Science and Spirituality | Body and Mind: Let the Tide Come In

Most of us were only ever taught to manage things. To perform okay. To say “I’m fine” on autopilot until we actually believed it, or at least stopped questioning it. But the body keeps an honest record of everything our mouths agreed to leave behind…

The psychological and the spiritual aren’t competing systems. Together they create a full circuit, either feeding or starving us. The longest-process things on the list of human emotions aren’t longer because they’re more powerful. They’re longer because someone kept interrupting the process.

The Battle Within, The Rest Beyond | Spiritual Foundations for Healing

Healing is hard because it is a constant battle between your inner child, who is scared and just wants safety; your inner teenager, who is angry and just wants justice; and your current self, who is tired and just wants peace.

Science & Spirituality | The Song Glass Will Never Know: Why Crystal Costs More
