Andrew Weil
Imagine that each time you inhale, that the universe is breathing into you, and as you exhale it is breathing out of you.
Andrew Weil

I do not claim to have attained optimum emotional well-being. Actually, I think that may be a lifetime goal. For me it’s an ongoing process that requires awareness, knowledge, and practice. I do know what good emotional health feels like, and that motivates me to keep at the practice.
Andrew Weil
Your body can heal itself. It can do so because it has a healing system. If you are in good health, you will want to know about this system, because it is what keeps you in good health and because you can enhance that condition. If you or people you love are sick, you will want to know about this system, because it is the best hope for recovery.
Andrew Weil
Even low-calorie diets and vigorous exercise fail to work in the long term for at least some people.
Andrew Weil
If at the first sign of infection, you always jump in with antibiotics, you do not give the immune system a chance to grow stronger.
Andrew Weil
Most disease is lifestyle related and preventable
Andrew Weil
Gardening is not trivial. If you believe that it is, closely examine why you feel that way. You may discover that this attitude has been forced upon you by mass media and the crass culture it creates and maintains. The fact is, gardening is just the opposite - it is, or should be, a central, basic expression of human life.
Andrew Weil
Genuine happiness comes from within, and often it comes in spontaneous feelings of joy.
Andrew Weil
