All health begins with how we perceive ourselves and our bodies.

The work I do to let go of my suffering diminishes the suffering of the whole universe. When I have room for my own pain, I have room for the pain of others. Only then can I be transformed into joy. As I heal, the Earth heals.

And, as you know, the present moment is where ALL your power is. A reminder I need regularly. Maybe you too.

As a doctor, let me tell you what self-love does: It improves your hearing, your eyesight, lowers your blood pressure, increases pulmonary function, cardiac output, and helps wiring the musculature. So, if we had a rampant epidemic of self-love then our healthcare costs would go down dramatically. So, this isn't just some little frou-frou new age notion, oh love yourself honey. This is hardcore science.

Feeling grateful or appreciative of someone or something in your life actually attracts more of the things that you appreciate and value into your life.

Love is a universal force, like gravity, that holds the solar system together and pours into our hearts as life-force - and gets expressed to us most beautifully by small children and animals.

The more you move toward what makes you feel good, and move away from those things which bring you distress and pain, the healthier you will be.
