůstal, co všechno prožil a podobně. Pokud prožil špatné okamžiky, může dojít k tomu, že se v něm láska uzavře, nemusí si vážit sám sebe, a tudíž nebude schopný milovat jiné lidi, nebude schopný jim předat lásku, nedokáže se úplně otevřít, a to je škoda.
V závěru knihy se nachází Dodatek: MODLITBA TVÝCH ANDĚLŮ LÉČITELŮ.
Citáty:
Mnozí z nás, kteří sourozence máme, si toho někdy neváží. Ani si neuvědomujeme, jak je máme rádi, dokud není pozdě, a i když to víme, často nemáme tolik odvahy, abychom bratrovi nebo sestře řekli, že je máme rádi.
Andělé mě poučili, že přátelství nám pomáhá pozorovat útržky světa jakoby očima jiných lidí, a to nás upozorňuje na skutečnost, že naše hledisko nemusí být jediné správné, že se můžeme mýlit. Přátelství nás také činí soucitnějšími, díky přátelství si lépe uvědomujeme vlastní nedokonalost, a proto jsme schopni dát ostatním šanci.

I discovered Lorna Byrne on YouTube. I was so excited to find this book at the library, especially as it talks about self-love, which I'm studying for my healing and the book I'm writing. I love that Lorna doesn't only see angels but that she actually sees the force of love on or between people. There are some life-changing insights in this book. It was beautiful, simple, and full of truth. I personally don't agree with one idea though. She said that the angels said that animals don't have souls and that their love is only a reflection of the love we've given them. Why do mediums and animal communicators connect with animal souls then? Why do those animal souls often have great wisdom and insight? I've read several books on the spiritual side of animals and how they've helped people heal and overcome grief and difficulties. Many animals love us unconditionally even when we fail to love them properly first. I'm not disputing that she connected with angels, but I think she may have missed this point somewhere. I loved the little self-love exercise at the end. Really effective. This book is brimming with love and positive energy.

'Love from Heaven' by Lorna Byrne
Years ago, I read, 'Angels in my Hair', Lorna's autobiography, and then moved on to my next book without much pause. I admired it though, as an obviously true and interesting account of Lorna's life and involvement with Spirit. For some reason, this latest book popped up in my 'recommendations' at Amazon, and I took a look. Lorna's name has come up in conversation lately, and I remembered her.
Interesting, heartfelt and occasionally sobering and galvanising, Lorna's straight delivery simply makes the messages in this book more real and concrete, for me at any rate. I'm happy to recommend this text, and Lorna's writing, to anyone who would enjoy being reminded of what matters in life, and how to make the most of our blessings.

I really enjoyed this book, it isn’t a long read , but it is a valuable read. It teaches about love, for self, another and humanity in general. It should be on everyone’s reading list, it’s that helpful.
At the back of the book is a 7 day mini course on self love, and it’s very interesting and powerful, don’t be fooled into thinking it’s nothing because I found that far from the case.
Highly recommended for those willing to open their heart.

Love Lorna Byrne--her books are incredibly inspiring and Love From Heaven is no exception. There are few books which teach us how to love ourselves, and as Lorna explains it's necessary to develop self-love before we can truly love others. The seven day path at the end to love yourself more had great suggestions. Like the words to that song, "what the world needs now, is love sweet love."

Bellissimo

I found this to be a simple read. I've been watching some of her videos on Youtube and she seems very down-to-earth and peaceful. Basically the premise of this book is that our lives are about love and that we are love. She shares stories on how the angels would give her lessons on love. I'm not sure I'm a believer in angels, although I do like the idea that they do exist. She says that at a young age, we start putting up walls around our hearts because we find it difficult to love others as we do not want to get hurt. This is not done consciously.
The chapters cover all the types of sources for love. Love comes from many sources including yourself, siblings, parents, friendships, strangers, animals, and children. She says that animals don't have souls. I'm sure not everyone would agree with this. I did read years ago from spiritual teacher Rudolf Steiner that animals have group souls so there may be some validity to this.
She says that we have a soulmate but that they might incarnate at a different time then we do. One example of a soulmate relationship she saw was between a doctor and their patient - a young child who didn't have much time left. I thought this was strange but I've heard others say we have multiple soulmates. She does say in chapter 11 that there is a specific type of angel that helps us find romantic partners. She doesn't say if they have names so I thought that was strange. How are we to call for them? Just ask generally?
She says that the purpose of a romantic partner is for procreation and raising families but I don't really agree with this. I mean, it's nice to share your life with someone and talk about the mundane day-to-day events. That doesn't mean that children are required. She does say that people seem to be too focused on finding romantic love and end up ignoring the love around them from other sources such as friends and family. Again, romantic love to me seems like a completely different type of love and fulfills a specific need that you just can't really get from friends and family. She said that the angels try to help couples that are right for each other but sometimes people walk away from the relationship, even though they were with the right person. Angels are supposed to respect our free will so they can't force people to stay together.
The last chapter she outlines a seven-day path to love yourself more. She outlines various exercises to practice. Below are the themes for each day:
Day 1: Acknowledge that you are pure love
Day 2: Choose to love yourself more
Day 3: Loving yourself is not selfish
Day 4: You are deserving of love
Day 5: You are unique - there is no one else in the world like you
Day 6: Notice the love that is around you
Day 7: Celebrate! When you love yourself more, you will be happier

Enjoyed Lorna's reminders to practice compassion for myself and others too. I do believe in angels and my Guardian Angel but not to the extent of Lorna.
My favourite lines:
"Love, for ourselves or another, helps us connect more deeply with our spirituality, with our soul." (p10) "Your guardian angel loves you unconditionally. It never judges you" (p21) "Everything that is worth doing requires effort, and friendship is no different" (p64) "We each have the potential to love strangers because we are all connected; each and every one of us has a soul, and all our souls are one; they are all a part of God" (p67) "You have to make a conscious decision to love life. It won't happen on its own and no one else can do it for you. (p.115) "We all need to wake up and be more aware of the beauty and gifts of nature that surround us ; we hold the future of this planet in our hands" (p129-8) "We are spiritual as well as physical beings, even if we often forget this. Our soul is linked with our body."(p 141) "Forgiveness is such an enormous gift to us in helping to break the cycles of jealousy, anger, and hate." (p168) "We must always remember that the healing will happen in the way that God knows is best for us. Sometimes we may not recognize that healing has occurred" (p213). Only disagree with Lorna about animals. She says they don't have souls and most of the love that comes from an animal is human love reflected back but acknowledges that your pet will be waiting for you when you go to heaven (pp 94-96).

(p168) "We must always remember that the healing will happen in the way that God knows is best for us. Sometimes we may not recognize that healing has occurred" (p213). Only disagree with Lorna about animals. She says they don't have souls and most of the love that comes from an animal is human love reflected back but acknowledges that your pet will be waiting for you when you go to heaven (pp 94-96).

The author offers several prayers in this book and a 7-day plan at the end. I appreciated her discussion of animals, siblings, family relationships, and guardian angels. On guardian angels: "Your guardian angel loves you unconditionally. It never judges you, and sees you as perfect in every way."
This comment from the author also resonated: "We all need to be aware when hurtful or hateful things are being said about people. We all have a responsibility to stop cycles of hatred from being built up. This applies to each of us as individuals in relation to gossip, or talking negatively about people."
Our guardian angels don't judge us, and we should refrain from judging others. It's just not our role. Love yourself and that will help each of us to love others. As Mother Teresa said, "If you judge people, you have no time to love them." It's really that simple.

love is the essence of the universe
Just a simple, heartfelt little book meant to communicate the importance of loving ourselves and each other. As the Beatles said, “All you need is love.”
