“If our hearts are ready for anything, we are touched by the beauty and poetry and mystery that fill our world.”

With mindfulness training we are able to recognize when we get lost in our mental dramas, and bring a kind and nonreactive presence to the feelings that accompany them.

Extend an act of kindness each day. No one has to know. It can be a smile, reassuring words, a small favor – without expecting something in return.

On this sacred path of Radical Acceptance, rather than striving for perfection, we discover how to love ourselves into wholeness.

When we open to love, we become love.

Fear of being a flawed person lay at the root of my trance, and I had sacrificed many moments over the years in trying to prove my worth. Like the tiger Mohini, I inhabited a self-made prison that stopped me from living fully.

Perhaps the biggest tragedy of our lives is that freedom is possible, yet we can pass our years trapped in the same old patterns.

In a basic way, acceptance is seeing clearly what’s happening and holding it with kindness. This is a radical antidote to the suffering of judging mind.

Our attitude in the face of life’s challenges determines our suffering or our freedom.

Become a witness to your thoughts.

Happiness lies not in finding what is missing, but in finding what is present.

Radical Acceptance is the willingness to experience ourselves and our lives as it is.

Imperfection is not our personal problem – it is a natural part of existing.

Emotions are the interaction of thoughts and of sensations in the body.

When we relax about imperfection, we no longer lose our life moments in the pursuit of being different and in the fear of what is wrong.

The boundary to what we can accept is the boundary to our freedom.

By regarding ourselves with kindness, we begin to dissolve the identity of an isolated, deficient self. This creates the grounds for including others in an unconditionally loving heart.

If I can, I love staying in pajamas all day and watching movies and eating good food.

I think confidence is a true form of beauty.

The fans always tell me im beautiful but I always tell them that no one will ever be as beautiful as them

I never thought of becoming an actress, but I always dreamt of winning a beauty pageant, and I achieved that.

Fans always tell me I’m beautiful, but no one will ever be as beautiful as them

Erykah Badu – she’s timeless, that’s my second mom.

May I ask your name, my lady? Or perhaps angels have no names, only beautiful faces.

The sadness in her eyes was more beautiful than any sunrise.
