What gets in our way is history and culture and religion and economic conditions. It is part of the hypnosis of our social conditioning.
Deepak ChopraWhen your awareness is contracted, the flow of energy and information throughout your bodymind is hampered. You tend to stay stuck in toxic emotions such as regret, resentment, and self-pity. Non-nurturing habits such as overeating and not exercising take hold. The feedback loop between your mind and your body turns negative, and stress can hit you instantaneously or grind away at you day after day.
Deepak ChopraAlthough our package of skin and bones looks very convincing, it is a mask, an illusion, disguising our true self, which has no limitations.
