We are vibrations of energy…

• Be-and yet know the great void where all things begin, the infinite source of your own most intense vibration, so that, this once, you may give it your perfect assent. Rainer Maria Rilke
• One’s whole being vibrates like strings brushed by an invisible wind. Peter Russell
• Everything in the Universe, including you, is pure energy vibrating at different frequencies. Tania Kotsos 
• When we realise everything is energy, we learn we have the capacity to harness energy in many different creative ways. Anthony Lambert
• God made us angels of energy, encased in solids – currents of life dazzling through a material bulb of flesh. Paramahansa Yogananda

.

…particularly our consciousness which is what we essentially are

• The more godlike our vibrations, the more godlike the realms and states of consciousness we experience — and vice versa. David Sunfellow
• The degree of consciousness corresponds to the degree of density or the speed of vibrations. The denser the matter, the less conscious it is. I. Gurdjieff
• It’s good to remember often, every day, that you are not a physical creature in a physical universe; but a non-physical consciousness vibrating at a certain frequency. You are Consciousness having a state of being, that’s it. Everything else you perceive is simply an illusory crystallization of your chosen vibration. You are the Creator of your life, in this way. Bentinho
• Your dreams are not just the rearrangement of memory. They are the vibrations of your consciousness. Guide them and go for the higher one. Amit Ray
• Spiritual energy-the energy that comes from pure consciousness-is the creative energy of the universe. Deepak Chopra
• Consciousness equals energy = love = awareness = light = wisdom = beauty = truth = purity. It’s all the same trip. Ram Dass
• Consciousness regulates and becomes the flow of energy and information in your body, your relationships, and your world. Deepak Chopra
• I know there’s a consciousness energy that operates completely independent of the physical body you inhabit, that maintains… awareness after the body’s gone. Phoebe Snow

• Energy and consciousness are in a continual state of interaction: energy is shaped and directed by consciousness which is itself driven by energy. John Pierrakos
• When your consciousness becomes a still mirror, a still lake, a silent reservoir of energy, God is reflected in it. Rajneesh
• Every single person has within an ocean of pure vibrant consciousness. Every single human being can experience that – infinite intelligence, infinite creativity, infinite happiness, infinite energy, infinite dynamic peace. David Lynch
• Spirit is the essence of consciousness, the energy of the universe that creates all things. Each one of us is a part of that spirit – a divine entity. So the spirit is the higher self, the eternal being that lives within us. Shakti Gawain

.

Our very bodies are nothing but a flow of energy…

• In the past few decades, there has been a revolution in how we perceive the body. What appears to be an object, a three-dimensional anatomical structure, is actually a process, a constant flow of energy and information. Deepak Chopra
• It is easier to wiggle the toes than reset the biological clock, but that is just a belief that is rooted in superstition. If we could understand that the human body is a network of information and energy, then we would see that the same principles apply everywhere in the body. Deepak Chopra
• While most people are conditioned to see the body as a biological machine, you can begin to view it as a field of energy, transformation, and intelligence that is constantly renewing itself. Begin to notice both your internal dialogue and how you speak about your body and aging. Deepak Chopra
• The body is made up of atoms and subatomic particles that are moving at lightning speed around huge empty spaces and the body gives off fluctuations of energy and information in a huge void, so essentially your body is proportionately as void as intergalactic space, made out of nothing, but the nothing is actually the source of information and energy. Deepak Chopra

.

…energy that connects with the energy of the universe

• Once we open up to the flow of energy within our body, we can also open up to the flow of energy in the universe. Wilhelm Reich
• The energy of life entering and leaving your body flows evenly throughout the universe. With that current, the mind of the cosmos communicates with all things. Ilchi Lee
• The shaman does not believe in a division between the body and the spirit or between the visible world of form and the invisible world of energy Alberto Villoldo

Our very life force is the energy that flows through us

• There is a life-force within your soul, seek that life. Rumi
• Who are we? We are the life-force power of the universe. Jill Bolte Taylor
• We are the living links in a life force that moves and plays around and through us, binding the deepest soils with the farthest stars. Alan Chadwick
• Positive energy is your priceless life force. Protect it. Don’t allow people to draw from your reserves; select friends who recharge your energies . Chalene Johnson
• The life force is vigorous. The delight that accompanies it counter-balances all the pains and hardships that confront men. It makes life worth living. Somerset Maugham
• Though the Life Force supplies us with its own purpose, it has no other brains to work with than those it has painfully and imperfectly evolved in our heads. George Bernard Shaw
• I am the life-force power of the universe. I am the life-force power of the 50 trillion beautiful molecular geniuses that make up my form, at one with all that is. Jill Bolte Taylor
• You need energy and life force to see and feel what you need to do. Otherwise you are in a dark room and you can’t tell what’s going on. You need to practice n
• Frederick Lenz
• There is a vitality, a life force, an energy, a quickening, that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. Martha Graham
• The consciousness and life force do what they want…one minute they put energy to repairing the damaged wing of a butterfly and the next minute they send a whole town crushing with tremendous force… who can work it out? Mooji
• In India’s spiritual tradition, the life force is known as prana; in China, chi (also spelled qi). The ancient Egyptians referred to it as ka; the Greeks, pneuma. In Judaism, the life force is known as ruach; in Christianity, spiritus. Joseph Selbie
• There is a vitality, a life force, a quickening that is translated through you into action, and because there is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique, and if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium, and be lost. Martha Graham
• I am alive, he says to himself, I am alive! And life energy surges hotly through him, and delight, and appetite. How good to be in a body – even this old beat-up carcass – that still has warm blood and live semen and rich marrow and wholesome flesh! Christopher Isherwood
• We might think of such energy as the life force of the universe. Its power is of and for life. If we can speak of any directing purpose, it is for life. The universe keeps going, both in the sense of constant motion and dynamism but also in the sense that life seeks life. Life is ongoing. Flora A. Keshgegian
• Despite not being able to perceive the interpenetrating subtle energy with our five senses, to one degree or another we are all aware of it. The experiential religious traditions of the world—from yoga to Sufism, to charismatic Christianity, to tai chi—call these subtle energies life force. Working with life force is the heart of many alternative healing methods. Joseph Selbie

There is a deep well of energy in our own inner being

• There is a well of infinity hidden within each Soul. There you will find an incredible energy source, beyond your broadest understanding. It is Light and Healing. The Force of Nature. The essence of Love. Royce Addington
• You each have the same energy and it sings within you. You need not be shy of it, it is your own. You need not look to gurus, or Gods, or Seths. It dwells within your own being. Seth- Jane Roberts
• How much longer will you go on letting your energy sleep? How much longer are you going to stay oblivious of the immensity of yourself? Rajneesh
• A human being is the kind of machine that wears out from lack of use. There are limits, of course, and we do need healthful rest and relaxation, but for the most part we gain energy by using energy… It might well be that all of us possess enormous stores of potential energy, more than we could ever hope to use. George Leonard
• You have enormous untapped power you’ll probably never tap, because most people never run far enough on their first wind to ever find they have a second. William James
• The human body is a machine which winds its own springs. Julien Offroy de la Mettrie
• Because the development of inner calm and energy happens completely within and isn’t dependent on another person or a particular situation, we begin to feel a resourcefulness and independence that is quite beautiful – and a huge relief. Sharon Salzberg

.

The energy in us represents our vast potential and power…

• Do you know how much energy, how many powers, how many forces, are still lurking behind that frame of yours? What scientist has known all that is in man? Millions of years have passed since man came here, and yet but one infinitesimal part of his powers has been manifested. Therefore, you must not say that you are weak. How do you know what possibilities lie behind that degradation on the surface? You know but little of that which is within you. For behind you is the ocean of infinite power and blessedness. Swami Vivekananda
• Everybody has the same energy potential. The average person wastes his in a dozen little ways. I bring mine to bear on one thing only: my paintings, and everything else is sacrificed to it…myself included. Pablo Picasso
• How much longer will you go on letting your energy sleep? How much longer are you going to stay oblivious of the immensity of yourself? Rajneesh
• I see all this talent, all this…this energy and brightness and…potential. Yes. Potential. And I cannot for the life of me see how you can be content to live this tiny life. This life that will take place almost entirely within a five mile radius and contain nobody who will ever surprise you or push you or show you things that will leave your head spinning and unable to sleep at night. Jojo Moyes
• Ideas. Possibilities. So many! How can I choose? Between bursts of lightning-swift energy, I enjoy peaceful moments when the whole world seems to be a flowing river of verse and all I have to do is learn how to swim. Margarita Engle
• Realize that enough hidden strength lies within you to overcome all obstacles and temptations. Bring forth that indomitable power and energy. Paramahansa Yogananda
• Incredible amounts of energy are hidden in your brain; enough in a gram of flesh to run the city of Chicago for 2 days.  And you say you are tired? Paramahansa Yogananda
• Let yourself be loved, O Beloved, in the One. And from this One move out into the world, carrying within you the great potent energies of life to green your world, to create planets, suns, stars, stones, waves, oceans, to create new forms of life and expression – whether a friendship, a feeling or a new form of vocation. Rumi
• It’s nice to think that we have in ourselves the energy. It’s somewhere, but it’s sleeping sometimes. I try to wake it up when I need it. Agnes Varda

• God is a frequency. Stay tuned. Alan Cohen
• I believe in divine forces and energies. Richard Pryor
• I believe in god as a form of universal energy. Tanushree Dutta
• That energy field can be called God, soul, spirit, or consciousness. Wayne Dyer
• I think God is a giant vibrator in the sky … a pulsating force of incredible energy. David Arquette
• Every volcano is a powerful illustration of God’s character. He is a Vesuvius of goodness, life, and energy. Reinhard Bonnke
• Is the god the source, or is the god a human manner of conceiving of the force and energy that supports the world? Joseph Campbell
• The universe, God and souls are pure, positive energy of Light and Love. This is not religion. This is quantum physics. Sheralyn Braegger
• I do believe in God. I don’t believe in God as a person, but I believe in God as a state of energy and consciousness that we all share. David Dobkin
• Om is the mysterious cosmic energy that is the substratum of all the things and all the being of the entire universe. It is the eternal song of the Divine. Amit Ray
• Oneness of the Divine. It may be given a thousand names such as The Primary Cause / God / Energy / I. All that is created has its Self this Oneness. Sathya Sai Baba
• Whether you call the principle of existence “God,” “matter,” “energy,” or anything else you like, you have created nothing; you have merely changed a symbol. Carl Jung
• The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us and penetrates us. It binds the galaxy together. Alec Guinness
• We don’t really, in Hindu tradition, have a father figure of a God. It’s about cosmic energy, a little spark of which is inside every individual as the soul. Bharati Mukherjee
• Everything is made of energy. And at the core of this energy is Alpha and Omega, the Father-Mother light, the energy that is the source of life on earth. Elizabeth Clare Prophet
• God is to me that creative force, behind and in the universe, who manifests Himself as energy, as life, as order, as beauty, as thought, as conscience, as love. Henry Sloane Coffin
• God to me is love. It’s the ruler of all things, whether it’s with a person or with music or with your TV. I feel like it’s this energy. God is energy, love is energy. Kendrick Lamar
• God is the very creative energy of existence – creativity rather than a creator. He is not the poet but the poetry, not the dancer but the dance, not the flower but the fragrance. Rajneesh
• God is more than you imagine. God is the energy you call imagination. God is creation. God is first thought. And God is last experience. And God is everything in between. Neale Donald Walsch
• I define God as an energy. A spiritual energy. It has no denomination, it has no judgment, it has an energy that when we’re connected to it we know why we’re here and what we’re here to do. Debbie Ford
• I know that what you call ‘God’ really exists, but not in the form you think; God is primal cosmic energy, the love in your body, your integrity, and your perception of the nature in you and outside of you. Wilhelm Reich
• To me, God is an intelligent, loving, conscious energy and why do I say that? Well you need energy to create. You have to have a source. It’s undifferentiated energy which has intelligence or it couldn’t create. Bernie Siegel

.

God is the energy within us…

• God made us angels of energy, encased in solids – currents of life dazzling through a material bulb of flesh. Paramahansa Yogananda
• Now I know that this energy within me is seeking more than the mate or the profession or the religion – more even than pleasure or power or meaning. It is seeking more of me; or better, it is, thank God, releasing more of me. Hugh Prather
• God intended Earth. God intended the waters. God intended you and me. We were created in the image and the likeness of God; we are holograms, if you will. So the power, the presence, the energy is within you and me. The energy of God, as life, is within each of us. Mary Manin Morrissey
• What the equation is saying is that there is a huge amount – a really huge amount – of energy bound up in every material thing. You may not feel outstandingly robust, but if you are an average-sized adult you will contain within your modest frame no less than 7 × 1018 joules of potential energy – enough to explode with the force of thirty very large hydrogen bombs, assuming you knew how to liberate it and really wished to make a point. Everything has this kind of energy trapped within it. Even a uranium bomb – the most energetic thing we have produced yet – releases less than 1 per cent of the energy it could release if only we were more cunning. Bill Bryson
• I cannot prove to you that God exists, but my work has proved empirically that the pattern of God exists in every man and that this pattern in the individual has at its disposal the greatest transforming energies of which life is capable. Find this pattern in your own individual self and life is transformed. Carl Jung

.

…and we are one with the energy that is God

• I now understood more fully why we don’t feel our Oneness with God moment to moment, constantly, while on the earth plane. We feel separated because of our physical bodies; we think we ARE the body and are therefore physical, yet we know that God is Spirit. Thus the sense of separation. In both worlds there is nothing but energy, invisible and visible; we are spiritual beings wherever we may be. We are energy and God is energy, and energy cannot be broken up or separated. Born of God, we are spirit, and cannot be anything else. All is mind – one mind. We are that mind asleep – yet awakening, and God is that mind eternally aware. Jan Price

.

God is the energy that surrounds us…

• I think God surrounds us, in all different manifestations of the energy. Ziggy Marley
• Arrange photographs of nature scenes, animals and expressions of joy and love in your environment and let their energy radiate into your heart and provide you with their higher frequency. Wayne Dyer

.

…and the energy field between us

• There is an energy field between humans. And, when we reach out in passion, it is met with an answering passion and changes the relationship forever. Rollo May
• When two people relate to each other authentically and humanly, God is the electricity that surges between them. Martin Buber
• Whenever you meet anybody, it is a holy encounter. The primary event is the energy field of presence between you and the other human being that arises. You enjoy it. There is deep joy in the meeting. Eckhart Tolle
• In this way, a permanent energy field of a pure and high frequency will arise between you. No illusion, no pain, no conflict, nothing that is not you, and nothing that is not love can survive in it. Eckhart Tolle

.

Grace is divine energy in action

• Grace is an energy; not a mere sentiment; not a mere thought of the Almighty; not even a word of the Almighty. It is as real an energy as the energy of electricity. It is a divine energy; it is the energy of the divine affection rolling in plenteousness toward the shores of human need. Benjamin Jowett

.

The energy of God is available to us…

• I think we can affect our own fates, but there’s also a powerful energy that’s the universe or God or whatever your unconscious recognizes that helps along your way. Charlie Hunnam
• The whole existence is surrounded by a divine energy that protects you, cares for you, is always available. If you go on missing it, it is only because of you. If you keep your doors closed, the sun may be outside but you will live in darkness. Even if the doors are open and the sun is there, you can keep your eyes closed and you will still live in darkness. So is the case with god: his love is always there but our hearts are not open, our hearts are closed. Rajneesh
• One of the truths I most deeply believe is that everything in life – everything – is energy. Within every one of us is the energy that makes the sun rise every day and keeps the planets aligned. It’s there, already inside of you, waiting for you to know it. And when you tap in with that connection, that source, that miraculous energy, what I know for sure is that the universe rises up to meet you in unimaginable ways and help you create the life that you want. Oprah Winfrey
• If you decide on your direction, God will give you the energy for the distance. B. Joshua

.

…waiting to be harnessed…

• The goal is to live with God like composure on the full rush of energy, like Dionysus riding the leopard, without being torn to pieces. Joseph Campbell
• The organs of the body are essentially sustained by the energy of God, and the person who employs various methods to increase this energy will have at his command a greater power for healing than is afforded by any medicine or diet. Paramahansa Yogananda
• What most people perceive as energy is really strength of spirit. It comes from the joy of knowing God, loving Him, and being loved by Him. Kathie Lee Gifford
• When the Spirit of God comes into us, He wants to be Himself in us. He wants His energy to be poured through us. He wants His wisdom to be deposited in our hearts. T. B. Joshua
• It is not my strength that grows, so much as God’s strength in me, which is given more abundantly as the days roll. It is so given on one condition. If my faith has laid hold of the infinite, the exhaustless, the immortal energy of God, unless there is something fearfully wrong about me, I shall be getting purer, nobler, wiser, more observant of His will; gentler, like Christ; every way fitter for His service, and for larger service, as the days increase. Alexander MacLaren
• I had been achieving heights by pushing down on the lower energies. But that was just a form of suppression. I had to learn to channel those energies upward instead of pushing them away from me. Michael A. Singer
• We can be tired, weary and emotionally distraught, but after spending time alone with God, we find that He injects into our bodies energy, power and strength. Charles Stanley

.

…by connecting to it…

• That has been my personal relationship with God–a connection with the powerful, loving, wise energy in all of us, in all creation. It is the life force itself. We can all have contact with it each moment in our lives, but it takes commitment and practice.  We must be willing to move through all our deepest fears, doubts, and misunderstandings.  Shakti Gawain
• Spirituality for me is recognizing that I am connected to the energy of all creation, that I am a part of it and it is always a part of me. Whatever label or word we use to describe “it” doesn’t matter. Words are completely inadequate. Oprah Winfrey
• God is the power that is keeping this universe in place, and we can be connected to that power source. Mike Parsons
• A different image of God changes our spiritual lives profoundly. If we think of God as nutrient and energy, as the source from which we draw life and strength, it changes our spiritual instincts. If God were the substrate from which we draw being, then Divine Life is always present in us, and we are always present in God. If this was our view of God, it would mean we always have access to the Divine. It would mean we are as inseparable from God as a tree is from the soil. Like the tree, Divine Life is always there, always surrounding and sustaining us. Doug Hammack
• Draw nigh to God, so that you may dread the grave as little as your bed. Draw nigh to God, that you may live a happy and useful life. Drawing nigh to God is the most concentrated energy of the soul. Effective prayer is the fruit of a relationship with God, not a technique for acquiring blessings. A. Carson
• I have already hinted that many rituals are fundamentally about connecting with the power of God. Ultimately, the narratives and dramatic actions of any ritual are simply expressions of the desire to connect. Flora A. Keshgegian
• I learned that I could control my life. You are the master of your fate. . . you are the captain of your soul. I took control and went to my space. . . My space. . . the universal energy. . . I tapped into that space of divine flow, where all beings, all things are connected. That space is real. You cannot have a meaningful life without having spiritual self-reflection. Know who you are and why you are here. When you tap into that space, divine flow, that universal energy, you become untouchable in what you are called to do. Oprah Winfrey
• Rather than seeking to do God’s will, it is more fitting to speak of connecting with the power of God as energy and strength for life. Such power is like the raging river, as well as the flowing stream. It destroys, even as it creates. Destruction does not make God evil, nor does creation make God good. Both destruction and creation are part of an ongoing process of life. Life leads to death; death flows back to life. In the world of energy there is no ultimate loss, but there is constant change. All is in motion, life unto life. Flora A. Keshgegian
• One who is connected to the Energy Stream is more powerful than a million who are not. And two who are harmoniously focused and connected to the Energy Stream brings about a co-creative endeavor that cannot be matched by anything else in all of the Universe. Esther Hicks
• All works are being done by the energy and power of nature, but due to delusion of ego people assume themselves to be the doer. Bhagavad Gita
• To truly honour life we must sink our roots into what is holy and embrace the infinite life force while radiating love and light. Micheal Teal
• The unseen energy that was once in Shakespeare or Picasso or Galileo or any human form, is also available to all of us. That is because the spirit energy does not die, it simply changes form. Wayne Dyer
• Energy doesn’t come to us so much from the things around us–although we can absorb energy directly from some plants and sacred sites. Sacred energy comes from our connection to the divine inside us. James Redfield
• The flower draws its life energy from the soil and from the sun. We are very similar. We continuously receive energy from the earth through our feet and from the air. Energy is everywhere, like love. We just have to open ourselves up to receive it. Ratu Bagus
• The electric energy which motivates us is not within our bodies at all. It is a part of the universal supply which flows through us from the Universal Source with an intensity set by our desires and our will. Walter Russell
• We are this divine energy. It’s not something we have to attain. We just have to realize it, to be present to it. Marshall B. Rosenberg

.

…by tuning in to it

• By tuning in to the ocean of loving energy around you, you can have far more security, enjoyable sensations, effectiveness, and love than you would ever need in order to live a continuously beautiful life. Ken Keyes Jr.
• God is a frequency. Stay tuned. Alan Cohen
• I believe I am connecting to angels and spirit guides and ancestors. All of that is falling under the category of God and the energy presence of God, and that is what I can tap into when I tune in and slow down. Gabrielle Bernstein
• If you’re not aligned with God, it’s hard to recognize yourself as being of God. The way that you get aligned with God is by being like God, being like Source, being like energy. That means understanding how God works. Wayne Dyer

.

By connecting to God as energy, we connect to the source of all energy

• The universe must be experienced as the Great Self. Each is fulfilled in the other: the Great Self is fulfilled in the individual self, the individual self is fulfilled in the Great Self. Alienation is overcome as soon as we experience this surge of energy from the source that has brought the universe through the centuries. New fields of energy become available to support the human venture. These new energies find expression and support in celebration. For in the end the universe can only be explained in terms of celebration. It is all an exuberant expression of existence itself. Thomas Berry
• Shortage of time is not your problem. Shortage of money is not your problem. Shortage of Connection to the Energy that creates worlds is at the heart of all sensations of shortage that you are experiencing. Esther Hicks
• Your work is to go forth into this physical environment looking for things that are a vibrational match to joy, connecting to Source Energy, and then following with the inspired action. Esther Hicks
• I know who I am, and the thing about power for me is that it’s connected to a source that’s obviously greater than myself. Any time you can connect to the source and understand that that’s where all of your energy, your creativity, your joy and your triumph come from, I consider that to be authentic power. Oprah Winfrey

.

The energy that is God is inexhaustible

• God is infinite; and the laws of nature, like nature itself, are finite. These methods of working, therefore, – which correspond to the physical element in us, – do not exhaust His agency. There is a boundless residue of disengaged energy beyond. James Martineau
• I never get tired because it ain’t energy that’s being dispenced. It is GOD speaking through me. Don King

.

The energy that is God is available for healing

• If God is energy for life and prayer is about connecting with the divine energy, then there is a way in which healing can be “energized” or “mobilized” by prayer. God is not an agent in this scenario who is directing the action or choosing who gets healed or not. Rather God is the energy that configures or not in such a way that healing is enabled. Flora A. Keshgegian
• Energy healing is based on the supposition that illness results from disturbances in the body’s energies and energy fields and can be addressed via interventions into those energies and energy fields. Jed Diamond
• I can tell you that anything that happens in the physical body will happen in the pattern of the energy fields first. Barbara Brennan
• Today healing energy constantly flows through every organ, joint and cell in my body. Louise Hay
• The best methods are those which help the life energy to resume its inner work of healing. Paramahansa Yogananda

.

We can allow divine energy to flow into us…

• Feel yourself being an opening through which energy flows from the unmanifested Source of all life through you for the benefit of all. Eckhart Tolle
• Be a perfect flow of energy in whatever you chose to do. This is perfect action. Frederick Lenz
• The energy that flows into what you do, although it may be high energy, is very peaceful energy. It is not out of alignment with life. Eckhart Tolle
• Spiritual energy flows in and produces effects, psychological or material, within the phenomenal world. William James

.

…and then use it wisely

• Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you’re going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and my maintaining focus. Oprah Winfrey
• Your life either takes your energy or gives you energy. Set up your life so that it gives you energy. Frederick Lenz
• Without movement there is no Life…We should use our energy to the fullest. Ai Qing

.

We can protect and direct the divine energy flowing through us

• Your goal in life should be to enjoy the highest levels of health and energy possible. This requires that you eat the right foods and fewer of them. It requires you to get regular exercise and move every joint of your body daily. To enjoy superb physical health, you must get lots of rest and recreation. Above all, you maintain a positive mental attitude, looking for the good in every situation, and remain determined to be a completely positive person. Brian Tracy
• Energy is the essence of life. Every day you decide how you’re going to use it by knowing what you want and what it takes to reach that goal, and my maintaining focus. Oprah Winfrey
• All of life is energy and we are transmitting it at every moment. Oprah Winfrey
• Say goodbye to the energy vampires in your life (the negative souls who steal your enthusiasm). Robin Sharma

.

We can all connect to universal energy in a way that works for us

• I think anything that you can use to connect is fine. For some people it’s meditation. For some people it’s yoga. For some people, it’s running. For some people, it’s affirmations. For me, it’s photographs and drawings, and affirmations, and statues, and crystals. I fill my writing space and I fill my home with symbols of what I think of as higher energy. Wayne Dyer

• Your energy, confidence and attitude is the currency that others will transact with. Amy Chan
• All organisms rely on exchange. They form symbiotic partnerships in order to obtain the energy that they need to survive. Energy is the currency of nature. Kabir Sehgal

• If you can learn to motivate yourself, you can always tap into an abundance of energy that will drive you to the success you dream of. Rachael Bermingham
• Success is almost totally dependent upon drive and persistence. The extra energy required to make another effort or try another approach is the secret of winning. Denis Waitley
• Success in almost any field depends more on energy and drive than it does on intelligence. Sloan Wilson
• The longer I live, the more I am certain that the great difference between the great and the insignificant, is energy – – invincible determination — a purpose once fixed, and then death or victory. Sir Thomas Fowell Buxton
• Real wealth is ideas plus energy. Richard Buckminster Fuller
• No one has success until he has the abounding life. This is made up of the many-fold activity of energy, enthusiasm and gladness. It is to spring to meet the day with a thrill at being alive. It is to go forth to meet the morning in an ecstasy of joy. It is to realize the oneness of humanity. Lilian Whiting

• The Universe knows all things and is responding to the vibration that you are sending. When you are sending your vibration on purpose, you are orchestrating what the Universe is aligning for you. Esther Hicks
• We now know that whatever you vibrate, you create and attract to yourself. So, you work on healing yourself in order to create peace around you. You become peace. If there is conflict living within you, you cannot live in a world of peace. The world mirrors back to you perfectly the condition of your love and of your intent. And if the world you re living in is not a world that is at peace and at joy and at grace, then you have to find peace, joy, and grace within you. Alberto Villoldo
• Your personal vibration or energy state is a blend of the contracted or expanded frequencies of your body, emotions, and thoughts at any given moment. The more you allow your soul to shine through you, the higher your personal vibration will be. Penney Peirce

Edwin Hubbel Chapin

The inflow of Divine energy is a consequence of karmic propensities, along with Grace, spiritual choice, and the assent of the Will as exemplified by worship, spiritual commitment, prayer, supplication, selfless service, mercy, and love.

Our purpose is to harness energy in order to lift ourselves and others up

• You will find true success and happiness if you have only one goal, there really is only one, and that is this: to fulfill the highest most truthful expression of yourself as a human being.

• I believe that the sum total of the energy of mankind is not to bring us down but to lift us up, and that is the result of the definite, if unconscious, working of the law of love. The fact that mankind persists shows that the cohesive force is greater than the disruptive force, centripetal force greater than centrifugal. Mahatma Gandhi

.

Our purpose is to fill up our own energy cup so we can fill the cups of others

• Are you balanced? Do you share your time, your energy, your life, as much with yourself as you do with those around you?. . . . Know your limits. You are one of the most important people you need to look after and love. Balance your time, your energy, your life with those around you.

Melody Beattie
• What if your purpose is to take impeccable care of yourself so that you have the energy and joy to serve others? Kris Carr

• So it is essential to bring more consciousness into your life in ordinary situations when everything is going relatively smoothly. In this way, you grow in presence power.

No unconsciousness , no negativity, no discord or violence can enter that field and survive, just as darkness cannot survive in the presence of light. Eckhart Tolle
• The transformation toward eternal life is gradual. The heavy gross energy of body, mind, and spirit must first be purified and uplifted. When the energy ascends… then self mastery can be sought. Laozi

Frank Waters
• The truth is that fear cannot coexist with love. Therefore, we must learn how to dissolve all boundaries with love by taking responsibility for our own energy. In doing so, we’ll raise the energy around us. Gabrielle Bernstein

• Instead of focusing on the world’s problems, give your attention and energy to trust, love, abundance, education and peace. Rhonda Byrne
• Irritation is a great source of energy and creativity. Anita Roddick
• There are many ways to calm a negative energy without suppressing or fighting it.

Nhat Hanh
• By taking a look at your anger it can be transformed into the kind of energy that you need – understanding and compassion. Nhat Hanh

…and thereby transform negative energy into positive energy

• With negative energy you can make the positive energy. A flower will become compost someday, but if you know how to transform the compost back into the flower, then you don’t have to worry. You don’t have to worry about your anger because you know how to handle it – to embrace, to recognize, and to transform it. So this is what is possible. Nhat Hanh
• Anger is loaded with information and energy. Audre Lorde
• Suffering is nature’s way of indicating a mistaken attitude or way of behavior, and to the nonegocentric person every moment of suffering is the opportunity for growth. People should rejoice in suffering, strange as it sounds, for this is a sign of the availability of energy to transform their characters. Rollo May
• Please remember, that even in your darkest moments, you still have the choice to focus your energy on the positive and create a better life. Andy Biersack
• You can use your life in a very useful and intelligent way. You can very well transform that negative energy into a positive energy that empowers you and makes life meaningful. Nhat Hanh
• With negative energy you can make the positive energy. A flower will become compost someday, but if you know how to transform the compost back into the flower, then you don’t have to worry. You don’t have to worry about your anger because you know how to handle it – to embrace, to recognize, and to transform it. So this is what is possible. Nhat Hanh
• Energy always flows either toward hope, community, love, generosity, mutual recognition, and spiritual aliveness or it flows toward despair, cynicism, fear that there is not enough, paranoia about the intentions of others, and a desire to control. Michael Lerner
• Remember my friend to enjoy your planning as well as your accomplishment, for life is too short for negative energy. Bruce Lee

• When your actions are motivated by love, your energy multiplies and accumulates — and the surplus energy you gather and enjoy can be channeled to create anything that you want, including unlimited wealth. Deepak Chopra
• I know it is something of a cliche to say that love makes all things possible, but I believe it does. It is not a magic wand that can be waved over life to make it all sweet and lovely and trouble free, but it can give the energy to fight the odds and win. Mary Balogh
• When your actions are motivated by love, you expend least effort and your energy multiplies, allowing you to create anything you want, with a spirit of play and joy. When you seek power and control over others, you waste energy chasing the illusion of happiness. Deepak Chopra
• Love floods our nervous system with positive energy, making us far more attractive to prospective employers, clients, and creative partners… Love leads us to act with impeccability, integrity, and excellence… Those things are the opposite of a poverty consciousness; they’re the stuff of spiritual wealth creation. Marianne Williamson
• If I am not in love, nothing is meaningful to me. I have no energy. Kevin Ayers
• In Samadhi, that very deep state of meditation, you are given energy and long-lasting bliss. It carries you higher and higher until your very presence radiates love. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
• Least effort is expended when my motivations are motivated by love, because nature is held together by love. When my actions are motivated by love, my energy multiplies and accumulates. Attention to my ego (when I seek power and control over others or seek approval from others) consumes the greatest amount of energy. When my internal reference point is my spirit, when I am immune from criticism and unafraid of any challenge, I harness the power of love. Deepak Chopra

.

Compassion generates energy

• Only when all your desires disappear does that energy become compassion, KARUNA. You cannot cultivate compassion. When you are desireless, compassion happens; your whole energy moves into compassion. And this movement is very different. Desire has a motivation in it, a goal; compassion is nonmotivated, there is no goal to it, it is simply overflowing energy. Rajneesh
• Rage is a powerful energy that with diligent practice can be transformed into fierce compassion. However much we disagree with our enemies, our task is to identify with them. They too feel justified in their point of view. Gautama Buddha
• Spiritual energy brings compassion into the world. Christina Baldwin
• A mind committed to compassion is like an overflowing reservoir – a constant source of energy, determination, and kindness. Dalai Lama
• What is my great wish and intention, is to make a base of compassion and to encourage people to work to shift the energy. Sakyong Mipham
• But if we have the energy of compassion and loving kindness in us, the people around us will be influenced by our way of being and living. Nhat Hanh
• Anger is the energy that people use in order to act. But when you are angry, you are not lucid, and you might do wrong things. That is why compassion is a better energy. Nhat Hanh
• Compassion is our most important practice. Understanding brings compassion. Understanding the suffering that living beings undergo helps liberate the energy of compassion. And with that energy you know what to do. Nhat Hanh
• The energy of compassion is very strong. We suffer. That is real. But we have learned not to get angry and not to allow ourselves to be carried by anger. We realize right away that that is fear. That is corruption. Nhat Hanh
• Change that does not lead to liberation from fear, greed and delusion is not wholesome. Furthermore, any change that does not yield more compassion and loving-kindness for yourself and others is a waste of precious life energy. Phillip Moffitt
• When you are blessing the sick, you beg of the Almighty, but actually you are not begging for anything, because from inside your being, energy is pouring into the other person. It is from a state of compassion, of compassionate meditation, that the healing activity of God, within the being, flows. Harbhajan Singh Yogi
• I used to think that to become free you had to practice like a samurai warrior, but now I understand that you have to practice like a devoted mother of a newborn child. It takes the same energy but has a completely different quality. It’s compassion and presence rather than having to defeat the enemy in battle. Jack Kornfield
• Have you ever noticed when you’re in the presence of certain people that you feel better about yourself? Their compassionate energy has the noticeably pleasant impact of simply making you feel really good about yourself. You’ll impact others with this energy of compassion as you develop your connection to intention. Wayne Dyer

.

Kindness generates energy

• Kind thoughts increase the flow of vital energy into your body and mind. Do kind acts now. Do not procrastinate. Kindness is like a healing balm. It soothes suffering… Little drops of water make the mighty ocean. Even so, little acts of kindness make an ocean of goodwill. Sivananda
• Kind thoughts increase the flow of vital energy into your body and mind. Sivananda
• Kindness, as we will see, has many facets. But its essence is as simple as can be. We will find that kindness is a way of making less It is the most economic attitude there is, because it saves us much energy that we might otherwise waste in suspicion, worry, resentment, manipulation, or unnecessary defense. It is an attitude that, by eliminating the inessential, brings us back to the simplicity of being.  Piero Ferrucci
• That is what thrills me, personally. Small acts of kindness; thoughtful, large acts of kindness. I feel like we’re in a bit of a precipice, and I think that any beautiful energy on the kindness continuum will just help us fall into a lovelier place. Bellamy Young
• Kindness is about energy we give and take from all creatures. The bottom line is the integrative interaction and the total interconnectedness between human beings, all creatures, and God. Kindness is a spirituality of solid truth, not shifting emotion; of justice, not occasional philanthropy; of genuine love, not sentimentality or masochism; of evolved adults, not fixated infants. Jean Maalouf

.

Forgiveness generates energy

• The energy of hatred won’t get you anywhere; but the energy of forgiveness, which reveals itself through love, will transform your life in a positive way. Paulo Coelho
• You practice forgiveness for two reasons: to let others know that you no longer wish to be in a state of hostility with them and to free yourself from the self-defeating energy of resentment. Send love in some form to those you feel have wronged you and notice how much better you feel. Wayne Dyer
• Forgive and call back the energy wasted on past events. Caroline Myss
• The forgiveness of God is one thing, but the proof that we want that forgiveness is the energy we expend to make amends for the wrong. Fulton J. Sheen
• Forgiving someone does not mean you condone their behavior. The act of forgiveness takes place in your own mind. It really has nothing to do with the other person. The reality of true forgiveness lies in setting ourselves free from holding on to the pain. It is simply an act of releasing yourself from the negative energy. Louise Hay
• Forgiveness is not a moral issue. It is an energy dynamic…Forgiveness means that you do not carry the baggage of an experience. Gary Zukav
• One of the greatest struggles of the healing process is to forgive both yourself and others and to stop expending valuable energy on the past hurts. Caroline Myss
• Instead of hating, I have chosen to forgive and spend all of my positive energy on changing the world. Camryn Manheim
• Never forget that to forgive yourself is to release trapped energy that could be doing good work in the world. D. Patrick Miller
• I actually think it’s easier to be positive than negative, to be honest – it takes way more energy to stay mad at someone, for instance, than it does to say “I forgive you” and move on. Dave Smalley
• It is not “forgive and forget” as if nothing wrong had ever happened, but “forgive and go forward,” building on the mistakes of the past and the energy generated by reconciliation to create a new future. Alan Paton
• An unforgiving nature reflects in your face. Holding negative energy drags down the facial muscles, puckers one’s frown and causes lines around the mouth. Working daily on forgiveness (forgiving oneself as well as one’s enemies) is the cheapest, most effective facelift in the whole wide world. All it requires is love and discipline. Sarah Miles
• If you have a sense that anyone is draining your energy, mentally cut the etheric psychic cord between you and the other person. Be willing to forgive that other person for seemingly draining you, and release the other person fully to the light, now. Completely let go of focusing on personalities of other people and ourselves, and focus, instead, on the true oneness of your spirit. Doreen Virtue
• You must learn to forgive yourself as easily as you forgive others. And then take a further step and use all that energy that you used in condemning yourself for improving yourself. After that I really started to get somewhere – because there’s only one person you can change and that’s yourself. After you have changed yourself, you might be able to inspire others to look for change. Peace Pilgrim
• Forgiveness is like the martial arts of consciousness. In Aikido and, other martial arts, we sidestep our attackers force rather than resisting it.  The energy of the attack then boomerangs back in the direction of the attacker.  Our power lies in remaining nonreactive. Forgiveness works in the same way.  When we attack back, and defense is a form of attack, we initiate a war that no one can win. Marianne Williamson
• Forgiveness and the release of the past open the creative flow of life, supporting all levels of mind, heart, body, emotion, and spirit. This energy flow determines the state of our health, our desire to create and procreate, our willingness to develop our gifts, and how we use or deny the life force that we are given as human beings. . . . by choosing to let go of the past, our fears, and our negative patterns or reactions to life, we are suddenly funded with a resurgence of life force, which propels us into a newfound way of being and a very different way of understanding the world. Jamie Sams

.

Giving generates energy

• Giving and receiving are different expressions of the same flow of energy in the universe. Deepak Chopra
• The more fully we give our energy, the more it returns to us. Gautama Buddha
• Natural Giving: Anything we do in life which is not out of that energy, we pay for and everybody else pays for. Anything we do to avoid punishment, everybody pays for. Everything we do for a reward, everybody pays for. Everything we do to make people like us, everybody pays for. Everything we do out of guilt, shame, duty, or obligation, everybody pays for. Marshall B. Rosenberg
• Receiving and giving are opposite energies that are inextricably linked together in the natural flow of life, like inhaling and exhaling. If one aspect of that cycle doesn’t function, the entire cycle ceases to function and the life force cannot move freely. If you can’t inhale, you will soon have nothing to exhale, and before long, your body will be unable to continue living. Shakti Gawain
• When we consistently generate thoughts of giving … We attract the energy of giving back to us. Wayne Dyer
• A balance of giving and receiving is essential to keeping your energy, mood and motivation at a consistently high level. Doreen Virtue
• The main thing is to be philanthropic in your everyday life. You don’t have to have money to do that. You can do it with your time and your energy. Eva Longoria
• The intention behind our giving and receiving is the most important thing. When the act of giving is joyful, when it is unconditional and from the heart, then the energy behind the giving increases many times over. But if we give grudgingly, there is no energy behind that giving. If we feel we have lost something through the act of giving, then the gift is not truly given and will not cause increase. Deepak Chopra
• Now there is living to give instead of to get. As you concentrate on the giving, you discover that just as you cannot receive without giving, so neither can you give without receiving – even the most wonderful things like health and happiness and inner peace. There is a feeling of endless energy, it just never runs out, it seems to be as endless as air. You seem to be plugged in to the source of universal energy. Peace Pilgrim

.

Healthy relationships generate energy

• There’s a tremendous power and energy in sharing your life with another person. Jerry Seinfeld
• In this way, a permanent energy field of a pure and high frequency will arise between you. No illusion, no pain, no conflict, nothing that is not you, and nothing that is not love can survive in it. This represents the the fulfillment of the divine transpersonal purpose of your relationship. Eckhart Tolle
• Make it a point to be around those with positive energy – people who want what’s best for you, people who understand your goals and priorities. Rebecca Lobo
• Don’t let negative people drain your energy. Focus on your positive energy and kill them with kindness. Energy vampires are no match for your positive energy. Jon Gordon
• If you focus on another person you take their energy in your body completely. Frederick Lenz
• There is an energy field between humans. And, when we reach out in passion, it is met with an answering passion and changes the relationship forever. Rollo May
• Positive energy is your priceless life force. Protect it. Don’t allow people to draw from your reserves; select friends who recharge your energies . . . I’m not asking you to cut people out of your life, but I am asking you to invest your time with people who will push you to be your best. Winners love to see other people win. Chalene Johnson
• Relationships are like a dance, with visible energy racing back and forth between the partners. Some relationships are the slow, dark dance of death. Colette Dowling
• People like to be around those who give off positive energy. Erin Heatherton
• Positive people with positive attitudes ignites energy in me Pat Falvey
• Spend time all day and all night monitoring your thoughts, constantly keeping them in a high plateau. Avoid places and people that pull your energy down. Frederick Lenz
• Every living being is psychic. Whether or not we are consciously aware of it, we feel vibrations and energies coming to us from other people all the time. The vast majority of the thoughts you think and the emotions you feel aren’t your own. Frederick Lenz
• Every relationship either gives energy to us or withholds energy from us, according to what we give to or withhold from it. And it’s not only our behavior toward others, but our very thoughts about them, that builds and/ or destroys relationships. Marianne Williamson
• If your stress is related to another person, finding forgiveness – changing your thoughts and energy around that person – can lower stress. Gabrielle Bernstein
• Do not look at anybody in terms of friend or foe, brother or cousin; do not fritter away your mental energies in thoughts of friendship or enmity. Seeking the Self everywhere, be amiable and equal-minded towards all, treating all alike. Adi Shankara
• Whenever you meet anybody, it is a holy encounter. The primary event is the energy field of presence between you and the other human being that arises. You enjoy it. There is deep joy in the meeting. Eckhart Tolle
• There is so much about my fate that I cannot control, but other things do fall under my jurisdiction. There are certain lottery tickets I can buy, thereby increasing my odds of finding contentment. I can decide how I spend my time, whom I interact with, whom I share my body and life and money and energy with. Elizabeth Gilbert

• Our gratitude liberates an energy within us that immediately expands into the formless substance, where it is instantly returned to us in kind. Wallace D. Wattles
• Gratitude turns negative energy into positive energy. There is no situation or circumstance so small or large that it is not susceptible to gratitude’s power. Melody Beattie
• Gratitude is a powerful process for shifting your energy and bringing more of what you want into your life. Be grateful for what you already have, and you will attract more good things. Rhonda Byrne
• If it is a new thought to you that gratitude brings your whole mind into closer harmony with the creative energies of the universe, consider it well, and you will see that it is true. Wallace D. Wattles
• Gratitude helps us stop trying to control outcomes. It is the key that unlocks positive energy in our life. It is the alchemy that turns problems into blessings, and the unexpected into gifts. Melody Beattie
• Abundance is an expansion of energy. Abundance is a form of gratitude, a generosity, a modesty, a bow toward others – what we can give, what we can share, rather than what we can take. Terry Tempest Williams
• Just as thoughts, send out vibrations to which there is a creative and attractive power, gratitude stimulates the field of etheric energy that surrounds you on a subtle level to bring into your life more of what brings you joy. Genevieve
• We have a spiritual responsibility to be consciously grateful because that energy’s frequency flows from us and assists in our own healing, our brother’s and sister’s healing, and ultimately the healing of the planet, our EarthMother. Louise Hay
• Let me recommend that periodically you and I offer a prayer in which we only give thanks and express gratitude. Ask for nothing; simply let our souls rejoice and strive to communicate appreciation with all the energy of our hearts. David A. Bednar
• Gratitude places you in the energy field of plentitude. Perceiving life in a consciousness of gratitude is literally stepping into another dimension of living. Suddenly the seeming ordinariness of your days takes on a divine sparkle. Michael Beckwith
• The BEST representation of Source Energy that you will ever find in your physical format is inexpressible. It’s that feeling of love and appreciation that just WELLS up within you, that is so sensational that you can hardly find words for it. That’s the true ESSENCE of who you are. Esther Hicks
• The common meaning of gratitude is to be thankful for benefits received. While this is important, I feel that the energy of gratitude is one of the most powerful attracting forces in the universe. A heart filled with Thanksgiving, even when appearances tell us that we are mired in scarcity, conflict, and affliction, moves us to a higher frequency in consciousness and we soon witness reality shining through the illusion. John Randolph Price

• You can find the money, you’ll be okay, but the things that you choose to invest your energy in, that shapes your life and your path and where you go from there. I find that when I’m a part of things that I believe in and I love, it leads to more things like that. Mae Whitman
• I will tell you that what gives me a sense of joy is having work to do that justifies pouring every ounce of energy I have into it. That’s really a blessing to have in your life. And it gives you energy back when you have the privilege of doing work that makes you feel that way. Al Gore
• I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint – and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you. Oprah Winfrey
• One way we can know that we are aligned with the life force that is God is that we feel more and more alive. Notice what gives you aliveness and what diminishes you, deadens and numbs you so that you only skim the surface of life. Begin to say yes to what quickens and energizes, to that which brings joy and gratitude. Mary Manin Morrissey
• When you are having fun and creating something you love, it shows in the product. So when a woman is sifting through a rack of clothes, somehow that piece of clothing that you had so much fun designing speaks to her she responds to it and buys it. I believe you can actually transfer that energy to material things as you’re creating them. Tom Ford
• There is definitely a connection between finding your passion and reaching your potential. People ask me all the time, ‘John, how do I know what I am meant to do in life?’ The answer is really simple: Energy and Excellence. When you experience unbounded energy in what you are doing, when you are driven to excellence in your work and love what you do – then you can rest assured that you have found your passion and are definitely in pursuit of your full potential. John C. Maxwell

.

Passion generates energy

• Passion is the energy that love creates with no object other than itself. Deepak Chopra
• Passion is energy. Feel the power that comes from focusing on what excites you. Oprah Winfrey
• Neglecting passion blocks creative flow. When you’re passionate, you’re energized. Likewise, when you lack passion, your energy is low and unproductive. Energy is everything when it comes to being successful. Gabrielle Bernstein
• With out passion you don’t have energy, with out energy you have nothing. Donald Trump
• When you find your passion, that becomes your energy source and that becomes what you commit yourself to. Rush Limbaugh

.

Excitement generates energy

.

Motivation generates energy

Play generates energy

• A firm commitment to guilt-free play will recharge your batteries, creating renewed motivation, creativity, and energy for all the other areas of your life. Neil Fiore
• When you’re depressed, the whole body is depressed, and it translates to the cellular level. The first objective is to get your energy up, and you can do it through play. It’s one of the most powerful ways of breaking up hopelessness and bringing energy into the situation. O. Carl Simonton
• Work and play can be the same. When you are following your energy and doing what you want to do all the time, the distinction between work and play dissolves. Work is no longer what you have to do, and play what you want to do. When you are doing what you love, you may work harder and produce more than ever before, because you are having fun. Shakti Gawain
• Work, as we usually think of it, is energy expended for a further end in view; play is energy expended for its own sake, as with children’s play, or as manifestation of the end or goal of work, as in “playing” chess or the piano. Play in this sense, then, is the fulfillment of work, the exhibition of what the work has been done for. Northrop Frye
• A game is an opportunity to focus our energy, with relentless optimism, at something we’re good at (or getting better at) and enjoy. In other words, gameplay is the direct emotional opposite of depression. Jane McGonigal

• No great work can be achieved by humbug. It is through love, a passion for truth, and tremendous energy, that all undertakings are accomplished. Swami Vivekananda

• Flow is the process of achieving happiness through control over one’s inner life. The optimal state of inner experience is order in consciousness. This happens when we focus our attention (psychic energy) on realistic goals and when our skills match the challenges we face. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
• You’re always striving for a place of Zen. Or a flow state, where you kind of transcend reality and you go to the other place. It’s when everything is in sync, and everyone is connecting with one another. Everything is going perfectly. You lose yourself. It’s the ultimate form of meditation where it’s an out – of – body experience. Afterward you come back to Earth and you’re like, ‘What just happened? We just did something awesome!’ It’s this energy in the room when you know you’re nailing it and you know everyone else is feeling it too. That’s why theater is so awesome. Evan Rachel Wood

Inspiration generates energy

• Inspiration is the richest nation I know, the most powerful on earth. Sexual energy Freud calls it; the capital of desire I call it; it pays for both mental and physical expenditure. Sylvia Ashton-Warner

• Inspiration is not inside of us. Inspiration comes from outside. It comes from our spiritual guides and from different energies that are in the universe. If we keep in touch with god and our spiritual guides, just knowing that they exist and they are there for us, gives us the strength to say well this is a bad phase but it’s going to end and when it ends I’m going to do something good. Airto Moreira
• Motivation is when you get hold of an idea and don’t let go of it until you make it a reality. Inspiration is the reverse – when an idea gets hold of you and you feel compelled to let that impulse or energy carry you along. You get to a point where you realize that you’re no longer in charge, that there’s a driving force inside you that can’t be stopped. Wayne Dyer

• Art is always an energy exchange. Erica Jong
• I feel like all this stuff that we make: books and art and music, all of it.

And if you don’t do it, it will go find somebody else. Elizabeth Gilbert

• Sustained enthusiasm brings into existence a wave of creative energy, and all you have to do is ‘ride the wave’. Eckhart Tolle
• Enthusiasm is the yeast that makes your hopes shine to the stars. Enthusiasm is the sparkle in your eyes, the swing in your gait. The grip of your hand, the irresistible surge of will and energy to execute your ideas. Henry Ford
• Enthusiasm is not an emotional state. It is a spiritual commitment, a loving surrender to our creative process. Enthusiasm – from the Greek, filled with God – is an ongoing energy supply tapped into the flow of life itself. Julia Cameron
• Enthusiasm is when the universe creates through you. You are involved in a creative act. You are bringing something new into this world. When that energy comes in, you feel an intense aliveness that flows into what you do. That is enthusiasm. Eckhart Tolle
• Enthusiasm is a virtue rarely to be met with in seasons of calm and unruffled prosperity. Enthusiasm flourishes in adversity, kindles in the hour of danger, and awakens to deeds of renown. The terrors of persecution only serve to quicken the energy of its purposes. It swells in proud integrity, and, great in the purity of its cause, it can scatter defiance amidst hosts of enemies. Thomas Chalmers

.

• I believe that we’re all connected to each other with an invisible spiritual thread through which we can transmit energy emissions and positive thinking. I want you to use your visualization techniques. Uri Geller

.

Imagination generates energy

• The energies of the body are the energies that move the imagination. These energies are the source, then, of mythological imagery; in a mythological organization of symbols, the conflicts between the different organic impulses within the body are resolved and harmonized. You might say mythology is a formula for the harmonization of the energies of life. Joseph Campbell
• What is the imagination? Only an arm or weapon of the interior energy; only the precursor of the reason. Ralph Waldo Emerson

• Authentic inspiration endows individuals with mental or spiritual energy which they are then able to transform into positive action. It can make all the difference between a man, woman, or child allowing despair to permanently paralyze any dreams they may have for their lives, or, exercising sufficient strength of will to make those dreams a reality. Aberjhani
• But when you personalize your life, when you make your life a place where you can be yourself, when you do things the way you want to do them, your life feels like your home. And that is a tremendous source of emotional energy. Mira Kirshenbaum

• Open your mind, allow your feelings to be expressed, to be pushed out, and your heart will neither break nor burst, but be a free-flowing channel of the life energy in your soul. Neale Donald Walsch
• The refusal to feel takes a heavy toll. Not only is there an impoverishment of our emotional and sensory life, flowers are dimmer and less fragrant, our loves less ecstatic√¢ but this psychic numbing also impedes our capacity to process and respond to information. The energy expended in pushing down despair is diverted from more creative uses, depleting the resilience and imagination needed for fresh visions and strategies. Joanna Macy
• To manage our emotions is not to drug them or suppress them, but to understand them so that we can intelligently direct our emotional energies and intentions….

• When we experience moments of ecstasy-in play, in art, in sex-they come not as an exception, an accident, but as a taste of what life is meant to be. . . Ecstasy is an idea, a goal, but it can be the expectation of every day. Those times when we’re grounded in our body, pure in our heart, clear in our mind, rooted in our soul, and suffused with the energy, the spirit of life, are our birthright. It’s really not that hard to stop and luxuriate in the joy and wonder of being. Children do it all the time. It’s a natural human gift that should be at the heart of our lives. Gabrielle Roth

There is no action without expenditure of energy, and if energy be not expended the power to generate it is lost. This law shows itself in a thousand ways in the life of man. The arm which is not used becomes palsied. The wealth which comes by chance weakens and destroys. The good which is unused turns to evil. The charity which asks no effort cannot relieve the misery she creates. David Starr Jordan

.

Allowing and surrendering generates energy

• Will is the idea that I’m going to make this thing happen. Intent is inspiration – allowing it to take place. I don’t say that will is bad.

• Get enough exercise and sleep: Sounds trivial, but it’s not. You may have the urge to work 24/7, to skip the gym and to stay up late to get a few more things done. That’s short-sighted. Exercise and sleep are critical to having the physical and mental energy necessary to meet a challenge. Gretchen Rubin
• A factor that greatly supports the opening of energy in practice is exercise and care of the physical body. Jack Kornfield
• Rest when you’re weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work. Ralph Marston
• The fitter you are, the more energy you have. Murray Mexted
• I will keep my body charged with energy for fulfillment of my purpose, in accord with that which is commanded of me. Walter Russell
• Training gives us an outlet for suppressed energies created by stress and thus tones the spirit just as exercise conditions the body. Arnold Schwarzenegger
• Feed and strengthen your body. Fear is physical. When you lift weights or go for a sprint, that energy flows back into your body and restores you to certainty. Tony Robbins
• I mean I love movement. I mean the energy that comes from the way I move. We get energy from how we move. I mean the control I get from knowing everything about how my body feels and how it is working. Conor McGregor
• Your goal in life should be to enjoy the highest levels of health and energy possible. This requires that you eat the right foods and fewer of them. It requires you to get regular exercise and move every joint of your body daily. To enjoy superb physical health, you must get lots of rest and recreation. Above all, you maintain a positive mental attitude, looking for the good in every situation, and remain determined to be a completely positive person. Brian Tracy

Care for the body generates energy

• Treat your body like a temple, not a woodshed. The mind and body work together. Your body needs to be a good support system for the mind and spirit. If you take good care of it, your body can take you wherever you want to go, with the power and strength and energy and vitality you will need to get there. Jim Rohn

A healthy diet generates energy

• The right diet directs sexual energy into the parts that matter. Barbara Cartland
• When you nourish your body with pure energy, you transform from the inside out. Bill Phillips
• The worst diets are ones that restrict your calories too much and try to trick your body. You have no energy, and it’s ridiculous. Laura Prepon
• If you don’t eat right and you don’t know how to take care of your body, you’re not going to have the energy to do anything wonderful. Louise Hay
• For my own health, I thought it was better to eat a plant based diet. I’m going to be 60 soon and I have boundless energy and I feel really good, so I’m all for it. Ed Begley, Jr.
• If I eat junk food and have a workout the next day, I feel a significant difference in the way my body responds to exercise. Im sluggish, tired and run out of energy very quickly. Josie Loren
• Our bodies are made up of dynamic energy systems that are affected by our diets, relationships, heredity, and culture and the interplay of all these factors and activities… Christiane Northrup
• Staying healthy through movement and eating well gives you tons of energy and helps mold the skills that allow you to achieve goals from playing soccer to doing a tough homework assignment to writing a song. Sabrina Bryan
• I wake up feeling clear and energized in the morning What is most profound for me about this light eating pattern is the flow of cosmic energy I feel coursing through my body. During the day it feels as if joy is simply running through every cell independent of external factors. Gabriel Cousens
• As far juicing goes, I’ve done it for a couple of years; it’s very good to cleanse the body. Doing the smoothies and getting the fruits and veggies in there just gives you more energy. You’ll feel quite different after a couple weeks of doing it. Be consistent with it and you’ll see it really makes a difference. Dwight Howard
• In vegetables and fruits, God has infused medicinal power to help in overcoming disease. Even these, however, have but a limited potency. The organs of the body are essentially sustained by the energy of God, and the person who employs various methods to increase this energy will have at his command a greater power for healing than is afforded by any medicine or diet. Paramahansa Yogananda
• Consciousness creates the body. Our bodies are made up of dynamic energy systems that are affected by our diets, relationships, heredity, and culture and the interplay of all these factors and activities… We cannot hope to reclaim our bodily wisdom and inherent ability to create health without first understanding the influence of our society on how we think about and care for our bodies. Christiane Northrup
• Our mental and emotional diets determine our overall energy levels, health, and well-being to a far greater extent than most people realize. Every thought and feeling, no matter how big or small, impacts our inner energy reserves. Howard Martin

.

Sleep restores energy

• Get enough exercise and sleep: Sounds trivial, but it’s not. You may have the urge to work 24/7, to skip the gym and to stay up late to get a few more things done. That’s short-sighted. Exercise and sleep are critical to having the physical and mental energy necessary to meet a challenge. Gretchen Rubin
• There is an inflow of vital power, which is received by all living organisms during sleep ….. this vital energy is the only power by which the body may be healed, repaired, renewed or maintained Wallace D. Wattles

.

Rest and renewal restores energy

• Rest when you’re weary. Refresh and renew yourself, your body, your mind, your spirit. Then get back to work. Ralph Marston
• Full engagement requires drawing on four separate but related sources of energy: physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Because energy diminishes both with overuse and with underuse, we must balance energy expenditure with intermittent energy renewal. Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz
• Usually, when the distractions of daily life deplete our energy, the first thing we eliminate is the thing we need the most: quiet, reflective time. Time to dream, time to contemplate what’s working and what’s not, so that we can make changes for the better. Sarah Breathnach
• This art of resting the mind and the power of dismissing from it all care and worry is probably one of the secrets of energy in our great men. Captain J. A. Hadfield

.

Trusting our intuition generates energy

• Trusting your intuition means tuning in as deeply as you can to the energy you feel, following that energy moment to moment, trusting that it will lead you where you want to go and bring you everything you desire. Shakti Gawain
• Notice what happens when you follow your intuitive feelings. The result is usually increased energy and power, and a sense of things flowing. Shakti Gawain
• Every time you don’t follow your inner guidance, you feel a loss of energy, loss of power, a sense of spiritual deadness. Shakti Gawain
• Our inner guidance comes to us through our feelings and body wisdom first – not through intellectual understanding. The intellect works best in service to our intuition, our inner guidance, soul, God or higher power – whichever term we choose for the spiritual energy that animates life. Christiane Northrup
• Being in an empty mind increases my intuition, my sense of energy. Rickson Gracie
• The concept of psychic energy is easy for most people to imagine. After all, it’s just one step beyond intuition – and almost everyone is comfortable with the idea of intuition. Jayne Ann Krentz
• Intuition is neither the ability to engage prophecy nor a means of avoiding financial loss or painful relationships. It is actually the ability to use energy data to make decisions in the immediate moment. Caroline Myss

.

Expectation generates energy

• The universe is energy, energy that responds to our expectations. James Redfield
• If you expect nothing, you can never be disappointed. Apart from a few starry-eyed poets or monks living on a mountaintop somewhere, however, we all have expectations. We not only have them, we need them. They fuel our dreams, our hopes, and our lives like some super-caffeinated energy drink. Tonya Hurley
• …the basic stuff of the universe, at its core, is looking like a kind of pure energy that is malleable to human intention and expectation in a way that defies our old mechanistic model of the universe–as though our expectation itself causes our energy to flow out into the world and affect other energy systems. James Redfield

.

Attention generates energy

• Where the mind goes energy flows. Ernest Holmes
• Energy flows where attention goes. Michael Beckwith
• Where attention goes, energy flows and results show. Harv Eker
• The only thing that can grow is the thing you give energy to. Ralph Waldo Emerson
• Where Attention goes Energy flows; Where Intention goes Energy flows! James Redfield
• Everything is dependent upon energy. Energy is attention. Attention is awareness. Frederick Lenz
• Where focus goes, energy flows. And where energy flows, whatever you’re focusing on grows. Tony Robbins
• I attract to my life whatever I give my attention, energy and focus to, whether positive or negative. Michael Losier
• Attention: a sacred energy coming into me. Be sensitive to it. Recognize again and again that it is there. Michel de Salzmann
• Attention is psychic energy, and like physical energy, unless we allocate some part of it to the task at hand, no work gets done. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
• Attention is like energy in that without it no work can be done, and in doing work is dissipated. We create ourselves by how we use this energy. Memories, thoughts and feelings are all shaped by how use it. And it is an energy under control, to do with as we please; hence attention is our most important tool in the task of improving the quality of experience. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
• Simply put, the Law of Attraction states that you will attract into your life whatever you focus on. Whatever you give your energy and attention to will come back to you. So, if you stay focused on the good and positive things in your life, you will automatically attract more good and positive things into your life. Jack Canfield

.

Presence and resting in awareness generates energy

• By being with yourself, the ‘I am’, by watching yourself in your daily life with alert interest, with the intention to understand rather than judge, in full acceptance of whatever may emerge, because it is there, you encourage the deep to come to the surface, and enrich your life and consciousness with its captive energies. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
• In fact, the collective energy field of presence can be very helpful when people come together. It can give you an enormous boost. Eckhart Tolle
• In this state of inner connectedness, you are much more alert, more awake than in the mind-identified state. You are fully present. It also raises the vibrational frequency of the energy field that give life to the physical body.  Eckhart Tolle
• People are amazed to realize they can enjoy the moment rather than be stressed by it when hurrying to an appointment. You can enjoy the energy movement of the moment when you do not have a mental projection of a future moment you need to get to. You still know that you need to get there, but it is the secondary consideration. Eckhart Tolle
• So it is essential to bring more consciousness into your life in ordinary situations when everything is going relatively smoothly. In this way, you grow in presence power. It generates an energy field in you and around you of a high vibrational frequency. No unconsciousness , no negativity, no discord or violence can enter that field and survive, just as darkness cannot survive in the presence of light. Eckhart Tolle
• The state of presence is the only state in which creative energy is available to you. Eckhart Tolle
• To maintain a powerful life force, forget yourself, forget about living and dying, and bring your full attention into this moment. E Davey
• Whenever you meet anybody, it is a holy encounter. The primary event is the energy field of presence between you and the other human being that arises. You enjoy it. There is deep joy in the meeting. Eckhart Tolle
• You can enjoy the present moment, and you can be aligned with the doing. A different state of consciousness, then, is the foundation for what you do. Presence flows into what you do. Even though what you do may be the same, there is a fundamental difference: The energy that flows into what you do, although it may be high energy, is very peaceful energy. It is not out of alignment with life. Eckhart Tolle

.

Witnessing our inner life generates energy

• There is an intrinsic law: thoughts don’t have their own life. They are parasites; they live on your identifying with them. When you say, ‘I am angry,’ you are pouring life energy into anger, because you are getting identified with anger. But when you say, ‘I am watching anger flashing on the screen of the mind within me,’ you are not anymore giving any life, any energy to anger. Rajneesh

.

Being present in the moment generates energy

• Throw away all ambition beyond that of doing the day’s work well. The travelers on the road to success live in the present, heedless of taking thought for the morrow. Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day’s work absorb your entire energies, and satisfy your wildest ambition. William Osler
• A positive attitude goes a long way. Focus your energy on the here and now, and see how a happier you shines through. Jamie Eason
• The river is now. This moment. This breath between us. The space between your heartbeats. The moment before you blink. The instant a thought flashes through your mind. It is everything that is around us. Life. Energy. Flowing, endlessly flowing, carrying you from then…to now…to tomorrow. Listen: you can hear the music of it. Of the passage of time. Lisa Mangum
• Love the moment and the energy of that moment will spread beyond all boundaries. Corita Kent
• Your life is influenced by the energy you bring to every moment. Cheryl Richardson
• Be fully in the moment, open yourself to the powerful energies dancing around you. Ernest Hemingway

• Simply be present with your own shifting energies and with the unpredictabilit y of life as it unfolds. Pema Chodron
• Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day absorb all your interest, energy and enthusiasm. The best preparation for tomorrow is to live today superbly well. William Osler
• Love the moment and the energy of that moment will spread across all boundaries. Corita Kent
• When you withdraw all your energy from past and future a tremendous explosion happens. That explosion is creativity. Rajneesh
• When you consistently direct your mind to live in the present you will always have boundless energy, no matter what time the clock reflects. Robin Sharma
• Living in the present moment doesn’t mean you aren’t affected by, or that you don’t learn from, your past—or that you don’t plan for tomorrow (or for retirement and so forth), only that you understand that your most effective, powerful, and positive energy is the energy of today—the energy of right now. Richard Carlson
• We keep ourselves so tied up in regretting the past and fearing the future that we don’t have any energy left to figure out who we are and what we want to create right now. Gay Hendricks
• Here’s the advice Sir William Osler gave the students at Yale: “Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day absorb all your interest, energy and enthusiasm. The best preparation for tomorrow is to live today superbly well. William Osler
• You can find energizing moments in each aspect of your life, but to do so you must learn how to catch them, hold onto them…and allow yourself to follow where they lead. Marcus Buckingham

.

Being present today generates energy

• Live neither in the past nor in the future, but let each day’s work absorb your entire energies, and satisfy your widest ambition. William Osler
• Our whole energy remains blocked either in the past or in the future. When you withdraw all your energy from past and future a tremendous explosion happens. Rajneesh
• We keep ourselves so tied up in regretting the past and fearing the future that we don’t have any energy left to figure out who we are and what we want to create right now. Gay Hendricks
• As you continue the work of acknowledging and claiming the gifts of your past and standing in the power of your present, you are freeing up enormous reserves of creative energy. Debbie Ford

• Don’t dwell on what went wrong. Instead, focus on what to do next. Spend your energies on moving forward toward finding the answer. Denis Waitley
• Where focus goes, energy flows. And if you don’t take the time to focus on what matters, then you’re living a life of someone else’s design. Tony Robbins
• When one learns to focus energy through surrender and sensitivity, they become free, and can access the expansiveness of endless possibility. Bryant H. McGill
• You need a job. You need a career. You need a focus. Otherwise, you will just pick up lots of strange psychic energy because you are not focused. Frederick Lenz
• Anxiety and fear produce energy. Where we focus that energy noticeably affects the quality of our lives: focus on the solution, not the problem. Walter Inglis Anderson
• Don’t worry about what you can’t control. Our focus and energy needs to be on the things we CAN control. Attitude, effort, focus- these are the things we can control. Tim Tebow
• The intrinsic path to success is to focus on being the person that you are, and put all of your energy and drive into being the best possible version of yourself. Paul Buchheit
• Once I stop spending energy trying to prevent things I have no control over, I have a tremendous amount of energy to focus on the places where I can make a difference. Michael Treanor
• We all have many opportunities, but limited capacity to pursue them. Make choices, focus your time and energy, so that you can submit your share of masterpieces to the greater good. Kevin B. Rollins
• A laser is a weak source of energy. A laser takes [only] a few watts of energy and focuses them in a coherent stream of light. But with a laser, you can drill a hole in a diamond or wipe out cancer. Al Ries
• Avoid fragmentation: Find your focus and seek simplicity. Purposeful living calls for elegant efficiency and economy of effort-expanding the minimum time and energy necessary to achieve desired goals. Dan Millman

• Seeking is a combination of emotions people usually think of as being different: wanting something really good, looking forward to getting something really good and curiosity. Seeking gives you the energy to go after your goals. Temple Grandin
• Oftentimes we don’t manifest what we want in our lives, because our energy is too focused on what others are doing in their lives. This lack of focus in our own life, dilutes our energy and we leak our creative potential into other people’s soul experience. Sabrina
• Lions don’t have to roar. There is power in silence, confidence, and persistence. Those who work don’t talk, and those who talk don’t work. Handle your business. Measure your efforts by results. Focus your time, energy, and activity on mastering and executing a plan. Les Brown
• You have to be able to focus, to control your energy. You need to make it your ally, instead of trying to harness it, to muscle it. That wastes energy too. There has to be a harmony between you and your body. Your mind and your body, and your soul have to connect in order to move forward. And this comes through relaxation. Elvis Stojko
• Where focus goes, energy flows. And where energy flows, whatever you’re focusing on grows. In other words, your life is controlled by what you focus on. That’s why you need to focus on where you want to go, not on what you fear. When you next find yourself in a state of uncertainty, resist your fear. Shift your focus toward where you want to go and your actions will take you in that direction. Tony Robbins

• The real essence of work is concentrated energy – people who really have that in a superior degree by nature are independent of the forms and habits and artifices by which less able and less active people are kept up to their labors. Walter Bagehot
• To concentrate implies bringing all your energy to focus on a certain point; but thought wanders away… Whereas attention has no control, no concentration. It is complete attention, which means giving all your energy, the energy of the brain, your heart, everything, to attending. Jiddu Krishnamurti
• Concentrate your energies, your thoughts and your capital. The wise man puts all his eggs in one basket and watches the basket. Andrew Carnegie

By focusing our efforts to a single point, we achieve the greatest results. The first rule of success, and the one that supercedes all others, is to have energy. It is important to know how to concentrate it, how to husband it, how to focus it on important things instead of frittering it away on trivia. Michael Korda

Hal Elrod

It comes from doing some certain thing into which you can put all your thought and energy. If you want to be happy, get enthusiastic about something. Dale Carnegie
• …perhaps the most distinguishing trait of visionary leaders is that they believe in a goal that benefits not only themselves, but others as well. It is such vision that attracts the psychic energy of other people, and makes them willing to work beyond the call of duty for the organization. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
• To enjoy your goals, think of them as signposts, pointing you in a certain direction. They give you a focus and help your energy to get moving.  The way you go is up to you; you can get very uptight focusing only on getting to your goal or you can relax and enjoy the entire journey, appreciating every unexpected bend and turn of the road, every new opportunity for learning and feeling. Shakti Gawain
• Make sure your goals are dynamic, that is to say, point toward an activity that you are engaged in and through which you are connected to other human beings as well as to the whole. See yourself inspiring countless people with your work and enriching their lives. Feel yourself being an opening through which energy flows from the unmanifested Source of all life through you for the benefit of all. Eckhart Tolle

• Many people fail in life, not for lack of ability or brains or even courage but simply because they have never organized their energies around a goal. Elbert Hubbard
• Avoid fragmentation: Find your focus and seek simplicity. Purposeful living calls for elegant efficiency and economy of effort-expanding the minimum time and energy necessary to achieve desired goals. Dan Millman
• An effective goal focuses primarily on results rather than activity. It identifies where you want to be, and, in the process, helps you determine where you are. It gives you important information on how to get there, and it tells you when you have arrived. It unifies your efforts and energy. It gives meaning and purpose to all you do. Stephen Covey
• Concentration is the magic key that opens the door to accomplishment. By concentrating our efforts upon a few major goals, our efficiency soars, our projects are completed — we are going somewhere. By focusing our efforts to a single point, we achieve the greatest results. The first rule of success, and the one that supercedes all others, is to have energy.

• …the basic stuff of the universe, at its core, is looking like a kind of pure energy that is malleable to human intention and expectation in a way that defies our old mechanistic model of the universe–as though our expectation itself causes our energy to flow out into the world and affect other energy systems. James Redfield
• Commitment is the ultimate assertion of human freedom. It releases all the energy you possess and enables you to take quantum leaps in creativity.

Deepak Chopra
• Once you put your attention, your thoughts, your energy, your consciousness on a new intention, that’s what you begin manifesting into your life. The word “intention,” I believe, is really important, because it doesn’t leave any room for doubt or maneuvering: “I intend to create this in my life out of the circumstances that I’m now experiencing.” Wayne Dyer
• It is not good enough for things to be planned – they still have to be done; for the intention to become a reality, energy has to be launched into operation. Walt Kelly
• Power is the basic energy needed to initiate and sustain action or, to put it another way, the capacity to translate intention into reality and sustain it. Leadership is the wise use of this power: Transformative leadership. Warren G. Bennis

• Our thoughts are a field of energy cycles, a mind field, and just by our thoughts alone we impact not only ourselves but those around us as well. Wayne Dyer
• You are a dynamic being of Light that at each moment informs the energy that flows through you. You do this with each thought, with each intention. Gary Zukav
• Thought is the primary energy and vibration that emanated from God and is thus the creator of life, electrons, atoms, and all forms of energy. Paramahansa Yogananda
• Thoughts are mental energy; they’re the currency that you have to attract what you desire. You must learn to stop spending that currency on thoughts you don’t want. Wayne Dyer
• True thoughts have duration in themselves. If the thoughts endure, the seed is enduring; if the seed endures, the energy endures; if the energy endures, then will the spirit endure. Lu Yen-hsun
• Energy follows thought; we move toward, but not beyond, what we can imagine. What we assume, expect, or believe creates and colors our experience. By expanding our deepest beliefs about what is possible, we change our experience of life. Dan Millman
• Most of the circuits in our brains run on automatic. The more you think a thought, the more energy goes into that circuit. Eventually it gets enough energy to run the thought automatically without us needing to put more energy into it. Jill Bolte Taylor
• Thought is pure energy. Every thought you have, have ever had, and ever will have is creative. The energy of your thought never dies. Ever. It leaves your being and heads out into the universe, extending forever. A thought is forever. Neale Donald Walsch
• First thoughts have tremendous energy. The internal censor usually squelches them, so we live in the realm of second and third thoughts, thoughts on thought, twice and three times removed from the direct connection of the first fresh flash. Natalie Goldberg

• If everybody thinks of something, then it will happen. Your mind is part of the universe. It is connected, you can use its energy. Yoko Ono
• Thought is the first level of creation. Next comes the word. Everything you say is a thought expressed. It is creative and sends forth creative energy into the universe. Words are the second level of creation. Next comes action. Neale Donald Walsch
• Thoughts give birth to a creative force that is neither elemental nor sidereal. Thoughts create a new heaven, a new firmament, a new source of energy, from which new arts flow. When a man undertakes to create something, he establishes a new heaven. Paracelsus

Bringing attention to the energy field of the body generates energy

• Experiencing one’s life force more deeply is transformative. Joseph Selbie
• At every stage of spiritual growth, the greatest ally you have is your body. Deepak Chopra
• Be strong then, and enter into your own body; there you have a solid place for your feet. Kabir
• Once we open up to the flow of energy within our body, we can also open up to the flow of energy in the universe. Wilhelm Reich
• No matter what your body’s appearance is on the outer level, beyond the outer form it is an intensely alive energy field. Eckhart Tolle
• It is only by grounding our awareness in the living sensation of our bodies that the ‘I Am,’ our real presence, can awaken. I. Gurdjieff
• If you have difficulty feeling your emotions, start by focusing attention on the inner energy field of your body. Feel the body from within. Eckhart Tolle
• People have a need to feel their pain. Very often pain is the beginning of a great deal of awareness. As an energy center it awakens consciousness. Arnold Mindell
• Focus your attention on the top of your neck. Take that energy and transmit it in two lines to your hands. Then from the hands, bounce that energy right back to the heart center and ground it. Frederick Lenz
• Focus your attention within. Feel the energy of the emotion. If there is no emotion present, take your attention more deeply into the inner energy field of your body. It is the doorway into Being. Eckhart Tolle
• When Jesus said, “the kingdom of God is within you,” he meant it literally. The more our awareness becomes centered in our subtle energy body, the more happy, fulfilled, loving, compassionate, energetic, and calm we feel. Joseph Selbie
• I always keep some of my attention in the energy field of my body. I feel my body from within. This helps keep me present. I always feel the stillness inside. I keep the portal open in all I do. Always staying rooted within. Eckhart Tolle
• Please open your eyes now but keep attention in the inner energy field of the body as you look around the room. The inner body lies at the threshold between your form identity and your essence identity, your true nature. Never lose touch with it. Eckhart Tolle
• The key is to be in a state of permanent connectedness with your inner body – to feel it at all times. This will rapidly deepen and transform your life. The more consciousness you direct into the inner body, the higher its vibrational frequency becomes. Eckhart Tolle
• Learn to pay attention to your body with the relaxed attitude of gratitude, trust, curiosity and unconditional love rather than being pushed around by habit, fear, anxiety, social customs, other people’s schedules and other people’s ideas about what is good for you. Wallace D. Wattles
• Feel the energy of your inner body. Immediately mental noise slows down or ceases. Feel it in your hands, your feet, your abdomen, your chest. Feel the life that you are, the life that animates the body. The body then becomes a doorway, so to speak, into a deeper sense of aliveness underneath the fluctuating emotions and underneath your thinking. Eckhart Tolle
• Make it a habit to ask yourself: What’s going on inside me at this moment? That question will point you in the right direction. But don’t analyze, just watch. Focus your attention within. Feel the energy of the emotion. If there is no emotion present, take your attention more deeply into the inner energy field of your body. It is the doorway into Being. Eckhart Tolle
• Direct your attention into the body. Feel it from within. It is alive? Is there life in your hands, arms, legs, and feet – in your abdomen, your chest? Can you feel the subtle energy field that pervades the entire body and gives vibrant life to every organ and every call? Can you feel it simultaneously in all parts of the body as a single field of energy?   Eckhart Tolle
• When listening to another person, don’t just listen with your mind, listen with your whole body. Feel the energy field of your inner body as you listen.That takes attention away from thinking and creates a still space that enables you to truly listen without the mind interfering. You are giving the other person space-space to be. It is the most precious gift you can give. Eckhart Tolle
• Catch it before it can take over your thinking or behaviour. This simply means putting the spotlight of your attention on it. If it is an emotion, feel the strong energy charge behind it. Know that it is the pain- body. At the same time, be the knowing; that is to say, be aware of your conscious presence and feel its power. Any emotion that you take your presence into will quickly subside and become transmuted.  Eckhart Tolle
• I bring my attention to my hands on the steering wheel and notice how the chatter in my mind begins to fall away as my breathing slows. I’m awake and alive, simply driving the car going where I need to go, on time and in time. A still point of the turning world. With that awareness, I bring my attention into my body, and the body is the doorway to the timeless, because the body is always where we are and always in the present moment. Roger Housden
• Meditation, simply defined, is the disciplined shifting of our awareness from the physical body to our subtle astral body. Sitting in stillness, we become less and less aware of the physical body and naturally and effortlessly become more and more aware of our subtle energy body. As we become more aware of our subtle energy body we are filled with the peace, love, and joy that is inherent to it. As we become more aware of our subtle energy body we feel our selves to be less material and more energetic; less defined and more connected; less matter and more Light. Joseph Selbie
• Notice the awareness in your toes, your legs, your pelvic area, your stomach, your chest, your arms, your fingers, and your head. If any mental commentary arises during inner body awareness, simply see that commentary and bring attention back into the body and mind. When inner space is aware of itself in this way, thought naturally quiets. It is seen that awareness throughout the body is one flowing energy field without boundaries. In noticing that the space of the inner body is one undivided space, this same undivided space is seen to be “out there”—outside the body. This is the realization that there is no boundary between you and the rest of life. Thought creates this illusory boundary. Don’t think of “inner body awareness” as a practice or doing in time. Thought is what places a practice in time. If the thought arises, “I should continue practicing inner body awareness so that I can become more present,” just notice it. That story is a lie. There is no becoming to awareness. Noticing inner body awareness is an end in and of itself. It is a present seeing. Scott Kiloby
• Bring present awareness into the body and mind throughout the day, especially when you notice thought wandering into the story of self—into past, future, and resistance to now. Notice the awareness in your toes, your legs, your pelvic area, your stomach, your chest, your arms, your fingers, and your head. If any mental commentary arises during inner body awareness, simply see that commentary and bring attention back into the body and mind. When inner space is aware of itself in this way, thought naturally quiets. It is seen that awareness throughout the body is one flowing energy field without boundaries. In noticing that the space of the inner body is one undivided space, this same undivided space is seen to be “out there”—outside the body. This is the realization that there is no boundary between you and the rest of life. Thought creates this illusory boundary. Don’t think of “inner body awareness” as a practice or doing in time. Thought is what places a practice in time. If the thought arises, “I should continue practicing inner body awareness so that I can become more present,” just notice it. That story is a lie. There is no becoming to awareness. Noticing inner body awareness is an end in and of itself. It is a present seeing. Scott Kiloby
• Noticing what is happening in the body does not simply awaken you to the life all around you. It awakens you to the realization that you are life itself. The aliveness in your body is there to wake you up out of the dream of a separate self. Feel the sensations throughout the body no matter what you are doing. Notice that there is always a sense of aliveness within. Aliveness cannot be found in time or manufactured. It is what is already happening within the body right now. If anger or fear arises, notice it without judgment. If judgments about these emotions arise, simply notice them also. Notice that these thoughts and emotions are harmless when they are seen the moment they arise. This is not a prescription to engage in a spiritual practice. This is an invitation to notice what is already being done. Are you ‘doing’ emotions? They are arising involuntarily and spontaneously, aren’t they? If you had a choice, would you choose fear or anger? Are you ‘doing’ aliveness? The aliveness in your body, from your feet to your head, is just happening. You aren’t bringing it about. Simply notice the aliveness that is already happening. Notice that this aliveness is everywhere, not just in the body. In that noticing, life is waking up to itself as One Life. Scott Kiloby

• In your body, there exists a subtle current of electricity, very subtle. But the subtler it is, the deeper it goes. It is not very visible. Scientists say that all the electricity that is in your body, if put together, can be used to light a five-candle bulb. It is not much. Quantitatively it is not much, quantitatively the atom is not much, but qualitatively… If it explodes, it has tremendous energy in it. Rajneesh
• Your body, the only one you will ever have, is the foundation of your life. And it’s either an anchor limiting your freedom and potential or a source of radiant energy, vitality and joy, elevating your life and the lives of those around you. It’ your choice‚ will yours be a source of strength, from which you will impact the world, or an obstacle, preventing you from your dreams and desires? As my friend, NFL Hall of Fame quarterback John Elway is fond of saying,’If you’re going to bother setting a goal, aim high!’  My advice to you, aim high; aim for strength. Shawn Phillips

• The object in being on the spiritual path is not to have just a little influx of energy, but to be the energy itself – consciously. Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami
• It takes a lot of energy to dull the soul and not hear its voice Susan L. Taylor

.

• As an individual learns and practices higher meditation techniques, a tremendous volume of energy and creativity flows through them. Frederick Lenz
• Sometimes people start to meditate and they get a headache. It’s because they’re trying too hard. You’re pulling in too much energy. Frederick Lenz
• Meditation means learning how to get out of this current, sit by its bank and listen to it, learn from it, and then use its energies to guide us. Jon Kabat-Zinn
• You will gain energy by meditating deeply, by speaking the truth, by learning to be still and by avoiding the crowd, most of the time, not all of the time. Frederick Lenz
• You need energy and life force to see and feel what you need to do. Otherwise you are in a dark room and you can’t tell what’s going on. You need to practice meditation. Frederick Lenz
• In Samadhi, that very deep state of meditation, you are given energy and long-lasting bliss. It carries you higher and higher until your very presence radiates love Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
• You will notice the phenomena of meditation. You may see dazzling lights, feel energy coursing through different parts of your body, feel as if you are floating, hear sounds, or smell fragrances. Frederick Lenz
• Even after only several weeks of practicing meditation, you will begin to have more energy and be a little bit happier. Eventually, you will experience ecstasy and knowledge beyond the power of words to describe! Frederick Lenz
• Gaining energy is accomplished by meditating, by right actions, right thoughts, right deeds, by studying with a real teacher or by just studying the teachings, by creating happiness in your life, and by never giving up. Frederick Lenz
• If every day you practice walking and sitting meditation and generate the energy of mindfulness and concentration and peace, you are a cell in the body of the new Buddha. This is not a dream but is possible today and tomorrow. Nhat Hanh
• There is a large difference between spacing out in the lower occult astral planes, weird, junky, fuzzy energy, and meditation. Meditation is sharp, clear, precise, perfect, luminous, shiny, happy, etheric, cosmic, and dissolute. Frederick Lenz
• Meditation is to dive all the way within, beyond thought, to the source of thought and pure consciousness. It enlarges the container, every time you transcend. When you come out, you come out refreshed, filled with energy and enthusiasm for life. David Lynch
• We can all learn to conquer hatred through love -drawing on the power released through the practice of meditation to throw all our weight, all our energy, and all our will on the side of what is patient, forgiving, and selfless in ourselves and others. Eknath Easwaran

.

Quiet, reflective time generates energy

• Usually, when the distractions of daily life deplete our energy, the first thing we eliminate is the thing we we need the most: quiet, reflective time. Time to dream, time to contemplate what’s working and what’s not, so that we can make changes for the better. Sarah Ban Breathnach

.

Emptiness generates energy

• My new work deals with emptying my body: ‘Boat emptying, stream entering.’ This means that you have to empty the body/boat to the point where you can really be connected with the fields of energy around you. I think that men and women in our Western culture are completely disconnected from that energy, and in my new work I want to make this connection possible. Marina Abramovic

.

Stillness generates energy

• Stillness is not the absence or negation of energy, life, or movement. Stillness is dynamic. It is unconflicted movement, life in harmony with itself, skill in action. It can be experienced whenever there is total, uninhibited, unconflicted participation in the moment you are in—when you are wholeheartedly present with whatever you are doing. Erich Schiffmann
• A quiet mind is all you need. All else will happen rightly, once your mind is quiet. As the sun on rising makes the world active, so does self-awareness affect changes in the mind. In the light of calm and steady self-awareness, inner energies wake up and work miracles without any effort on your part. Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj

.

Silence generates energy

• In silence, we find a new energy and a real unity. God’s energy becomes ours, allowing us to perform things well. Mother Teresa
• We need silence to be alone with God, to speak to him, to listen to him, to ponder his words deep in our hearts. We need to be alone with God in silence to be renewed and transformed. Silence gives us a new outlook on life. In it we are filled with the energy of God himself that makes us do all things with joy. Mother Teresa
• Silence is Golden; it has divine power and immense energy. Try to pay more attention to the silence than to the sounds. Eckhart Tolle
• Silence is bringing you back home, and it gives you that much needed energy to realize ‘Who You Are’, to realize that there is bliss, there is beauty, there is joy, and that is ‘You’ Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

Inner peace generates energy

• When you’re at peace with your life and in a state of tranquility, you actually send out a vibration of energy that impacts all living creatures, including plants, animals and even babies. Wayne Dyer
• Everything we do is infused with the energy with which we do it. If we’re frantic, life will be frantic. If we’re peaceful, life will be peaceful. And so our goal in any situation becomes inner peace. Marianne Williamson

.

Relaxing the body generates energy

• The more relaxed the muscles are, the more energy can flow through the body. Using muscular tensions to try to ‘do’ the punch or attempting to use brute force to knock someone over will only work to opposite effect. Bruce Lee
• The body is consuming energy when tense, and restoring energy when it is relaxed. Ronnie Lott
• The sensation of energy expands with increasing relaxation. Ilchi Lee

.

Breathing generates energy

• . . . if you close your eyes and begin to feel your breath, it will instantly become deeper and slower, and your mind will become calmer. Then gradually you’ll become aware of your body, or more precisely the subtle sense of energy inside and around your body. At that moment, you exist as Energy-Consciousness, not as names, jobs, duties, roles, desires, and so on. Ilchi Lee
• Are you open for this possibility of the energy source of breathing to go through you or are you collapsing? Are you open to this coming and going of air and the possibility-wea ther we sit, or stand, or lie-to allow this exchange of air through us? Charlotte Selver
• As breath stills our mind, our energies are free to unhook from the senses and bend inward. B.K.S. Iyengar
• Breathing affects your respiratory, cardiovascular, neurological, gastrointestinal, muscular, and psychic systems, and also has a general affect on your sleep, memory, ability to concentrate, and your energy levels. Donna Farhi
• Consider the ebb and flow of the tide. When waves come to strike the shore, they crest and fall, creating a sound. Your breath should follow the same pattern, absorbing the entire universe in your belly with each inhalation. Know that we all have access to four treasures: the energy of the sun and moon, the breath of heaven, the breath of earth, and the ebb and flow of the tide. Morihei Ueshiba
• If you just breathe, and go slower, you will have enough energy. Sandra Cisneros
• In the inhalation and exhalation there is an energy and a lively divine spirit, since He, through his spirit supports the breath of life, giving courage to the people who are in the earth and spirit to those who walk on it. Michael Servetus
• Pranayama is the practice of breath control. The word prana refers not only to breath, but also to air and life itself. Christy Turlington

.

• What we refer to as yoga is just a technology to make your energies function by choice, not by compulsion. Jaggi Vasudev
• If you do a yoga that does not change the patterns of energy within you, I would say, don’t waste your time on it. Jaggi Vasudev
• Yoga means addition – addition of energy, strength and beauty to body, mind and soul. Amit Ray
• Yoga is the method by which the restless mind is calmed And the energy directed into constructive channels. B.K.S. Iyengar
• Yoga aims to bring about a situation where the mind is quieter and more effective. It’s not only about relaxation, it’s also about improving our energy. It’s about making us more decisive and at the same time better able to judge a situation clearly. Paul Harvey
• Yoga is the only exercise on this planet from which you gain energy instead of burning energy. Bikram Choudhury
• The planes of light exist. Yoga is a method of unifying the energies of the body, the mind, and the spirit and directing them towards infinity, the planes of light. Frederick Lenz
• The power that enables us to transform our awareness is the release of kundalini. All yoga, either directly or indirectly, all Buddhism, relates to the release of the kundalini energy. Frederick Lenz
• Yoga is not just repetition of few postures – it is more about the exploration and discovery of the subtle energies of life. Amit Ray
• What we refer to as yoga is just a technology to make your energies function by choice, not by compulsion. Jaggi Vasudev
• One of yoga’s great gifts to making is the discovery of the link that exists between energy, breath, and mind. As you change one, you also change the other two.  If you excite one, the other two become excited and, conversely, if you calm one, the other two respond by becoming calm also. John Novak
• You can have calmness of mind at all times by the practice of yoga. You can have restful sleep. You can have increased energy, vigour, vitality, longevity, and a high standard of health. You can turn out efficient work within a short space of time. You can have success in every walk of life. Sivananda

Focusing on the chakras and unblocking them generates energy

• Women have very powerful second chakras, and the goal is to move that energy up and use it. Frederick Lenz
• When you focus on a chakra, it’s very easy to bring subtle physical energies into your consciousness. Frederick Lenz
• Opening your chakras and allowing cosmic energies to flow through your body will ultimately refresh your spirit and empower your life. Barbara Marciniak
• The only thing that can cause your body to hurt in your energy processing centers, [chakras] is when you are losing Spirit through one of them. Gary Zukav
• There are seven primary chakras located in the subtle physical body, the body of light and energy that is our awareness and that surrounds the physical. Frederick Lenz
• What we are doing is taking an occult energy; it’s amplifying in the chakras and the hands. Then we are neutralizing it and spreading it through the being. Frederick Lenz
• Chakras are organizational centers for the reception, assimilation, and transmission of life-force energy. They are the stepping stones between heaven and earth. Anodea Judith
• Focus your awareness on the heart chakra. As you do, you will feel your consciousness shifting. You may feel different perceptions of energy in different parts of your body. Frederick Lenz
• The kundalini is raised or brought down. It can be done in several different ways, and as it moves to the different chakras or energy centers in the subtle physical body, it endows one with various powers. Frederick Lenz
• The fifth doorway to experiencing Love for No Reason is the Doorway of Communication, which corresponds to the energy center located in the throat area. This doorway relates to speaking and listening with compassion, rather than judgment. Marci Shimoff
• Chakras are mystical energy centers that exist within the human aura. Tremendous occult power resides in a person’s chakras. Siddha masters draw upon that power during meditation, store it within themselves, and later use it to perform miracles. Frederick Lenz
• The chakras or force-centers are points of connection at which energy flows from one body of a man to another…all these wheels are perpetually rotating, and into the hub or open mouth of each a force from a higher world is always flowing. Charles Webster Leadbeater
• The chakras are specialized energy centers which connect us to the multidimensional universe. The chakras are dimensional portals within the subtle bodies which take in and process energy of higher vibrational nature so that it may be properly assimilated and used to transform the physical body. Richard Gerber
• The points or tips of the chakras, where they connect to the main power current, are called the roots or the hearts of the chakras. Within these hearts are seals which control exchange of energy between layers of the aura through that chakra. That is, each of the seven chakras has seven layers, each corresponding to a layer of the auric field. Barbara Brennan

• Prayer does not use up artificial energy, doesn’t burn up any fossil fuel, doesn’t pollute. Neither does song, neither does love, neither does the dance. Margaret Mead
• Action is the normal completion of the act of will which begins as prayer. That action is not always external, but it is always some kind of effective energy. William Ralph Inge
• God never answers prayers. It is people who answer their own prayers by knowing how to connect and utilize the divine energy of the Creator and the God-like force in their own souls. Yehuda Berg
• Prayer is energy, the energy of love and transformative power. It is given to us to use for the good of all creation. In prayer God gives us the fuel of life, and asks us to live it. Margaret Silf
• The act of praying is the very highest energy of which the human mind is capable; praying, that is, with the total concentration of the faculties. The great mass of worldly men and of learned men are absolutely incapable of prayer. Samuel Taylor Coleridge
• Draw nigh to God, so that you may dread the grave as little as your bed. Draw nigh to God, that you may live a happy and useful life. Drawing nigh to God is the most concentrated energy of the soul. Effective prayer is the fruit of a relationship with God, not a technique for acquiring blessings. D. A. Carson
• Prayer that works is prayer that makes a difference, contemplation that turns into action, on behalf of peace and justice in a troubled and unjust world system. Prayer is energy, the energy of love and transformative power. It is given to us to use for the good of all creation. In prayer God gives us the fuel of life, and asks us to live it. Margaret Silf
• Prayer is a means of sharing the burden, which relieves pressure, as you tell your worries and concerns to someone who will listen and won’t judge, no matter what you say. Praying is like handing the problem over to someone else as you talk it out. Then you can tune in for guidance and a different perspective that will exude heartfelt energy. Lucinda Bassett

.

Faith generates energy

• Faith is indeed the energy of our whole universe directed to the highest form of being. Faith gives stability to our view of the universe. Brooke Westcott
• What most people perceive as energy is really strength of spirit. It comes from the joy of knowing God, loving Him, and being loved by Him. Kathie Lee Gifford
• Don’t use your energy to worry. Use your energy to believe. Joel Osteen
• Embrace the faith that every challenge surmounted by your energy; every problem solved by your wisdom; every soul stirred by your passion; and every barrier to justice brought down by your determination will ennoble your life, inspire others, serve your country, and explode outward the boundaries of what is achievable on this earth. Madeleine Albright
• Every sort of energy and endurance, of courage and capacity for handling life’s evils, is set free in those who have religious faith. William James
• Faith makes you stable and steady. It brings out the totality in you. Consolidation of your energy is faith. Dissemination of energy is doubt. Sri Sri Ravi Shankar

.

Worship generates energy

• Prayer, worship, ritual are fundamentally “energy work” Flora A. Keshgegian

.

Devotion generates energy

• Devotion is the spark that can fire up your chemistry and energy to such a level that it creates an explosion of ecstasy within you. Jaggi Vasudev
• We cannot make up for failure in our devotional life by redoubling energy in service. We shall never take people beyond our own spiritual attainment. William Griffith Thomas
• If you desire to be pure, have firm faith, and slowly go on with your devotional practices without wasting your energy in useless scriptural discussions and arguments. Your little brain will otherwise be muddled. Ramakrishna

.

Being in the presence of a spiritual master generates energy

• It is very important to always hold the thought of an enlightened teacher in your mind in a very positive way. When you direct negative energy towards someone who is powerful, it has a terrible bounce-back effect. Frederick Lenz
• At times your entire body tingles with ecstasy as you feel the waves of psychic energy that emanate from the master’s aura touching your own body. Frederick Lenz
• The teacher is not a person; they’re a field of energy. They’re a series of levels of attention. While they have a body and appear to be there, they’re not. Frederick Lenz

Sexual energy generates energy

• Sexual energy between two people is a primal force comprised of power (energy that moves toward another) and virtue (knowing the energy between the two is right). Alexandra Katehakis
• I think a sexual energy is a positive energy. Emily Haines
• Sex energy is the creative energy of all geniuses. There never has been, and never will be a great leader, builder or artist lacking in the driving force of sex. Napoleon Hill
• When the sexual energy of the people is liberated they will break the chains. Julian Beck
• Inspiration is the richest nation I know, the most powerful on earth. Sexual energy Freud calls it; the capital of desire I call it; it pays for both mental and physical expenditure. Sylvia Ashton-Warner
• Where those two energies [male and female energies] intersect, all creativity is possible. We already have divine creative energy within us. And what is the most powerful of these energies? The energy that patriarchy and misogyny constantly try to repress. The divine female sexual energy. The creative energy of the female. That is why I worship divine sexual female energy. Russell Brand
• The Tantric sects of Hinduism and Buddhism see sex as a symbolic expression of the unity of the universe and believe that sexual partners can directly experience the bliss that is the nature of the absolute reality of the universe. According to Tantra, the whole of the body is filled with divine energy which becomes aroused during sex and which we can learn to control. Steve Taylor
• Spiritualizing sex is actually a movement of energy—feeling and emotion—that rises within you and moves into your sexual physicality as an alive, tender, erotic, or passionate expression. Alexandra Katehakis
• To my understanding, sex is your only energy, it is life energy. What you do with it depends on you. It can become sin, and it can become also your highest peak of consciousness. It all depends on you how you use the energy. Rajneesh
• The meditative person can transform his sexuality without any antagonism. without any conflict. He is in deep friendship with all his energies, sexual or others; he is not in any fight. Why fight with your own energies? Love them, rejoice in them, and help them to transcend the lower forms, the animal forms. Let them move from the body towards the turiya, the fourth. Rajneesh
• The person who is free of sexuality, whose sexuality has become a transformed phenomenon, is also free of money, is also free of ambition, is also free of the desire to be famous. Immediately all these things disappear from his life. The moment sex energy starts rising upwards, the moment sex energy starts becoming love, prayer, meditation, then all lower manifestations disappear. Rajneesh
• You can open to God through sex. By learning to open your heart and body while embracing and trusting all energies from rough ravishment to sublime gentleness, you can open to be lived by the mystery that lives the entire universe. You can open to be lived by love with no limits, so you are alive as love, offering the deepest gifts of your heart spontaneously and without hesitation, in every moment, at work, with your family and friends, as well as in bed with your lover. David Deida
• It’s funny, people who have a lot of sexual energy think of themselves as being not spiritual. They are probably more spiritually inclined. All that sexual energy is kundalini. Frederick Lenz

.

Virtue and the practice of virtue generates energy

• Virtue is reason which has become energy. Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
• All virtue lies in individual action, in inward energy, in self determination. There is no moral worth in being swept away by a crowd even toward the best objective. William Ellery Channing
• He that has energy enough to root out a vice should go further, and try to plant a virtue in its place. Charles Caleb Colton
• For there is a virtue in truth; it has an almost mystic power. Like radium, it seems to give off forever and ever grains of energy, atoms of light. Virginia Woolf
• Every conquering temptation represents a new fund of moral energy. Every trial endured and weathered in the right spirit makes a soul nobler and stronger than it was before. William Butler Yeats

.

Nature generates energy

• Often I’ll go outside and just place my hands on the soil, even if there’s no work to do on it. When I am filled with worries, I do that and I can feel the energy of the mountains and of the trees. Andy Couturier
• For me, surfing is as close a connection I can have with Mother Nature. To surf, you’re riding a pulse of energy from Mother Nature. And it’s strong. It’s real. It’s there. And you’re dancing with that. You’re connecting with that. You’re might be the only person in the history of the universe that connects with that particular pulse of energy. Xavier Rudd
• Overall, rocks, wood and water, brooded the spirit of repose, and the silent energy of nature stirred the soul to its innermost depths. Thomas Cole
• I love feeling in touch with Mother Nature. Spending time outside – whether it’s hiking, biking, walking on the beach, or lying in the sun – brings me clarity and energy. Chelsea Krost
• There are many ways to calm a negative energy without suppressing or fighting it. You recognize it, you smile to it, and you invite something nicer to come up and replace it; you read some inspiring words, you listen to a piece of beautiful music, you go somewhere in nature, or you do some walking meditation. Nhat Hanh
• The ground we walk on, the plants and creatures, the clouds above constantly dissolving into new formations – each gift of nature possessing its own radiant energy, bound together by cosmic harmony. Ruth Bernhard
• There is a muscular energy in sunlight corresponding to the spiritual energy of wind. Annie Dillard
• Only those in tune with nature seem to pick up on the energy in wind. All sorts of things get swept off in the breeze — ghosts, pieces of soul, voices unsung, thoughts repressed, love uncherished, and a thousand galore of spiritual ether. Wind is an emotional rush because emotions are rushing by. Terri Guillemets
• It was not that the jagged precipices were lofty, that the encircling woods were the dimmest shade, or that the waters were profoundly deep; but that over all, rocks, wood, and water, brooded the spirit of repose, and the silent energy of nature stirred the soul to its inmost depths. Thomas Cole
• The sun was shining very brightly, and yet there was an exhilarating nip in the air, which set an edge to a man’s energy. Arthur Conan Doyle
• I still love to walk in the mountains or be on the sea. I like to be in nature. Sometimes I bicycle. It’s important to feel good with your body. The body is extremely important. If you feel good, you have more energy in your singing. Cecilia Bartoli
• Mountains are to the rest of the body of the earth, what violent muscular action is to the body of man. The muscles and tendons of its anatomy are, in the mountain, brought out with force and convulsive energy, full of expression, passion, and strength. John Ruskin
• Overall, rocks, wood and water, brooded the spirit of repose, and the silent energy of nature stirred the soul to its innermost depths. Thomas Cole
• I love feeling in touch with Mother Nature. Spending time outside – whether it’s hiking, biking, walking on the beach, or lying in the sun – brings me clarity and energy. Chelsea Krost
• Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature’s peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn. John Muir
• With each spring comes new life, energy and green growth. In summer comes the sun, warm, kind and enduring. Fall brings its canvas of color in careful, gentle change. Winter brews into faithful strength, beauty in pure white. And then comes you. You are all that Nature offers, a blessing, a gift.. You are the fifth season. Jason F. Wright

.

Letting go generates energy

• The way past despair and false hope is just letting go. It doesn’t improve your odds of survival, but it doesn’t waste mental energy. James Alan Gardner

.

Healing trauma generates energy

• We are kept from the experience of Spirit because our inner world is cluttered with past traumas . . . As we begin to clear away this clutter, the energy of divine light and love begins to flow through our being. Thomas Keating

.

Being comfortable with death generates energy

• I was taught to confront things you can’t avoid. Death is one of those things. To live in a society where you’re trying not to look at it is stupid because looking at death throws us back into life with more vigour and energy. The fact that flowers don’t last for ever makes them beautiful. Damien Hirst

.

Effective leadership generates energy

• Leadership is not just about giving energy … it’s unleashing other people’s energy. Paul Polman

.

Emotional self-care generates energy

• Just as physical energy comes from diet, exercise and rest, emotional energy comes from the ways you take care of yourself emotionally — living in a way that makes you feel inspired, hopeful, self-confident, playful, loving and in touch with what you care about most. Mira Kirshenbaum

.

Thinking energising thoughts generates energy

• The secret to abundant energy is simply this: Focus your mind on energizing thoughts and invigorate your body with regular exercise. Put the two together on a daily basis, and you will become a human dynamo in no time! Che Garman
• Thoughts create a new heaven, a new firmament, a new source of energy, from which new arts flow. Paracelsus

.

Beauty generates energy

• Some days, it seems to me like the purpose of life is to convert energy into beauty. Hank Green
• Beauty is more than just shining for others. You don’t need to have the perfect face to be beautiful. Being ugly or beautiful is a matter of energy, and true beauty comes from the heart. Kristen Stewart
• Energy is more attractive than beauty in a man. Louisa May Alcott

.

Fresh beginnings generate energy

• USE this time of fresh beginnings. Use it as an impetus, the force or energy toward change. Become stronger, a better leader, more focused in your thoughts. Exert more influence over your dreams by bringing them closer to your thoughts, every day. Mary Anne Radmacher

.

Balance generates energy

• Just as your car runs more smoothly and requires less energy to go faster and farther when the wheels are in perfect alignment, you perform better when your thoughts, feelings, emotions, goals, and values are in balance. Brian Tracy

.

Releasing energy generates energy

• Where does she get all the energy? Where does he get all the energy? Nobody GET’s energy. Everybody releases energy. Bob Proctor

.

Understanding generates energy

• Understanding transforms, it does not sublimate. If you understand, anger disappears and the same energy becomes compassion. Not that you sublimate: anger simply disappears, and the energy that was involved, invested in anger, is released and becomes compassion. When you understand hate, hate disappears and the same energy becomes love. Love is not against hate — it is absence of hate. Rajneesh

.

Good surroundings generates energy

• It is really important that you live in a place that has good energy. Where you sleep, where you dream, where you meditate, where you spend a lot of time is key. Frederick Lenz
• Establish an atmosphere that energizes you. Some creative people flourish in confusion; others need to be free from interruption. Many prepare themselves for work by exercising to stimulate circulation; others meditate to quiet the chatter of the outer world. Nita Leland

.

Improvement generates energy

• Where I get my energy is: ‘How can I make it better’? Sara Blakely

.

Habit and rituals conserve energy

• Habit: The great economizer of energy. Elbert Hubbard
• Good habits, which bring our lower passions and appetites under automatic control, leave our natures free to explore the larger experiences of life. Too many of us divide and dissipate our energies in debating actions which should be taken for granted. Ralph Washington Sockman
• Our joy, peace and happiness depend very much on our practice of recognizing and transforming habit energies. There are positive habit energies that we have to cultivate, and negative habit energies that we have to recognize, embrace and transform. The energy with which we do these things is mindfulness. Nhat Hanh
• Creating positive rituals is the most powerful means we have found to effectively manage energy in the service of full engagement. Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz
• The power of rituals is that they insure that we use as little conscious energy as possible where it is not absolutely necessary, leaving us free to strategically focus the energy available to us in creative, enriching ways. Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz

.

Releasing old energies generates energy

• Release old concepts and energies that keep you in self-punishment patterns. Release old stories and create from a place of love and self-validation. You are worth it! Gautama Buddha

.

Acting energetic generates energy

• To be energetic, act energetic. W. Clement Stone

.

Music generates energy

• Jazz is the result of the energy stored up in America. George Gershwin
• A good groove releases adrenaline in your body. You feel uplifted, you feel centered, you feel calm, you feel powerful. You feel that energy. That’s what good drumming is all about. Mickey Hart
• Live music is the most primal form of energy release you can share with other people besides having sex or taking drugs. Kurt Cobain
• The grace is being able to like rock music, symphony music, jazz;¶ anything that contains the original energy of joy. Charles Bukowski
• Music is sunshine. Like sunshine, music is a powerful force that can instantly and almost chemically change your entire mood. Music gives us new energy and a stronger sense of purpose. Michael Franti
• Music is a potent energy force. John Seagall
• Music goes deeper than emotion into the energies that animate our psychic life. Roger Sessions
• Listening to music as preparation or background for your work brings you into a creative mood… choose one type of music to calm down, another to reach a higher energy level, depending on the artwork you are doing. Nita Leland
• On the other hand technology brings within your reach the great therapy of music; this activates the inner living cells of your body, stimulates the energy of the inner self and helps to unite the conscious mind with the other portions of your being. Seth
• Rhythm is a means of organizing sound into specific energy formulas to harmonize the mind and body. Chanting, rhythmic breathing and drumming form an ancient technology for directly synchronizing the mind/body complex, creating conditions for psychological and physical healing. Layne Redmond
• The music is just very specifically [designed] to get you energized. That’s the great thing about those situations: I have no choice. It completely takes over your body and pushes you, like it was designed to do. I’m constantly surrounded by music, energy, and experiences that put me in that state of cheer. Andrew W.K.
• Music has always been a matter of Energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel. I have always needed Fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio. Hunter S. Thompson
• Music is the one universal language. It’s your best friend when the chips are down, and it’s better than any energy drink when you’re feeling it. Dave Smalley

.

Dance generates energy

• Head held high and lips parted, she breathed in the music, sending it through her torso and arms and legs the way the Tai Chi teacher told us to breath the air, transforming it into energy, motion. Dancing is the body’s song, and Bess sang. Lynne Sharon Schwartz
• The dance lives in all mankind as a necessary motor-rhythmic expression of excess energy and the joy of living. Curt Sachs
• When you dance, do you feel desire? Do you feel as if you were summoning up a greater energy? When you dance, are there moments when you cease to be yourself? Paulo Coelho
• With dance, you learn to channel nerves into energy, excited energy. Mia Wasikowska
• Dance releases energy mobilized by the fight-or-flight stress response that was otherwise restrained. Judith Lynne Hanna

.

Chaos can generate energy

• Something is aware of even the energy of confusion inside of you. There is no need to get unconfused. Leave it – it will pass. Mooji
• Space , time , mass, and energy originate from Chaos , have their being in Chaos, and through th agency of the aether are moved by Chaos into the multiple forms of existence. Peter J. Carroll
• Writing is magic because it harnesses the energy generated by the chaos within. Linda Gray
• Life, this anti-entropy, ceaselessly reloaded with energy, is a climbing force, toward order amidst chaos, toward light, among the darkness of the indefinite, toward the mystic dream of Love, between the fire which devours itself and the silence of the Cold. Albert Claude
• I’m very moved by chaos theory, and that sense of energy. That quantum physics. We don’t really, in Hindu tradition, have a father figure of a God. It’s about cosmic energy, a little spark of which is inside every individual as the soul. Bharati Mukherjee
• I think you should ride the line between fatigue and chaos. The chaos keeps the energy level and spontaneity maximized, while fatigue is just over the edge, and you should try to avoid it. Ted Nugent
• Yes, God is a verb, the most active, connoting the vast harmonic reordering of the universe from unleashed chaos of energy. Buckminster Fuller
• Space, time, mass, and energy originate from Chaos, have their being in Chaos, and through the agency of the aether are moved by Chaos into the multiple forms of existence. Some of the various densities of the aether have only a partial or probablistic differentiation into existence, and are somewhat indeterminate in space and time. In the same way that mass exists as a curvature in space-time, extending with a gradually diminishing force to infinity that we recognize as gravity, so do all events, particularly events involving the human mind, send ripples through all creation. Peter J. Carroll

.

Language is energy

• The three ingredients of poetry: the mystery of the universe, spiritual curiosity, the energy of language. Mary Oliver

.

Words generate energy

• Magic is a kind of energy. It is given shape by human thoughts and emotions, by imagination. Thoughts define that shape‚ and words help to define those thoughts. That’s why wizards usually use words to help them with their spells. Words provide a sort of insulation as the energy of magic burns through a spell caster’s mind. Jim Butcher
• Words ride on the energy of tone, its warmth or coldness; think of tone as the music of how words are expressed. You want this music to be soulful, whether you’re giving sweet talk or tough love. Judith Orloff
• I just love any kind of language that can change the energy in a room. Phoebe Waller-Bridge
• Creative words generate energy; negative words drain out energy. Robert H. Schuller
• I mean, language fascinates me anyway, and different words have different energies and you can change the whole drive of a sentence. Alan Rickman
• Kind words are a creative force, a power that concurs in the building up of all that is good, and energy that showers blessings upon the world. Lawrence G. Lovasik
• Your own words are the bricks and mortar of the dreams you want to realize. Behind every word flows energy. Sonia Choquette
• Behind every word flows energy. If you use your words to gossip or babble about what you are going to do before you do it, then you are siphoning off the energy needed to actually do the work. Your words become an energy leak. Sonia Choquette

.

Poetry generates energy

• The body of poetry is nothing but energy, waves, rhythm. Kim Hyesoon
• Poetry is a natural energy resource of our country. Richard Eberhart

.

Embracing and integrating our shadow side generates energy

• We all need to look into the dark side of our nature – that’s where the energy is, the passion. People are afraid of that because it holds pieces of us we’re busy denying. Sue Grafton
• True healing comes from owning and accepting all of life’s energies within ourselves….When they are allowed to be expressed, they take their places as important facets of our nature. There is no split between ‘good’ and ‘bad.’ Shakti Gawain
• We all have a dark side. Most of us go through life avoiding direct confrontation with that aspect of ourselves, which I call the shadow self. There’s a reason why. It carries a great deal of energy. Lorraine Toussaint
• There are things that are shadow sides of the creative energy that are negative and all that kind of stuff. The only thing that I say to myself is, in the spirit of that quote from the Gnostic Gospels: Writing is a way to let all that stuff out into the sun. George Saunders
• Darkness is a lower energy than light, and when you bring light to the presence of darkness you don’t have to warn it, you don’t have to tell it that it has to get away. It can’t survive. Light dissolves darkness. And so does love dissolve hate and so does joy dissolve sadness and so does faith dissolve doubt and so on. Wayne Dyer

.

Tapping into the unconscious generates energy

• We have learned that beneath the surface of an ordinary everyday normal casual conscious existence there lies a vast dynamic world of impulse and dream, a hinterland of energy which has an independent existence of its own and laws of its own: laws which motivate all our thoughts and our actions. Robert Edmond Jones

• Make friends with your unconscious life. That’s a great source of energy. Malcolm Morley

• A complex is a cluster of energy in the unconscious, charged by historic events, reinforced through repitition, embodying a fragment of our personality, and generating a programmed response and an implicit set of expectations. Carl Jung
• The more you work with your dreams and your unconscious, and honor it, the more you understand it and it understands you. When you develop a relationship with your psyche this way, you begin to carry that energy into life and your relationships. Marion Woodman
• We tend to misunderstand the colour black, seeing it as evil, or negation of life. Rather, black means all things being possible, infinite energy of life before consciousness has constructed any boundaries. When we fear blackness or darkness we fear the deep unconscious source of life itself. Rachel Pollack

Fixation on the past wastes energy

• Remembrance of the past kills all present energy and deadens all hope for the future Maxim Gorky

.

Fear wastes energy

• Fear is the destructive energy in man. It withers the mind, it distorts thought, it leads to all kinds of extraordinarily clever and subtle theories, absurd superstitions, dogmas, and beliefs. Jiddu Krishnamurti
• When we function from a fearful, low-level energetic state, our thoughts and energy can literally pollute the world. Gabrielle Bernstein
• Fear, anger, stubbornness, and distrust portray themselves as your rescuers. Actually these energies only make you more closed off. Tell yourself: Nobody ever solved a situation by panicking; no one ever solved a situation by refusing to hear new answers; no one solved a situation by shutting down. Deepak Chopra
• The emotion of fear often works overtime. Even when there is no immediate threat, our body may remain tight and on guard, our mind narrowed to focus on what might go wrong. When this happens, fear is no longer functioning to secure our survival. We are caught in the trance of fear and our moment-to-moment experience becomes bound in reactivity. We spend our time and energy defending our life rather than living it fully. Tara Brach
• If you find yourself focusing on negative scenarios, ask us angels to transmute this fearful energy into love. Doreen Virtue

.

Repressing pain wastes energy

• We either misdirect or depress great amounts of energy in order to keep ourselves from feeling pain, including what we feel in the moment and being who we are in the moment. Barbara Brennan

.

Excessive desire wastes energy

• Moved by their selfish desires, people seek after fame and glory. But when they have acquired it, they are already stricken in years. If you hanker after worldly fame and practise not the Way, your labors are wrongfully applied and your energy is wasted. It is like unto burning an incense stick. However much its pleasing odor be admired, the fire that consumes is steadily burning up the stick. Gautama Buddha

.

Trying to cheer others up wastes energy

• If someone decides they’re not going to be happy, it’s not your problem. You don’t have to spend your time and energy trying to cheer up someone who has already decided to stay in a bad mood. Believe it or not, you can actually hurt people by playing into their self-pity. Joyce Meyer

.

Excessive thought wastes energy

• When you are just thinking a lot of silly thoughts and having a lot of worries, you waste a tremendous energy and power and you put yourself into very limited states of mind. You slow down your evolutionary process. Frederick Lenz
• Many people live with a tormentor in their head that continuously attacks and punishes them and drains them of vital energy. It is the cause of untold misery and unhappiness, as well as of disease. Eckhart Tolle

.

Forcibly trying to stop thinking wastes energy

• The trick to not thinking is not adding energy to the equation in an effort to forcibly stop thinking from happening. It’s more a matter of subtracting energy from the equation in order not to barf the thoughts up and start chewing them over again. Brad Warner
• When you relate to thoughts obsessively, you are actually feeding them because thoughts need your attention to survive. Once you begin to pay attention to them and categorize them, then they become very powerful. You are feeding them energy because you are not seeing them as simple phenomena. If one tries to quiet them down, that is another way of feeding them. Chogyam Trungpa

.

Trying to control thought wastes energy

• The irony of the process of thought control: the more energy you put into trying to control your ideas and what you think about, the more your ideas end up controlling you. Nassim Nicholas Taleb

.

Excessive need for security wastes energy

• We spend all our energy and waste our lives trying to re-create these zones of safety, which are always falling apart. That’s the essence of samsara – the cycle of suffering that comes from continuing to seek happiness in all the wrong places. Pema Chodron

.

The negative energies of others can waste our energy…

• There are billions of people on earth. They are all transmitting thoughts and impressions, most of which are not directed towards enlightenment. If you are not focused, you will pick up these energies. Frederick Lenz
• Thoughts are like bullets. They go right to you. You’re like the target. When you walk around and you are depressed or there is fatigue or a behavior which you’re not used to, that can be someone else’s energy on you. You need to know how to clean that off. James Van Praagh
• If you focus on another person you take their energy in your body completely. Frederick Lenz
• I find that being with other people dissipates my energy. Tenzin Palmo
• There are primarily two ways people can drain your energy. They can get you to want them or what they have or they can get you to fear them. In order to drain you they must get into your attention field. Frederick Lenz
• It’s very easy for me to take on other people’s energy, so my personal mantra is ” Love yourself, love yourself, love yourself. ” RuPaul
• Negative people deplete your energy. Surround yourself with love and nourishment and do not allow the creation of negativity in your environment. Deepak Chopra
• Don’t waste another minute dealing with a toxic, negative, energy-draining person. Some people are wired for negativity. They love being argumentative, combative and abusive. Run for your life as quickly as possible. Les Brown
• When you deal with people, it tends to drag your energy down – if those people are in a lower auric state than you. If you meditate and they don’t, then by the end of the day you tend to be more drained. Frederick Lenz
• Even if you have a lot of work to do, if you think of it as wonderful, and if you feel it as wonderful, it will transform into the energy of joy and fire, instead of becoming a burden. Tulku Thondup

.

…particularly energy vampires

• Say goodbye to the energy vampires in your life (the negative souls who steal your enthusiasm). Robin Sharma
• I stay away from negative relationships. They are energy-sapping vampires. I can’t handle them. Preity Zinta
• Don’t let negative people drain your energy. Focus on your positive energy and kill them with kindness.  Energy vampires are no match for your positive energy. Jon Gordon
• We have two choices when things pile up at work or we’re surrounded by energy vampires who leave us feeling depleted. We can get frantic, hyperventilate, shut down, and become reactive. Needless to say, these responses to stress just make us more stressed. Surrendered people have the ability to pause, take a deep breath, and observe. Judith Orloff

.

Boredom wastes energy

• You only lose energy when life becomes dull in your mind. Your mind gets bored and therefore tired of doing nothing. Norman Vincent Peale
• Never be bored. Energy lives off of attention. When you are bored you get drained. Frederick Lenz

.

Pretending wastes energy

• Maybe you feel pressure to be positive because so many people rely on your good, fake-positive energy? If that’s the case, screw everybody else. You’re not a bottle of Valium. Augusten Burroughs

.

Self-denial wastes energy

• Ours is a society of denial that conditions us to protect ourselves from any direct difficulty and discomfort. We expend enormous energy denying our insecurity, fighting pain, death and loss and hiding from the basic truths of the natural world and of our own nature. Jack Kornfield

.

Resisting the inevitable and trying to control the uncontrollable wastes energy

• As we stop fighting the inevitable, we release energy that enables us to create a richer life. Dale Carnegie
• What you resist, persists. If you are resisting something, you are feeding it. Any energy you actively fight, you are feeding.  If you are using negative energy to push something away, you are inviting it to stay.  Marc and Angel Chernoff
• Most people spend so much time and energy trying to do the impossible—namely, to change and control the actions of others—that they wrongly believe that they cannot achieve a quite possible goal—to change their own thoughts and acts. Robert A. Harper
• Invest your energy in the things you can control. Steve Backley
• Don’t worry about what you can’t control. Our focus and energy needs to be on the things we CAN control. Attitude, effort, focus- these are the things we can control. Tim Tebow
• Let go of what you can’t control. Channel all that energy into living fully in the now. Karen Salmansohn
• We’re all spending way too much of our time and energy trying to fight the stuff we can’t change. Gayle King

.

Maintaining our sense of separateness and protecting it wastes energy

• The belief in a separate self that we must protect sucks up so much psychic energy. Anthony Lambert
• Attention to my ego (when I seek power and control over others or seek approval from others) consumes the greatest amount of energy. Deepak Chopra
• With the ego ‘gobbling up’ so much of our mental energy, there’s very little available for us to use in perceiving the world around us. Steve Taylor
• When your internal reference point is the ego, when you seek power and control over other people or seek approval from others, you spend energy in a wasteful way. Deepak Chopra
• In ordinary life a lot of our psychic energy is taken up with ‘preoccupation with the self’, but in a state of ‘flow’ we forget ourselves, and so the psychic energy we normally waste is retained. Steve Taylor
• The separate entity thrives on trying to make the mind peaceful, and in doing so only perpetuates the agitation that is at the heart of itself. Leave the mind to be as it is, and remain as you are. Rupert Spira
• The actual structure of the ego requires a lot of energy to be maintained, in the same way that the physical structures of the body, such as our bones and internal organs, need a constant input of energy to maintain themselves. Steve Taylor
• The actual structure of the ego requires a lot of energy to be maintained too, in the same way that the physical structures of the body, such as our bones and internal organs, need a constant input of energy to maintain themselves. Steve Taylor
• Most of our energy goes into maintaining our own importance. If we were capable of losing some of that importance, two extraordinary things would happen to us. One, we would free ourselves from trying to maintain the illusory idea of our grandeur; and two, we would provide ourselves with enough energy to catch a glimpse of the actual grandeur of the universe. Deepak Chopra
• Where does the ego get its energy? The ego feeds off your desire to be something else. You are poor and you want to be rich – the ego is absorbing energy, its life-breath. You are ignorant and you want to become a wise one – the ego is absorbing energy. You are a wretched nobody and you want to become powerful – the ego is absorbing energy. Rajneesh
• Our strong ego structure needs a great deal of energy in order to function, in the same way that a massive house with dozens of room requires – and uses up – a lot of electricity. In particular, our constant thought-chatter uses up a lot of energy. As the modern-day American mystic Bernadette Roberts puts it, ‘The continual movement [of thoughts] inward and outward, back and forward … consumes an untold amount of energy that is otherwise left free when the mind is restricted to the now-moment. Steve Taylor

.

Maintaining our sense of importance wastes energy

• In the Art of Dreaming Don Juan tells Carlos, “… most of our energy goes into upholding our importance… if we were capable of losing some of that importance, two extraordinary things would happen to us. One, we would free our energy from trying to maintain the illusory idea of our grandeur; and two we would provide ourselves with enough energy to … catch a glimpse of the actual grandeur of the universe.” Carlos Castaneda
• Most people go through life using up half their energy trying to protect a dignity they never had. Raymond Chandler

.

Negative thoughts and emotions waste energy

• From an energy perspective, negative emotions are costly and inefficient. Much like a gas- guzzling car, they draw down our energy stores at a rapid rate. Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz
• It is impossible to feel energetic if we exercise tired thinking. When we dwell on those things in life that drain us, we not only spend an immense amount of mental energy, but we also feel it physically. Che Garman
• If you feel dog-tired at night, maybe it’s because you growled all day.

• Distraction wastes our energy, concentration restores it. Sharon Salzberg

.

Perfectionism wastes energy

• Perfectionism is self-destructive simply because there is no such thing as perfect.

Brene Brown

• Negative feelings are in you, not in reality. Stop trying to change reality. That’s crazy! Stop trying to change the other person.

Negative feelings are in you. Anthony de Mello
• The energy you’ll expend focusing on someone else’s life is better spent working on your own. Just be your own idol. Sophia Amoruso

It also creates bio-chemical reactions which harm the body, producing everything from indigestion to coronary arrest, and a multitude of things in between. Neale Donald Walsch
• Work kills no one, but worry has killed multitudes… Worry not only saps vitality and wastes energy, but it also seriously affects the quality of one’s work. It cuts down ability. A man cannot get the highest quality of efficiency into his work when his mind is troubled. The mental faculties must have perfect freedom before they will give out their best. A troubled brain cannot think clearly, vigorously, and logically. Orison S. Marden
• There are very few things in the mind which eat up as much energy as worry. It is one of the most difficult things not to worry about anything. Worry is experienced when things go wrong, but in relation to past happenings it is idle merely to wish that they might have been otherwise. The frozen past is what it is, and no amount of worrying is going to make it other than what it has been. But the limited ego-mind identifies itself with its past, gets entangled with it and keeps alive the pangs of frustrated desires. Meher Baba

.

Obsessing about image wastes energy

• The real thinkers of the world aren’t the best dressed. Staying on top of the latest fashions, accessorizing, and presenting oneself is time consuming.

Envy wastes energy

• When envy lies within a woman’s heart it cuts into her soul and gives her a toxic spirit.

Envy is a brutal force of bad vibes sucking the love right out of your heart. Bindu
• A note of caution: We can never achieve goals that envy sets for us. Looking at your friends and wishing you had what they had is a waste of precious energy. Because we are all unique, what makes another happy may do the opposite for you. That’s why advice is nice but often disappointing when heeded. Marcus Buckingham

.

Self-pity wastes energy

• I never waste my energy feeling bad for myself. Sam Berns

Judging, blaming and comparing wastes energy

• Comparison is a slippery slope to envy and for the most part, envy wastes energy that could be put towards getting what you want or optimizing what you have. Danielle LaPorte
• Judge yourself and beware of passing judgement on others. In judging others we expend our energy to no purpose; we are often mistaken and easily sin. But if we judge ourselves our labour is always to our profit. Thomas a Kempis
• One of the cardinal rules of joyful loving is that judging others takes a great deal of energy and without exception, pulls you away from where you want to be. Richard Carlson
• People spend too much time finding other people to blame, too much energy finding excuses for not being what they are capable of being, and not enough energy putting themselves on the line, growing out of the past, and getting on with their lives. Michael Straczynski
• More than anything else, judgment will take you out of the present moment. It will take you out of Oneness into separation. Whenever judgment arises within you, just notice it. Acknowledge it. Confess it. It is just an energy arising within you. Do not judge it or try to get rid of it. Just bring it to consciousness with love, acceptance and compassion. In this way, judgment will be transformed into love. Leonard Jacobson

.

Needing to be right wastes energy

• Being right, defending our positions, takes an enormous amount of mental energy and often alienates us from the people in our lives. Needing to be right – or needing someone else to be wrong – encourages others to become defensive and puts pressure on us to keep defending. Richard Carlson
• When you are genuinely strong, you neither attack nor defend and so retain your energy. Vernon Howard

.

Worrying what others think wastes energy

.

Trying to please others wastes energy

• Why, when we know that there’s no such thing as perfect, do most of us spend an incredible amount of time and energy trying to be everything to everyone? Is it that we really admire perfection? No – the truth is that we are actually drawn to people who are real and down-to-earth. We love authenticity and we know that life is messy and imperfect. Brene Brown
• Don’t waste your energy on those who don’t get on your bus. Jon Gordon
• You can waste so much energy trying to make everyone happy, but at the end of the day it’s impossible to please everyone, so you just need to focus on what makes you happy. Lauren Conrad
• There’s a fine line between helping others and being a people pleaser, and mistaking one for the other can be hugely detrimental. When we put others’ needs before our own, we deplete our energy, which can lead to depression, physical illness, and overwhelm. Gabrielle Bernstein

.

Wishing the past was different wastes energy

• To pine for an alternative past is a waste of energy. In the pristine world of your infinite spiritual self, there is no sin or negative energy. There is only compassion, learning, and unconditional love and forgiveness. Remind yourself and those around you of this fact. In the light of God, everything is healed and seen to be perfect. Stuart Wilde
• It doesn’t seem to be worth wasting a lot of energy on attempting to rewrite the past. Douglas Tompkins
• You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don’t try to forget the mistakes, but you don’t dwell on it. You don’t let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space. Johnny Cash

.

Clutter wastes energy

.

Guilt wastes energy

• Clearly, a civilization that feels guilty for everything it is and does will lack the energy and conviction to defend itself. Jean Francois Revel

• Dealing with complexity is an inefficient and unnecessary waste of time, attention and mental energy. There is never any justification for things being complex when they could be simple. Edward de Bono

.

Hatred wastes energy

• Something almost as physical as walls, pianos, or nurses. She could almost touch the destructive energy leaking out of her body.

Veronika wanted to spend her remaining two or three days of life behaving as inappropriately as she could. Paulo Coelho
• When I think of the energy I wasted hating you… Gillian Taylforth
• I hate no one, sir. It seems a waste of emotional energy. Robert Silverberg

Incessant thinking and hanging onto negative beliefs wastes energy

• It takes a lot more energy to fail than to succeed, since it takes a lot of concentrated energy to hold on to beliefs that don’t work. Jerry Gillies
• I would say about 80 to 90 percent of most people’s thinking is not only repetitive and useless, but because of its dysfunctional and often negative nature, much of it is also harmful. Observe your mind and you will find this to be true. It causes a serious leakage of vital energy. Eckhart Tolle

.

Resistance to what is wastes energy

• Stop the mindless wishing that things would be different. Rather than wasting time and emotional and spiritual energy in explaining why we don’t have what we want, we can start to pursue other ways to get it. Greg Anderson

.

Resistance to change wastes energy

• How much time, creative energy, and emotion do we expend resisting change because we assume growth must always be painful? Much personal growth is uncomfortable, but it’s worse to thwart the ascent of your authenticity. Sarah Ban Breathnach
• Remember that “needing” something to change will always flow negative energy and hold it to you. Finding a way to become excited about what it will be changing into will flow positive energy and get the desired revisions started. Lynn Grabhorn

.

Depression consumes energy

• The madness of depression is, generally speaking, the antithesis of violence. It is a storm indeed, but a storm of murk. Soon evident are the slowed-down responses, near paralysis, psychic energy throttled back close to zero. Ultimately, the body is affected and feels sapped, drained. William Styron
• Anger is remembered pain, fear is anticipated pain, guilt is self directed pain, depression is depletion of energy. Cure-return to love and joy Deepak Chopra
• Pain in the present is experienced as hurt. Pain in the past is remembered as anger. Pain in the future is perceived as anxiety. Unexpressed anger, redirected against yourself and held within, is called guilt. The depletion of energy that occurs when anger is redirected inward creates depression. Deepak Chopra

.

Focusing on sin wastes energy

• Many Christians expend so much energy and worry trying not to sin. The goal is not to try to sin less. In all your efforts to keep from sinning, what are you focusing on? Sin. God wants you to focus on him. To be with him. “Abide in me.” Just relax and learn to enjoy his presence. Every day is a collection of moments, 86,400 seconds in a day. How many of them can you live with God? Start where you are and grow from there. God wants to be with you every moment. John Ortberg

.

Interacting with non-physical beings wastes energy

• A great deal of energy is lost in the study by people who interact with non-physical beings. They get into your mind and your body by approaching you in the dream plane, promising you powers, playing on your desires. They sap your life force. Frederick Lenz

.

My works are the irrigation veins of this universal fluid. Through them ascend the ancestral sap, the original beliefs, the primordial accumulations, the unconscious thoughts that animate the world. Ana Mendieta
• The flower draws its life energy from the soil and from the sun. We are very similar. We continuously receive energy from the earth through our feet and from the air. Energy is everywhere, like love. We just have to open ourselves up to receive it. Ratu Bagus

• We must pay close attention to the signals our body sends – the aches and pains, digestions and indigestions, increased energies and exhaustions.

• The Universe energy doesn’t lie. Kendrick Lamar
• People should follow their own energy. William Schutz

But we can’t do this until we’ve cleaned out the lower stuff that is hindering us. Robert Moss

• Thought is energy. Seth-Jane Roberts
• …the basic stuff of the universe, at its core, is looking like a kind of pure energy that is malleable to human intention and expectation in a way that defies our old mechanistic model of the universe–as though our expectation itself causes our energy to flow out into the world and affect other energy systems.
