Tweetable Quotes:

"I call it God; some people call it the great divine mystery. There is something that is connected in all of life between all of us and when we heal. And sometimes these painful experiences that we have in our lives. Are the activators, the catalyst to bring us to our knees, to break our hearts open so that we can feel connected to the divine nature of life. Calling God, call it the great mystery. And it's in the wind. It's in the stars. It's in you. It's in me"

– Stephanie Urbina Jones

"We get freedom. We get free quicker. We get relief quicker. So it's not like it takes a year to get the relief, but to sustain it, to maintain it, to go deeper." – Jeremy Pajer
