Feelings Quote by Ritu Ghatourey
“Feelings are like the phone ringing. A message is trying to get through. ALL FEELINGS, whether positive or negative, are an important part of our bodys intelligence because they introduce us to these deeper felt meanings. Paying attention to our feelings is one of the best ways to help us learn who we are and whats right for us. Too often, we put such feelings aside and rely more on what we see and hear. It is our emotions, our intuition, that have something to tell us. Our feelings through bodies can teach us--if we are quietly prepared to . . . listen and learn!”
