A painful time in our life is what I call a healing crisis. We are letting go of something old and opening to something new.
Shakti GawainNot being in touch with your vulnerability and not learning to own it and accept it and be comfortable with it leaves you in a position where you're liable to look at and judge other people for being vulnerable because they're reflecting that part of yourself that you're not comfortable with.
Shakti GawainOur "life education" has not necessarily taught us a satisfying way to live. We suffer from a vague sense that there must be something more, some deeper meaning. We must return to kindergarten and start to learn a way of life that is contrary to the way we approached things before-a way of life based on trust of our own inner truth. We can rediscover the child-like innocence and wisdom that knows that anything is possible.
Shakti GawainEvery time you don't follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness.
