Healing may not be so much about getting better, as about letting go of everything that isnโt you - all of the expectations, all of the beliefs - and becoming who you are.
Rachel Naomi RemenPeople are waking up in their homes - without conferences. They're waking up because life is waking them up, not because of some conference called "Body and Soul."
Rachel Naomi RemenOurs is not a culture that respects the sick, the old or the vulnerable. We strive for independence, competence, and mastery. In embracing such 'frontier' values, we may become intolerant of human wholeness, contemptuous of anything in ourselves, and in others, that has needs or is capable of suffering. The denial of a vulnerability is the ultimate barrier to compassion.
