While overeating would be seen by some as an indulgence of self, it is in fact a profound rejection of self. It is a moment of self-betrayal and self-punishment, and anything but a commitment to one's own well-being.

More quotes by Marianne Williamson
My father was a deeply committed humanitarian. He was a fighter for social justice. He was spirited in the deepest sense.
Marianne Williamson
You are emerging from the cocoon of your former self. There are no limits to the extent of the transformation that's possible for you.
Marianne Williamson
As we become purer channels for God's light, we develop an appetite for the sweetness that is possible in this world. A miracle worker is not geared toward fighting the world that is, but toward creating the world that could be.
Marianne Williamson
Take stock of your thoughts and behavior. Each night ask yourself, when were you negative when you could have been positive? When did you withhold love when you might have given it? When did you play a neurotic game instead of behaving in a powerful way? Use this process to self-correct.
Marianne Williamson
Problems come about when we try to direct the flow of the universe rather than allow it to reveal its own design. Inherent in that design is a love for all living things.
Marianne Williamson
There is no peace without forgiveness.
Marianne Williamson
A level of anxiety and tension and outright fear that so many people have felt, not only during the recession but during this slow economic recovery since. This made me very much want to up the conversation about how miracle-minded thinking applies to that area of life.
Marianne Williamson
With every thought we think, we either summon or block a miracle.
Marianne Williamson
Instead of praying: 'Dear God, bring me someone fabulous,' try: 'Dear God, make me into someone fabulous.'
Marianne Williamson
For what we engage, we transform. And what we engage with our hearts is transformed forever.
Marianne Williamson
We love purely when we release other people to be who they are.
Marianne Williamson
I'm better than I used to be. Better than I was yesterday. But hopefully not as good as I'll be tomorrow.
Marianne Williamson
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
Marianne Williamson
There are clearly times when quieting down and bringing our energy back into ourselves is a step toward inner peace. Yet the most powerful life is not one in which we bring ourselves back to our center when we have spun away from it, but rather one in which we seek to live from that center at all times.
Marianne Williamson
The work of intimacy, of course, is to learn to both show your own illumination, and to see it in a way that the physical eyes cannot reveal. In a way that only the heart can reveal: the illumined beauty in another person.
Marianne Williamson
Always be open to new beginnings. To the universe, every moment is the start of the next big thing in your life.
Marianne Williamson
Enlightenment doesn't mean we were never wounded it means we've found a way to evolve beyond our wounds. Enlightenment isn't idealistic it's practical. What's idealistic is thinking we can live from our wounds, stay in our weakness, and ever transform the world.
Marianne Williamson
When you understand the law of divine compensation, you realize that in the presence of spiritual consciousness, there is more than enough compensation for any diminishment in materiality.
Marianne Williamson
When a woman rises up in glory, her energy is magnetic and her sense of possibility contagious.
Marianne Williamson
We were born with a natural tendency to focus on love. Our imaginations were creative and flourishing, and we knew how to use them. We were connected to a richer world, a world full of enchantment and a sense of the miraculous. What happened?
