More quotes by Laura Huxley
Service or giving is the other side of receiving. Giving and receiving is a full circle: a full circle feels more natural than a half circle.
Laura Huxley
I believe more in concrete spirituality rather than in a spirituality that is divided from the body and from nature.
Laura Huxley
There is danger in everything that we do.
Laura Huxley
Toddlers are so powerful and so egocentric and teenagers are also so powerful, so egocentric.
Laura Huxley
I think that, at least in my experience, it is difficult when there is unfinished work. That makes it difficult to think of dying when what you have to do is not quite done. Of course it's never quite done.
Laura Huxley
Everything has to come through the senses, as though the soul is speaking out through the senses.
Laura Huxley
The practice of yoga certainly is a fantastic practice. I only wish I would do it more. I find I can do it alone but it is much better if I have some guidance. Although I can do it alone it is a little bit sloppy. Ultimately, all of those techniques try to bring more oxygen to the brain. We can think and love better if we have more oxygen.
Laura Huxley
If you decide that you are making love to have a child then you are to prepare. Prepare physiologically, spiritually, and know that you have enough money to give him what you have to give him.
Laura Huxley
One asana is strong, then again another is very soft and gentle. So you have this modulation from one asana to another, just as you have from one feeling to another. Then they all, of course, make you lighter, give you space. I feel that space is what I get and receive and like to have - space inside which makes more space for openness outside.
Laura Huxley
Love your heart. It really is to love yourself to begin with and help everybody else in doing the same. But the heart being the center.
Laura Huxley
Be a little kinder to each other.
Laura Huxley
Probably, the secret is to be less complicated. We of course love to make complications - look at the way we live. We have this tremendous amount of information, and probably it is really not so necessary. Maybe if you just drink water, you are kind to people and walk a little bit it's all done already. But we cannot resist this sophistication.
Laura Huxley
Beauty, well, it's one of the greatest, greatest gifts. I feel sorry sometimes because people are so worried and so involved in something that they don't have even five minutes to look at something beautiful.
Laura Huxley
What I say is focus your mind and respect your body. But mostly love your heart. I think that is where to begin, from there and then it goes out.
Laura Huxley
Since I was young my wish has been to die in perfect health - I mean to die with a body that is not destroyed by illness but a body that is consumed by its own long burning fire.
Laura Huxley
You can focus your mind. You can respect your body. All of that is important.
Laura Huxley
My first psychedelic experience with Aldous still directs my life today.
Laura Huxley
The art of living is simply the art of using energy in an intelligent and creative way.
Laura Huxley
Whoever uses psychedelics should treat them with greatest respect. When Aldous and I used them, we prepared the ambience and ourselves the day before. The day of the session was kept as a holy day, and there were beautiful fruits and flowers around. The result was, that we had no negative experiences.
Laura Huxley
The difference between a good medicine and a poison is the dosage.
Laura Huxley
