More quotes by Geneen Roth
. . . hell is wanting to be somewhere different from where you are. Being one place and wanting to be somewhere else . . . . Wanting life to be different from what it is. That's also called leaving without leaving. Dying before you die. It's as if there is a part of you that so rails against being shattered by love that you shatter yourself first.

Geneen Roth
We eat the way we eat because we are afraid to feel what we feel.
Geneen Roth
When you don't want to be where you are, you create suffering for yourself. Change happens through acceptance, kindness and relaxation--not resistance, not warfare, not fights.
Geneen Roth
You are not your past, not your habits, not your compulsions. When you get to know who you are, anything becomes possible.

I tell my retreat students that they need to remember two things: to eat what they want when they're hungry and to feel what they feel when they're not.
Geneen Roth
There's a basic feeling of lack that we want to distract ourselves from. We want to fix it by looking outside ourselves, as if it is going to fill us up.
Geneen Roth
We always want to change the channel in our minds because we don't like what's going on. It's uncomfortable.
Geneen Roth
If you treat your feelings with as much love as you treat your dog or your cat or your child you'll feel as if you were living in heaven.
Geneen Roth
What you pay attention to grows. Pay attention to your loveliness, your magnificent self. Begin now.

Healing is about being awake. Being broken and whole at the same time.
