Loving everything about yourself - even the 'unacceptable' - is an act of personal power. It is the beginning of healing.

Your emotions are your inner guidance system. They alone will let you know whether you are living in an environment of biochemical health or in an environment of biochemical distress. Understanding how your thoughts and your emotions affect every single hormone and cell in your body, and knowing how to change them in a way that is health-enhancing, gives you access to the most powerful and empowering health-creating secret on earth.

We have the ability to become far more powerful and happy and healthy than we ever dreamed possible. At any age.

To get to forgiveness, we first have to work through the painful experiences that require it.

Our desires are the way that the healing life force comes through us and replenishes our bodies.

Mindfulness is the key to everything, and this is especially true when one approaches the cultural portal known as "middle age." This is when people mindlessly believe that it's normal to get diseases and start to fall apart. But the truth is that midlife is the time when people need to wake up and be far more mindful about their everyday habits and thinking patterns.

Learning to love yourself should not become a life-long challenge that most of us never meet.
