“even if you’re only a child, there’s something in you that knows what your true path is and isn’t about, and that honouring it is important. But since you didn’t have a choice (or didn’t know it), you adapted. This resulted in an inner conflict of loyalty. You felt angry about following the wrong path at your expense, or you felt guilty about following your true path and your own nature at other people’s expense. That conflict may still affect your life today. You may lie to yourself about your true needs, or force yourself to follow the values of other people.”

“A part of you, for example, forgets to enjoy the present moment because it still regrets an old life that you were forced to give up. Or it can be locked in the behavior of your childish self, and you become angry when you don’t get what you want immediately, or you’re too shy to ask for what you need.”

“(Hidden) resistance towards negative experiences may result in postponing, feeling overwhelmed, perfectionism, anger, laziness, or feeling tired. Resistance is a warning that you are doing something (something that you used to do, but that no longer is needed) that blocks the flow of your authentic you, of your vitality, and happiness. Sometimes the best solution is to relax, and allow everything to rearrange itself naturally. In my case, when things get sluggish and stagnate, it’s because I’m not following my priorities, or because I’m doing too much, trying to make things better than perfect.”

“give compassion to the part of you that feels angry, guilty, or resistant, even if you cannot define what that part is, or what the aversion is about. Give it permission to move out of it. Say to yourself: “It’s okay to feel resistance. I understand it. Thanks for the warning. It’s okay to leave. It’s okay to follow my own heart, and to be me.” Embrace your feelings with compassion, and choose NOW to express your joy, vision, and dreams without guilt, anger or other negative emotions. Your life belongs to you and to you only. You are not accountable to anyone for your values or the choices of your heart.”

“each difficulty we face in life is a reminder that something is not quite in harmony with who we truly are and what our life purpose is. When we correct it right away, at the beginning, we’ll will get back on course quickly and easily. But when you don’t take those difficulties seriously, the inconveniences caused by them become challenges. You often may not be aware of the red flags that signal them. “This is my daily life,” you may think. But these challenges then become frustrations, and when you still do nothing to bring them in harmony with your true self, they grow and mutate into a monstrous problem. Finally, the problem swallows you up, and you get stuck.”
