More quotes by Shakti Gawain
Our bodies communicate to us clearly and specifically, if we are willing to listen to them.
Shakti Gawain
When I wrote Living in the Light, I wanted to share about how I live my own life and to encourage people to tap into their own inner wisdom.
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
No scoundrel is so stupid as to not find a reason for his vile conduct.
Shakti Gawain
We may overcompensate for our feelings of powerlessness by attempting to control and manipulate other people and our environment. Or we may eventually burst forth with uncontrolled rage that is highly exaggerated and distorted by its long suppression.
Shakti Gawain
Notice what happens when you follow your intuitive feelings. The result is usually increased energy and power, and a sense of things flowing.
Shakti Gawain
Listening to your internal guidance system will lead to a rich, fulfilled, happy life. That's been my experience... and millions of folks can attest to it in their own lives as well.
Shakti Gawain
We shouldn't ignore any guidance that comes from the mind - we should listen to our minds AND balance mental messages with intuitive messages. We need both to navigate our way through life.
Shakti Gawain
Whatever our individual troubles and challenges may be, it’s important to pause every now and then to appreciate all that we have, on every level. We need to literally 'count our blessings,' give thanks for them, allow ourselves to enjoy them, and relish the experience of prosperity we already have.
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
When you see beauty anywhere, it's a reflection of yourself.
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
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.
Shakti Gawain
Not being in touch with your vulnerability and not learning to own it and accept it and be comfortable with it leaves you in a position where you're liable to look at and judge other people for being vulnerable because they're reflecting that part of yourself that you're not comfortable with.
Shakti Gawain
As long as we focus on the outside, there will always be that empty, hungry, lost place inside that needs to be filled.
Shakti Gawain
The most powerful thing you can do to change the world is to change your own beliefs about the nature of life, people, and reality to something more positive... and begin to act accordingly.
Shakti Gawain
You create your opportunities by asking for them.
Shakti Gawain
We are attracted to people who express the qualities we deny or repress in ourselves.
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
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
