Quotes from Margaret:

• "With frequent practice of consciousness, healing from your divorce or breakup will be a journey that you will welcome and accept."
• "There is no resistance to heal from your part once you understand how the unconscious mind works and how the unconscious mind participates in our slow healing from our breakups."
• "You are not your unconscious mind."
• "The mantra of the unconscious mind is 'I am (100%) my husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend'. So obviously when one takes away the husband/wife/boyfriend/girlfriend, you lose your identity. But it is the unconscious mind that loses the identity."
• "Let us say you are fixing your ex's stuff, like his shirt and shoes. When you are identifying his things to a memory aka the past that is the reason why you start to cry. But the fact is, at that present moment, you were just tidying up his clothes and shoes. So do you see that there is a disconnect of the reality with what you are thinking? You are just fixing one shirt, one pair of shoes but since your unconscious mind wanders to the painful past, you start to cry. This is Your unconscious mind working that slows down your healing."
• "I always think that the unconscious mind is like a master artist, it can create an amazing piece of art from nothing. And I don't mean that as a compliment. What I mean is that the amazing piece of art is big drama. The unconscious mind is like a master artist because it can create a big drama from nothing."
• "The trick here is being conscious or recognizing that your unconscious mind is identifying with those thoughts. That is when the shift happens."
• "Even if the body is physically present at a point in time - the unconscious mind chooses to wander to the painful or happy past and travels forth to the scary future, instead of being at present."
• "To clarify, the unconscious mind is not wrong, nor bad, nor evil - it is just unconscious."
