Keep in mind that other people's actions can never 'make' you feel any certain way. Feelings are your warning indicators.

We need empathy to give empathy.

We can't win at somebody else's expense. We can only fully be satisfied when the other person's needs are fulfilled as well as our own.

The first step in healing is to put the focus on what's alive now, not what happened in the past.

Your presence is the most precious gift you can give to another human being.

Postpone result/solution thinking until later; it's through connection that solutions materialize - empathy before education.

In our culture, most of us have been trained to ignore our own wants and to discount our needs.
