QUOTES

10:37 Queen: "Stay in the spirit of gratitude. Because it will keep your heart light. Otherwise, you say, did you get this immediately when you heard it? How many people had to show you, how many workshops did you have to take before you got a deeper level? So be grateful that you have a family, some don't have families."

12:04 Queen: "Be patient with your growth, be patient with other people's growth. I would know because when I started this, I wanted everybody to get it and I would Badger them into it. And I'd give them statistics and what are they doing with themselves? And I said I would have a heart attack trying to help people to heal."

17:51 Queen: "I found that all disease is two things: malnourishment and toxicity. So if you're depressed, you're malnourished. That's all. And so when you nourish yourself, then depression will leave. It's just the body is breaking down because you're not building it up."

22:24 Queen: "You're not limited to space. You are connected as you connect to your inner self, you connect to your outer self. This may be the best time for a retreat. People will say, 'I'm depressed because I just had a divorce. I said well don't say that word. Say, 'I'm going through a transformation now that I'm going through a divorce.'"

31:58 Queen: "It's a spiritual practice to listen, to get in tune. First, you got to get in tune. Like a whole instrument. That attunement is what impeccable listening will do.”

35:10 Queen: “You could ask at that moment, I am feeling in a state of despair. I am feeling empty. Because you have to be your own truth teller. I'm feeling lonely, whatever that is. And now ask, how do I overcome my loneliness? What do I need to do, to not feel afraid?”
