We eat the way we live.

To discover what you really believe, pay attention to the way you act -- and to what you do when things don't go the way you think they should. Pay attention to what you value. Pay attention to how and on what you spend your time. Your money. And pay attention to the way you eat.

All any feeling wants is to be welcomed with tenderness. It wants room to unfold. It wants to relax and tell its story. It wants to dissolve like a thousand writhing snakes that with a flick of kindness become harmless strands of rope.

It's not life in the present moment that is intolerable; the pain we are avoiding has already happened. We are living in reverse.

The relentless attempts to be thin take you further and further away from what could actually end your suffering: getting back in touch with who you really are. Your true nature. Your essence.

Its not so much that we believe what we see, but that we see what we believe

You are not your past, not your habits, not your compulsions. When you get to know who you are, anything becomes possible.
