Teal Swan: Citáty anglicky (strana 11)

“Your EMOTIONS are also the doorway to discovering the subconscious limitations you have which are preventing your happiness in life. Not being in touch with your emotions in life is similar to being stranded in a foreign wilderness without a compass.”

“It is important to make sure that the reason your inner compass is pointing the way it is pointing, is both conscious and something you can consciously align with.”

“When you follow your emotional guidance system with the awareness that your inner compass can be ‘faulty’ you will be able to question yourself in the spirit of curiosity and the desire to be totally aware… You will ask yourself WHY something feels good to do.”

“Your desires do not control you any more than a compass can control you. But ignoring, denying or trying to change a compass to say what you would rather it say, tends to have drastic consequences.”

“The inner compass is designed to lead you in the direction of what is in your best interests. But just because something is in your best interests does not mean that it will necessarily be pleasurable.”

“The current way that people make their relationship last is by adopting dysfunction and adapting to dysfunction.”

“Negating negatives with positives is a form of toxic positivity.”

“It doesn't work to compromise in a relationship because a person can’t give up something that they value (and thus give up what really matters to them) without experiencing pain that eventually causes disharmony in the relationship.”

“By ignoring truth and by creating YOUR OWN reality, you can turn yourself into a cancer cell within the collective and within the universe at large.”

“Hell on Earth is a world where there are over 7 billion people and most of them feel completely alone.”

“It is tempting to think that the majority of relationships are functional and that dysfunctional relationships are the rarity. But the reverse is actually true. Most relationships between people on earth today fall somewhere on the scale of dysfunction.”

“Relationships are the central part of life and also the hardest part of life and yet our schools teach us a minimum of 13 years of math and science and geography and history, but nothing about relationships and how to make them work.”

“Relationships involve the inevitability of rupture. The degree of security and joy felt within a relationship is about our capacity to create repair.”

“To build a secure relationship, caretake the insecurity and unsafety of the other person in the relationship. And recognize when you feel insecure or unsafe in your relationship so that you can very quickly initiate re-establishing security and safety with the other person.”

“When you notice anger kick in, you must slow way down and attend to the vulnerability, the pain and the fear and the perceived powerlessness underneath it.”

“Just because you think something is normal, does not mean it is healthy, does not mean it is right and does not mean it is good.”

“Be workable all you can in a relationship, but do not compromise.”

“The worst thing you could ever do to someone from a position of authority is to turn them against themselves. The worst thing you could do is to make them believe that it is wrong to feel how they feel and so something must be wrong with them. It is not malice that makes 'therapists' do this. It is ignorance. But it is ignorance that must end. And I will dedicate myself to ending that ignorance for as long as I draw breath.”

“The most common reason that relationships fall apart is because of safety. On a subconscious level, even though our relationships grant us a sense of safety, if we perceive that something about a relationship makes us unsafe, we care more about our own safety than we care about the other person’s experience and we care more about our own safety than we care about the health of the relationship itself.”
