Everything always passes, and everything is already okay. Stay in the place where you can see that, and nothing will resist you.

What would you do if you knew that every good thing in your life depended on your getting enough rest? Because it does.

Stop fixating on stuff you can touch and start caring about stuff that touches you.

The past doesn’t exist except as a memory, a mental story, and though past events aren’t changeable, your stories about them are. You can act now to transform the way you tell the story of your past, ultimately making it a stalwart protector of your future.

If a problem looks difficult, relax. If it looks impossible, relax even more. Then begin encouraging small changes, putting just enough pressure on yourself to move one turtle step forward. Then rest, savor, celebrate. Then step again. You’ll find that slow is fast, gentle is powerful, and stillness moves mountains.

The way that other people judge me is none of my business.

Basic human contact - the meeting of eyes, the exchanging of words - is to the psyche what oxygen is to the brain. If you're feeling abandoned by the world, interact with anyone you can.
