My willingness to be intimate with my own deep feelings creates the space for intimacy with another.
Shakti GawainMind and intuition are at opposite ends of the same continuum and our goal is to strike a healthy balance between the two.
Shakti GawainWe all have within us a deep sense of what we need, and what is right and true for us. To access this we need to pay attention to our feelings and our intuition. We need to learn to listen deeply to ourselves and to trust what we hear. And we need to risk acting on what we feel to be true. Even if we make mistakes, we must do this in order to learn and grow.
Shakti GawainI think in the Western world we have gotten overly identified with doing, and we've kind of forgotten about the art of being. And we don't see value in it; we think that if you're not doing something all of the time, being very active and producing something, then you're sort of wasting your time.
