My ego is but a tool designed to make me one of a kind… making peace with it helps me to ease its hold on my heart. The more I judge it...

This is the greatest gift I can bestow upon myself and yet the most illusive. ~YAV

Don’t speak what you do not mean, or promise what you can not fulfill. ~YAV

Trapped in a web of self deception, further and further away from my truth. I scream and no one hears me. ~YAV

My life’s purpose is to stop my mind from running wild! This is the most difficult job of all. ~YAV

The path of self awareness and personal responsibility can only be walked by the seeker… In this way it is a lonely path. ~YAV

Asking “why” from an unconscious place carries a heavy price… Can I afford to ask myself the Why question? ~YAV

The hardest battle I will ever fight is the one that I fight within myself! ~YAV

Following my breath deep into my belly helps me connect with my body. Lingering there, I find that time slows down. ~YAV
