“You have the power to heal your life, and you need to know that. We think so often that we are helpless but we’re not. We always have the power of our minds. Claim and consciously use your power.” - Louise Hay
“Let go of who you think you’re supposed to be; embrace who you are.” - Brene Brown
“True personal growth is about transcending the part of you that is not okay and needs protection.” - Michael A. Singer
“Be yourself, then you can free yourself. Free yourself, then you can see yourself” - Graham Nash
“Radical Acceptance is the willingness to experience ourselves and our lives as it is.” - Tara Brach

“What you really long for is a deep intimacy with your own experience—the deepest acceptance of every thought, every sensation, every feeling. And that cannot come from outside of yourself.” - Jeff Foster
“Our sorrows and wounds are healed only when we touch them with compassion.” - Jack Kornfield
“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself just as I am, then I can change.” - Carl Rogers
“Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” - Viktor Frankl
“If we climb high enough, we will reach a height from which tragedy ceases to look tragic.” - Irvin D. Yalom

“You either walk inside your story and own it or you stand outside your story and hustle for your worthiness.” - Brene Brown
“Anything that's human is mentionable, and anything that is mentionable can be more manageable. When we can talk about our feelings, they become less overwhelming, less upsetting, and less scary. The people we trust with that important talk can help us know that we are not alone.” - Fred Rogers
“Perhaps the biggest tragedy of our lives is that freedom is possible, yet we can pass our years trapped in the same old patterns...We may want to love other people without holding back, to feel authentic, to breathe in the beauty around us, to dance and sing. Yet each day we listen to inner voices that keep our life small.” - Tara Brach
“The soul always knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind.” - Caroline Myss
