Hell, in my opinion, is never finding your true self and never living your own life or knowing who you are.

Condemning others as bad or sinful is a way to feel righteous. Such a feeling is a powerful mood alteration and can become highly addictive.

Our beliefs create the kind of world we believe in. We project our feelings, thoughts and attitudes onto the world. I can create a different world by changing my belief about the world. Our inner state creates the outer and not vice versa.

I know from my own clinical work that when people are beaten and hurt, they numb out so that they cant feel anymore.

The more we know about how we lost our spontaneous wonder and creativity, the more we can find ways to get them back.

Guilt says I've done something wrong; ... shame says there is something wrong with me. Guilt says I've made a mistake; ... shame says I am a mistake. Guilt says what did was not good; ... shame says I am no good.

You can't heal what you can't feel!
