When we put down ideas of what life should be like, we are free to wholeheartedly say yes to our life as it is.

Meditation is evolution's strategy to bring out our full potential.

We're so used to presenting ourselves and getting approval according to our achievements that it's difficult to be authentic and trust that we'll be accepted just as we are.

Offer some gesture of kindness to yourself. Sometimes it's just a message, to say: "It's okay. You're going to be okay. We've been through this before." The intention is reassurance, that you are not alone and you can do this. It is the most powerful way to come out of what I call the "trance of unworthiness."

The boundary to what we can accept is the boundary to our freedom.

On this sacred path of Radical Acceptance, rather than striving for perfection, we discover how to love ourselves into wholeness.

Underneath the stress is fear, and the biggest is our own personal fear of failure.
