“A hammer is just a hammer. But it’s you, by way of your intention, that either uses it to build something or destroy something.”

“We’re always surrounded by natural patterns, but when there’s a moment of tension, it means that there’s resistance at play, and that might or might not be conscious. It’s really a resistance to the flow of movement that’s occurring around us and within us.”

“A tree isn’t always sprouting new leaves. There’s a time in which it almost looks dead. And, it’s going to come back to life, and that’s exactly as it should be, because nothing is permanent, it’s in constant flux.”

“When we view our lives through this binary lens of good or bad, or good or evil, then we can lose sight of that constant ebb and flow that’s actually much more nuanced and impermanent.”

“I think of rituals as way of remembering because ultimately the state that we aspire to access isn’t something new, it’s not something foreign. It’s not taking ourselves somewhere we’ve never been. It’s a returning to.”
