Learning to listen to our bodies, emotions and thoughts gives us the ability to recognize and deal with irrational states of mind, seeing them for what they really are, and learning to bless them and embrace them before letting them go. Mastery of our emotional and intellectual behaviors must begin with forgiving ourselves and others.

Knowing how to heal old wounds in positive ways and moving into the Light is an important lesson in the mastery of our behaviors.
