More quotes by Shakti Gawain
What I am actually saying is that we need to be willing to let our intuition guide us, and then be willing to follow that guidance directly and fearlessly.
Shakti Gawain
Every creative genius has been a channel. Every masterwork has been created through the channeling process. Great works are not created by the personality alone. They arise from a deep inspiration on the universal level, and are then expressed and brought into form through the individual personality.
Shakti Gawain
We don't have in our culture a healthy understanding and respect for the value of Being, which is simply being present in the moment, not trying to go somewhere, not trying to accomplish anything but, just present.
Shakti Gawain
To whatever degree you listen and follow your intuition, you become a creative channel for the higher power of the universe.
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
We live in a culture that doesn't acknowledge or validate human intuition and doesn't encourage us to rely on our intuitive wisdom.
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
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
One law of energy is this: energy of a certain quality or vibration tends to attract energy of a similar quality and vibration.
Shakti Gawain
Everyone we attract into our life is a mirror for us in certain ways. All of our relationships reflect certain parts of us. We all attract certain people into our life who have developed qualities opposite to the ones we are most identified with. In other words, they mirror our disowned selves, and we mirror theirs.
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
Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful
Shakti Gawain
Our bodies communicate to us clearly and specifically, if we are willing to listen to them.
Shakti Gawain
Everything in the universe wants to be loved and accepted. Our personal work is to find the love and acceptance within ourselves.
Shakti Gawain
Work and play can be the same. When you are following your energy and doing what you want to do all the time, the distinction between work and play dissolves. Work is no longer what you have to do, and play what you want to do. When you are doing what you love, you may work harder and produce more than ever before, because you are having fun.
Shakti Gawain
There is a universal, intelligent, life force that exists within everyone and everything. It resides within each one of use as a deep wisdom, an inner knowing. We can access this wonderful source of knowledge and wisdom through our intuition, an inner sense that tells us what feels right and true for us at any given moment.
Shakti Gawain
The people we are in relationships with are always a mirror, reflecting our own beliefs, and simultaneously we are mirrors, reflecting their beliefs.
Shakti Gawain
One of the reasons there may be a trend toward moving out of the cities, again, it may be conscious or it may be unconscious, but it is a desire to connect more with nature. And with the natural rhythms. We [people] need that! We've been missing it.
Shakti Gawain
When we consistently suppress and distrust our intuitive knowingness, looking instead for authority, validation, and approval from others, we give our personal power away.
Shakti Gawain
We can learn to move into the unknown with the confidence that we have a guiding force within us that is showing us the way.
