“Your hair may be brushed, but your mind's untidy,
You've had about seven hours' sleep since Friday,
No wonder you feel that lost sensation;
You're sunk from a riot of relaxation.”

“The healthy form of attraction is a warmth. The way you experience it in your body is instead of it being a tension and an inhale, it's like an exhale. If the positive attraction that you feel is that relaxation and relief in your body, that's the healthy sensation. The person you're supposed to be with in partnership feels more like home, not excitement.”

Teal Swan (1984) American spiritual teacher
