When I was a little girl I used to be able to fly, sort of. I would skip and then jump -- and stay in the air longer than I should have been able to. I never thought of it as weird until I was twenty or so, when I showed off my skill for a few people and saw their jaws drop. As soon as I registered that it was so out of norm, I stopped being able to do it. I always think about that on Halloween, as I had started to wonder if "witches on broom sticks" referred to women, like myself, who could "stay in the air too long." – Marianne Williamson
"I've learned so much from my mistakes, I'm thinking of making a few more" :)

"When you choose to only live in the past, you are subconsciously building blocks against growth & happiness in the future. When you choose to only live for 'later', your lack of gratitude towards 'now' will never see a future that's ever good enough for you. The only moment you ever live is this moment." -Tanya Alekseeva
"If you want safety, go to prison. If you want a fulfilled life, you've got to step up."

"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love." – Dr. Seuss
"There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power. They speak more eloquently than ten thousand tongues. They are messengers of overwhelming grief...and unspeakable love." -Washington Irving
"On this Easter day... forgive someone. Tell someone you love them. Do something silly. Smile like you mean it. Make your own chocolate. And then share it with all your neighbours." - Tanya Alekseeva
“The defining factor for success is never resources; it’s resourcefulness.”-Anthony Robbins
"Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible." -Dalai Lama
"There is more pain from holding on to the thought of pain than there is in the situation itself. If you let the world strike you, it will do so less cruelly than your own imagination." -Lester Levenson
"Most people consume an abundance of highly processed foods that acidify the body. As a result, they are affixed with health problems ranging from minor skin irritations, chronic fatigue, back pain, and depression to arthritis, ulcers, and osteoporosis. to enjoy optimum health, the body needs balanced quantities of alkaline and acid substances"- Christopher Vasey
"Those who think they have no time for healthy eating, will sooner or later have to find time for illness"- Edward Stanley, The Conduct of Life
"If you don't go to the toilet for a while, you become constipated, moody, grumpy and in pain. But that's just the body. Your mind needs an offload too! This has a sexy name- brain dump. So brain dump on paper any problems you are facing. Then all of a sudden, as they are vividly in front of you... solutions appear." - Tanya Alekseeva
"Health is something we do for ourselves, not something that is done to us; a journey rather than a destination; a dynamic, holistic, and purposeful way of living." -Dr. Elliott Dacher
Worrying... It's like a rocking chair- it gives you something to do but doesn't get you anywhere; it's like walking around with an open umbrella incase it rains; it's like adding poison to your own food incase you get run over by a bus first. Sound ridiculous? But isn't that exactly what we are doing?... poisoning ourselves?
"Never regret anything. You can't change or undo what happened, but you can control how you deal with it in the present moment and use your experience to shape the future". - Tanya Alekseeva
"Always give 100% in everything you do in life. (apart from perhaps- giving blood)"

"The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." -Mark Twain
"Act as though and it shall be. The seed you sow today will not produce crop till tomorrow. For this reason, your identity does not lie in your current results. This is not who you are. Your current results are who you were." – James A. Ray
"Don't let the commercialisation of Valentine's Day let you believe you don't have something others do. Remember LOVE is where you came from, why are you still looking for it?" - Tanya Alekseeva

"For every emotion you experience the opposite emotion is repressed, because believe it or not, we are not here for happiness, which is a mask, we are not here for sadness, which is a mask, we are here for gratitude and love, which is the truth. When you have gratitude and love, you also become certain and present, and experience the four greatest healers on the planet, I call them the four cardinal pillars of healing."
"the mind is like a parachute, it works best when it is opened"
"The enzymes contained in raw food actually aid in the digestion of that same food when it is chewed. One can live many years on a cooked food diet, but eventually this will cause cellular enzyme exhaustion which lays the foundation for a weak immune system and ultimately disease.” -Dr. Humbart Santillo
"It is not what happens to you that counts as much as how you perceive it. You can either be a victim of your history or a master of your destiny just by changing your perspective. One of the greatest discoveries in human nature is that you change your life by changing your perspectives and attitudes of mind."
"I decided that having a squeaky clean kitchen is actually dangerous... every time I put everything away and shine every last corner, it inspires me to get all the ingredients back out and start creating recipes until four hours pass by in a flash. Yep that happens often." -Tanya Alekseeva
"When you feel your ugliest, someone else will give up anything to look the way you do...
When you feel stupid, someone else will give up anything to take on your mistake instead of theirs...
While you tease and pass judgement, someone else will give up anything just to be able to see...
When you feel like a failure, someone else will give up anything to have the life you live...
When you are grateful and know how to count your blessings, you create an energy field around you, which improves the lives of everyone that comes near it... near you."
- Tanya Alekseeva
