The more you condemn yourself for thinking or feeling a certain way, the more you feel stuck within your own body and mind.. What if you went the other way and embraced it so totally that it was as if there was never any alternative experience to be reached for? What happens when the conflict ends? Adam Oakley
About This Quote

I think we all encounter times when we need to stop and consciously choose how we feel about something, whether it is a choice we want to make or not. In those moments, what if we didn’t condemn ourselves for having a certain thought but embraced it so totally that the idea of an alternative experience was reached for? What would happen if the conflict of feeling stuck or of not being able to make a choice ended?
