Surrender is a positive, healthy state. Being a surrendered person does not mean one is beaten down and so hopeless he or she has given up. It's quite the contrary.

More quotes by Judith Orloff
Friends can be the best co-conspirators in charting the unknown.
Judith Orloff
We have two choices when things pile up at work or we're surrounded by energy vampires who leave us feeling depleted. We can get frantic, hyperventilate, shut down, and become reactive. Needless to say, these responses to stress just make us more stressed. Surrendered people have the ability to pause, take a deep breath, and observe.
Judith Orloff
Surrender to life today. Don't fight anything. Just enjoy the flow.
Judith Orloff
We energetically attract what we haven't worked out in ourselves. When vampires evoke intensely judgmental reactions from us, it could be they are mirroring aspects of our personalities we don't like or completely understand.
Judith Orloff
Creativity is the mother of all energies, nurturer of your most alive self. It charges up every part of you. When you're plugged in, a spontaneous combustion occurs that 'artists' don't have a monopoly on.
Judith Orloff
Surrendered people understand that they can’t always change a situation, especially when the door is shut. They don’t try to force it open. Instead, they pay attention to their own behavior, look at the situation at hand, and find a new, different, and creative way to get beyond the obstacles. They are comfortable with uncertainty.
Judith Orloff
If you want to surrender to creativity, surrender to creation.
Judith Orloff
Your soul mate can turn into your cell mate if the mutual desire for growth isn't there.
Judith Orloff
Relationships carry the whole universe within them. They can be everything, nothing, here, then gone. One moment, loving someone makes you shine the next, it feels like matter and antimatter colliding.
Judith Orloff
People who feel the need to push and control tend to keep their feelings bottled up. As a result, they get shut down or remote, and their feelings come out in twisted, unhealthy ways. They become irritable, passive-aggressive, or volatile, for example.
Judith Orloff
The most influential person in the room isn't the one who is being a bully, talking loudly, and imposing him- or herself on others. Surrendered people understand that true power comes from being respectful and listening.
Judith Orloff
Energy never lies. If you work at your right rhythm, you will be more productive trust me.
Judith Orloff
Beyond surfaces, you must be intuitively at ease.
Judith Orloff
Flow is letting nothing obstruct the breath. Practice flow through a complete exhale in every way in your being.
Judith Orloff
Words ride on the energy of tone, its warmth or coldness think of tone as the music of how words are expressed. You want this music to be soulful, whether you're giving sweet talk or tough love.
Judith Orloff
An (emotional) vampire goes in for the kill by stirring up your emotions. Pushing your buttons throws you off center, which renders you easier to drain. Of all the emotional types, empaths are often the most devestated.
Judith Orloff
Every illness is an opportunity for compassionate revelations.
Judith Orloff
Illness sets the stage for the opening of our hearts.
Judith Orloff
Surrendered people make great lovers. They can be spontaneous and playful. They love to feel and express all of their emotions. They look vibrant, healthy, and energetic.
Judith Orloff
The art of communicating is to speak with a non judging sensitivity and mean it rather than impulsively verbalizing whatever feelings arise there's no better way to make a point.
