"Nurture great thoughts, for you will never go higher than your thoughts." --Benjamin Disraeli

"How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives." -- Annie Dillard

“We cannot bring order to the world or to our lives as long as we fail to recognize that, in reality, all human beings are holograms of humanity. We all reflect the whole, and it is essential for us to begin to think in this way.”

-- Wayne Dyer

When I’m feeling angry, sad or anxious, I ask, “How much of this is mine?” When I ask this question, a percent figure arrives in my head. Usually the number is 30% or less.

Those of us who are sensitive sometimes pick up on whatever emotional energy is hanging around in the environment, and we begin to experience those feelings. We may sometimes also experience physical symptoms that are similar to, or symbolic of, someone else’s experience. It feels like ours – we really do feel the emotions or physical or mental symptoms. But really, we are processing ‘generic’ emotion or physical or mental symptoms that belong to others or to humanity as a whole.

I’m usually relieved to learn it’s not all mine. Then, I can more consciously decide how I want to handle what I am experiencing.

I sometimes tell the angels (or the Universe or the Creator or whatever is a comfortable word) that I am willing to contribute to clearing planetary energy, but I would like it to be in some way that is not uncomfortable or debilitating for me. Or I ask the angels if they would please help me release this from my own energy field.

"The collective energy generated from the feelings, thoughts, and attitudes of the almost six billion people on this planet creates an atmosphere or 'consciousness climate.' Surrounding us like the air we breathe, this consciousness climate affects us most strongly on energetic and emotional levels."

-- Doc Childre and Howard Martin


"Who you really are is enough."

-- Oriah Mountain Dreamer

"Wherever you are is always the right place. There is never a need to fix anything, to hitch up the bootstraps of the soul and start at some higher place. Start right where you are."

-- Julia Cameron

"Everything you need you already have. You are complete right now, you are a whole, total person, not an apprentice person on the way to someplace else."

-- Wayne Dyer
