More quotes by Martha Beck
Truth itself is something you live, not something you think.
Martha Beck
If a problem looks difficult, relax. If it looks impossible, relax even more. Then begin encouraging small changes, putting just enough pressure on yourself to move one turtle step forward. Then rest, savor, celebrate. Then step again. You’ll find that slow is fast, gentle is powerful, and stillness moves mountains.
Martha Beck

Martha Beck

Martha Beck
Here is the crux of the matter, the distilled essence, the only thing you need to remember: When considering whether to say yes or no, you must choose the response that feels like freedom. Period.
Martha Beck
Make stuff up. Anyone who ever did something new or interesting was making it up as they went along.
