When we harbor negative emotions toward others or toward ourselves, or when we intentionally create pain for others, we poison our own physical and spiritual systems. By far the strongest poison to the human spirit is the inability to forgive oneself or another person. It disables a person's emotional resources. The challenge...is to refine our capacity to love others as well as ourselves and to develop the power of forgiveness.

For me, all of the data that is contained in your cell memory, and in your energetic field, is able to be picked up.

It doesn't matter what you choose, what matters is the energy with which you choose it.

Have no judgments about your life, no expectations, and give up the need to know what happens tomorrow.

I don't think most people know how to meditate - they fall asleep and they call it meditation. I prefer a kind of sweet, deep, rich prayer in which a person goes in and says, Take me down deep into the reason you gave me life. Take me down deep. It silences the chaos in me. Take me away from my sense. I need to go away now, because I'm in chaos - take me down deep. Hover over me, because I need grace. I say that a lot, many times a day. So that's my practice.

Of course you battle despair. It is often a day-to-day fight, but it's one that can be won.

We are born intuitive, which is why for most people, their intuition is actually the source of their greatest suffering.
