Animal intuitives can diagnose an animal’s physical health problems by listening to the animals.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Money, financial matters were to help people, to help them survive, not to have a bigger house or a bigger car and that sort of thing, because I hear that from so many kids, they often don’t know why their father won’t spend more time with them.

BERNIE SIEGEL -

BERNIE SIEGEL -
I truly feel the best doctors are ones who are criticized by nurses, patients and family. They do not make excuses and learn from their mistakes.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
I love how Mother Theresa said she wouldn’t attend an anti-war rally but if there was a peace rally to call her. So I realized it’s not about waging a war against everybody’s disease and diagnosis but rather about helping them live.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Remember that an act of love always benefits at least two people.
BERNIE SIEGEL -
Whenever you get around to doing what you want to do, it will be now. The things you need to do to live a happier, more fulfilling life-the only time you can possible start doing them is now.
