My Favorite Quotes

"I leave you free to be yourself: to think your thoughts, indulge your tastes, follow your inclinations, behave in ways that you decide are to your liking." - Wayne Dyer in "There is a Spiritual Solution to Every Problem"

"The greatest gift you can give to anyone. Your children, your mate, a stranger, anyone is to say, 'I am self sufficient and I am in charge of the way I feel. And you all just go and do your thing and be however you need to be and I will selectively sift from among you, even the specific components of each of you and I will practice those components that resonate with my source until I have practiced a vibrational frequency that becomes my proclivity, it becomes my mood, it becomes my point of attraction and I will illicit from you things that make me feel wonderful when I illicit them." We should be willing to say "Do anything you need to do or want to do. It really isn't any of my business what you do. It is my business to find things in you that please me." - Abraham (Esther Hicks)

Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half a sorrow. ~Swedish Proverb

If you were going to die soon and had only one phone call you could make, who would you call and what would you say? And why are you waiting? ~Stephen Levine

Present your family and friends with their eulogies now - they won't be able to hear how much you love them and appreciate them from inside the coffin. ~Anonymous

Relationships offer us an opportunity to share and grow. By being uplifting ourselves we are uplifting others. We all deserve to feel loved and the first love starts with ourself. Life is filled with enough pain and drama. Be the feel good person in other's lives in it will bring you peace in your own life.

Your home should be your own private wellness retreat, your favorite vacation spot that inspires you. A place you look forward to and not a place you avoid or feel you need to get away from it all. Afterall, what you are really doing is running away from yourself.

Your home is a reflection of your life. Fill it with things you love and enjoy, eliminate anything that is not worthy of your highest self. Ask yourself, "Is this the best reflection of me?" We all deserve to live in our own private sanctuary or temple and experience heaven on earth, paradise in the Garden of Eden.

The strength of a nation derives from the integrity of the home.- Confucius

When you don't feel like doing it, don't push yourself, because your effort is not worth it. But, when you line up the Energy, the feeling of procrastination goes away. " - Abraham

"Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." - Chinese Proverb

The very best thing you can do for the entire world is to make the most of yourself. - Wallace Wattles

The greatest wealth is health. ~Virgil

~ Henry David Thoreau

Health is a state of complete harmony of the body, mind and spirit. When one is free from physical disabilities and mental distractions, the gates of the soul open. ~B.K.S. Iyengar

Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. ~World Health Organization, 1948

The best six doctors anywhere
And no one can deny it
Are sunshine, water, rest, and air
Exercise and diet.
These six will gladly you attend
If only you are willing
Your mind they'll ease
Your will they'll mend
And charge you not a shilling.
~Nursery rhyme quoted by Wayne Fields, What the River Knows, 1990

If you have health, you probably will be happy, and if you have health and happiness, you have all the wealth you need, even if it is not all you want. ~Elbert Hubbard

When it comes to eating right and exercising, there is no "I'll start tomorrow." Tomorrow is disease. ~V.L. Allineare

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are we not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small doesn’t serve the world. There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us, it’s in everyone. And as we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fears, our presence automatically liberates others." - Marianne Williamson

“What would you do if you knew you could not fail?” - Robert H. Schuller quotes

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?" - Mary Oliver
