Don’t think that you are free to be whatever you wish, just like that. In order to become what you truly wish to be, you must follow universal principles, principles of Truth.

Health means wholeness. You can look at health as a large meadow, a large field. When water flows and reaches every part of that field, it is healthy.

Breema offers the possibility of transforming yourself into an instrument that can receive Conscious energy.

We are like someone who’s lost in the desert. But instead of wishing for a little rain or a small pond, we wish the whole ocean was there.

One thing we need to learn in life is to support whatever is supporting us. If we go down this road, our eyes and mind slowly open up, and we see that we’re supported by everything that exists.
