More quotes by Shakti Gawain
Your intuition is not the same thing as your mind. In fact, intuition is really the opposite of your mind - and you need to use BOTH in living your day-to-day life.
Shakti Gawain
I think in the Western world we have gotten overly identified with doing, and we've kind of forgotten about the art of being. And we don't see value in it we think that if you're not doing something all of the time, being very active and producing something, then you're sort of wasting your time.
Shakti Gawain
Every moment presents a new opportunity and a new decision.
Shakti Gawain
An affirmation is a strong, positive statement that something is already so.
Shakti Gawain
Much of the Western world emphasizes rationality and reason, but overlooks or ignores the enormous value of intuition and instinctive wisdom.
Shakti Gawain
By viewing our relationships with friends, family, and co-workers as mirrors, as teachers - we see that they are reflecting back to us exactly what we most need to learn.
Shakti Gawain
If we look honestly at our relationships, we can see so much about how we have created them
Shakti Gawain
Mind and intuition are at opposite ends of the same continuum and our goal is to strike a healthy balance between the two.
Shakti Gawain
The process of change does not occur on superficial levels, through mere 'positive thinking.' It involves exploring, discovering, and changing our deepest, most basic attitudes toward life.
Shakti Gawain
When I'm trusting and being myself as fully as possible, everything in my life reflects this by falling into place easily, often miraculously.
Shakti Gawain
Many of us have had the attitude that life is something that happens to us and that all we can do is make the best of it. It is basically a victim's position, giving power to people and things outside of ourselves. We are beginning to realize that the power rests in us, that we can choose to create our life the way we want it to be.
Shakti Gawain
I believe we are all geniuses-each in our own unique way.
Shakti Gawain
Personal healing on all levels - physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual comes when we get in touch with our disowned energies.... Through integrating all aspects of ourselves, we become whole.
Shakti Gawain
We will discover the nature of our particular genius when we stop trying to conform to our own or other people's models, learn to be ourselves, and allow our natural channel to open.
Shakti Gawain
We always attract into our lives whatever we think about most, believe in most strongly, expect on the deepest level, and imagine most vividly.
Shakti Gawain
Every time you have a desire, in a certain sense you have a goal, something you would like to be, do, or have. Some desires are merely passing fancies, but others stay with us and go deeper. Our desires and our goals give us direction and focus. They help point us down our path of action in our life.
Shakti Gawain
Most of us are in touch with our intuition whether we know it or not, but we're usually in the habit of doubting or contradicting it so automatically that we don't even know it has spoken
Shakti Gawain
Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful
Shakti Gawain
We all have within us a deep wisdom, but sometimes we don't know we have it.
Shakti Gawain
People with little money seldom realize that people who have a lot of money are also frightened. ... If security is based on having money, it doesn't matter whether you have a little or a lot, you're going to be afraid.
