Taking charge of your Love Flow

We don’t have to just accept the way things happen. We can do things to influence events in our lives. 

Micko points out that in recent clown evolution clowns have created many ways to develop our clown potential.

But not every approach works for every clown, so Micko suggests you try some things out and see what works for you.

Micko calls these “Love Experiments”.

Create your personal Love Spiral!

Micko suggests you follow these simple steps to create your own Love Spiral:

  1. Choose a Love Experiment that feels right for you and try it.
  2. Evaluate your positive outcomes. Did you experience any positive shifts in your Self-Love, Other-Love, or World-Love?
  3. Accentuate your positive outcomes! Make a big deal of them in your mind! Give yourself credit for taking charge of your Love Flow and creating more Love in your life!
  4. Decide how to proceed: Do the same Love Experiment again? Try a different Love Experiment? Try more than one Love Experiment?
  5. Try your Love Experiment(s) and do the other steps again.

This becomes your spiral intervention cycle.

When you complete 3 cycles this becomes your Love Spiral, according to the research Micko did at Clown College.

Below you will find a variety of possible Love Experiments that Micko has learned about.

Becoming a bodherattva.

Micko says that we can Take Charge of our Love Flow at a higher level of our consciousness by making a conscious decision to maximize our Self-Love, our Other-Love, and our World-Love. 

In some clown traditions they talk about becoming a bodherattva.

This refers to any clown who vows to integrate personal growth with a desire to create a world in which all clowns love each other.

This creates a synergistic process in which both self-interest and other-interest are integrated.
