228 Quotes by Shakti Gawain

As long as we focus on the outside, there will always be that empty, hungry, lost place inside that needs to be filled.

As you learn to consciously observe the transformation process, you will watch yourself repeating a lot of old patterns long after you seemingly know better. Spiritually and intellectually, you realize there is another way, but emotionally you are still clinging to the old habits. This is a difficult time. Try to be patient and compassionate with yourself. When you recognize the futility of an old pattern so clearly, it's about to change! A short time later, you will suddenly begin to respond differently, in a more positive way.

Our primary relationship is really with ourselves. Our relationships with other people constantly reflect exactly where we are in the process.

Every one of us comes into this life with lessons to learn and gifts to give.

As we begin to love and appreciate ourselves as we are, our channels open and we access the infinite vitality of life force.

If you constantly think of illness, you eventually become ill; if you believe yourself to be beautiful, you become so.

The way to a beautiful, strong, healthy body is to start by trusting yourself right now. Let go of the struggle and surrender to your body's needs. Your intuition will tell you what to eat. It may direct you to exercise vigorously, in which case you'll enjoy it, or it may tell you to slow down and rest. It may tell you to stay in bed all day, or it may tell you to get up early. There are no rigid rules. Your body knows perfectly well what's good for it.

Our life is a reflection of what we believe we deserve. As we deepen our acceptance of and open ourselves to the Infinite love of the universe, a new power flows through us, releasing us from the bondage of our old way of life.

I believe we are all geniuses-each in our own unique way.
