Change happens when you understand what you want to change so deeply that there is no reason to do anything but act in your own best interest.

The purpose of a spiritual path or religion is to provide a precise and believable way into what seems unbelievable.

You already have everything you need to be content. Your real work is to do whatever it takes to realize that.

We need to build our friendships on truth and wholeness. We need friends who can be with us in our loneliness, not people who will cheer us up so that we don’t feel it. We need friends who get furious with us when we are not being real or true to ourselves, not when we don’t do what they want us to do.

The problem isn't that we have bodies; the problem is that we're not living in them.

We eat the way we eat because we are afraid to feel what we feel.

The way you eat is inseparable from your core beliefs about being alive. Your relationship with food is an exact mirror of your feelings about love, fear, anger, meaning and transformation.
