Lauren Rosenfeld
“If you want to keep your memories, you first have to live them. —BOB DYLAN”
Lauren Rosenfeld, Breathing Room: Open Your Heart by Decluttering Your Home

Lauren Rosenfeld
“The truth is, we can all be made new through our difficult emotions. We have no need to fear the process. For example, a butterfly becomes strong as she struggles to make her way out of her cocoon; this strength enables her to take flight. If she were to try to live in the cocoon in a suspended state, she would perish. If we tried to preempt her struggle by cutting her out of it, she would never gain the strength to stretch her wings.”
Lauren Rosenfeld, Breathing Room: Open Your Heart by Decluttering Your Home

Rick     Hanson
“Neurons that fire together, wire together.” This saying from the work of the psychologist Donald Hebb means that active synapses—the connections between neurons—get more sensitive, plus new synapses grow, producing thicker neural layers.”
Rick Hanson, Just One Thing: Developing a Buddha Brain One Simple Practice at a Time

Elizabeth Gilbert
“My desire to work—my desire to engage with my creativity as intimately and as freely as possible—is my strongest personal incentive to fight back against pain, by any means necessary, and to fashion a life for myself that is as sane and healthy and stable as it can possibly be. But that’s only because of what I have chosen to trust, which is quite simply: love.”
Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic: Creative Living Beyond Fear

Laura Maciuika
“In her book Molecules of Emotion, Dr. Pert describes her own work and that of other scientists, which shows how peptides help create a flow of information across all systems of the body. Dr. Pert makes this analogy: “Peptides are the sheet music containing the notes, phrases, and rhythms that allow the orchestra—your body—to play as an integrated entity. And the music that results is the tone or feeling you experience subjectively as your emotions.” 21”
Laura Maciuika, Conscious Calm: Keys to Freedom from Stress and Worry
