“Suppose you’re called on to navigate some particularly difficult life dilemma, your own, or that of a close confidant. You yearn to talk matters over with your mentor, spouse, or best friend. Yet, for whatever reason, you can’t get a hold of these valued others—perhaps they’re traveling, busy, or even deceased. Research shows that simply imagining having a conversation with them is as good as actually talking with them. So consult them in your mind. Ask them what advice they’d offer. In this way, a cherished parent or mentor, even if deceased, leaves you with an inner voice that guides you through challenging times. Your past moments of love and connection make you lastingly wiser.”

“Love is that micro-moment of warmth and connection that you share with another living being”

“Love draws you out of your cocoon of self-absorption to attune to others. Love allows you to really see another person, holistically, with care, concern, and compassion.”

“Prvi korak za svakog od nas u procesu raščišćavanja jest da svoju osobnu dramu potpuno osvjestimo. Ništa se ne može nastaviti sve dok ne pogledamo sami sebe i ne otkrijemo što činimo kako bi manipulirali energijom.”
