Louise Hay Quotations

If we are willing to do the mental work, almost anything can be healed.

If I want to believe that life is lonely and that nobody loves me, then that is what I will find in my world.

Learn from the past and let it go. Live in today.

Each one of us decides to incarnate upon this planet at a particular point in time and space. We have chosen to come here to learn a particular lesson that will advance us upon our spiritual, evolutionary pathway.

I believe we create our own lives. And we create it by our thinking, feeling patterns in our belief system.

It is essential that we stop worrying about money and stop resenting our bills.

Love is the great miracle cure. Loving ourselves works miracles in our lives.

If your mother did not know how to love herself, or your father did not know how to love himself, then it would be impossible for them to teach you to love yourself. They were doing the best they could with what they had been taught as children.

The gateways to wisdom and learning are always open, and more and more I am choosing to walk through them. Barriers, blocks, obstacles, and problems are personal teachers giving me the opportunity to move out of the past and into the Totality of Possibilities.

Forgiveness is for yourself because it frees you. It lets you out of that prison you put yourself in.

As my mind can conceive of more good, the barriers and blocks dissolve. My life becomes full of little miracles popping up out of the blue.

I wish the children could be taught early on that our thinking creates our experience.

We learn our belief systems as very little children, and then we move through life creating experiences to match our beliefs. Look back in your own life and notice how often you have gone through the same experience.

Remember, in the vast infinity of life, all is perfect, whole, and complete... and so are you.

All the events you have experienced in your lifetime up to this moment have been created by your thoughts and beliefs you have held in the past. They were created by the thoughts and words you used yesterday, last week, last month, last year, 10, 20, 30, 40, or more years ago, depending on how old you are

We choose our sex, our color, our country, and then we look around for the particular set of parents who will mirror the pattern we are bringing in to work on in this lifetime.

If you want to understand your parents more, get them to talk about their own childhood; and if you listen with compassion, you will learn where their fears and rigid patterns come from. Those people who "did all that stuff to you" were just as frightened and scared as you are.

Know that you are always safe. And also know that it's possible to move from the old to the new, easily and peacefully.

We are each responsible for all of our experiences.

Men don't cry!' 'Women can't handle money!' What limiting ideas to live with.

It seems to me that everyone on this planet whom I know or have worked with is suffering from self-hatred and guilt to one degree or another. The more self-hatred and guilt we have, the less our lives work. The less self-hatred and guilt we have, the better our lives work, on all levels.

Gratitude BRINGS MORE to be grateful about, so today I make the point of expressing gratitude for everything in my LIFE!

Life is really very simple. What we give out, we get back

In my life there is an infinate supply of love, it is in exhastable, i can never use it all in this lifetime so i don't have to be sparing with it!

The more unhappy you are, the more miserable you are, the more you're going to suffer.

I'm no longer curious about things that will upset me.

Magnetizing things to ourselves is a natural process, but what are we magnetizing towards ourselves, is what we're giving out.

If we give out thoughts of grouchiness and complaining, etc., we'll find more to complain about. If we send out love and affirm 'life loves me', then we are drawing experiences to ourselves that prove it's true.

Taking a step without knowing the end result is the only way we develop faith and not only this, it's a practice that connects us with a power greater than ourselves.

We have to believe in ourselves more. It's all the same thing: We need to release the guilt. We need to forgive. We need to drop all the bullshit we were taught.

The more people know, the more people share. The more people improve the quality of their lives, the more they'll talk to other people about it, and then they'll help each other.

I think leaving [death] can be as joyous as - probably more joyous than - being born, because being born is very physically uncomfortable for the baby.

When we think good thoughts and choose the actions that make us feel good, Life provides us with all the evidence we need that we are loved and cared for.

I have learned over the years that the nicest thing I can do is to just say to myself, "Good Morning Darling, I love you; we're going to have a really great day today."

Love is acceptance - accepting people as they are. Just acceptance and caring.

That's the way life works: gratitude and appreciation just bring more goodness. Remember: Everything we give out comes back. Gratitude has all sorts of little, surprising rewards.

If you eat one less candy bar or donut a day, you're doing your body some good.

We get too caught up in the moneymaking part of life. My own biggest concerns are to stay healthy and happy. I think the business will take care of itself and, when I put that thought out into the world, it happens. My company is absolutely growing and growing and growing.

We do seminars, sometimes, for 7,000 people. These are people, predominantly women, who are seeking, who want to know more, who want to improve the quality of their lives, who want to find themselves.

We have to come back to basics: learning how to take care of ourselves. Not only learning to love our bodies - and that's a good beginning - but to take care of our bodies and ourselves by learning how to eat and how to think. I think living is really about thoughts and food, and we've got to get back to basics.

I think we're all born with this huge canvas in front of us and the paintbrushes and the paint, and we choose what to put on this canvas...

Dreams and goals keep us young and interested in life.

Just because the years are passing doesn't mean that the quality of our lives must automatically go downhill.

I choose to see my life moving in different directions, all of them equally good. Some things are even better now than the way they were in my youth.

If we want to be respected and honored when we're older, then we must lay the groundwork by respecting and honoring the elders we meet in our lives today. How we treat them today is the way we'll be treated later.

Negative thinking is prevalent, in particular, among so many women in their later years, and, as a result, they live out their lives in discontent.

I want you to know that your future is always bright, no matter what your age.

Don't ever think it's too late for you or that you're too old to dream and have goals.

No matter what our age or what kind of problems we have, we can begin to make positive changes today.

We have the time, we have the knowledge, and we have the wisdom to move out into the world with love and power.

I am young and beautiful... at every age.

Live today to the fullest, and forget about the past. Today you can create a new way of living. You can change all the rules.

Step forward, use your voice, get out in the world, and live!

See your later years as becoming your treasure years. Sit quietly and think of all the times you were joyful, and let your body feel this joy.

I truly believe that many of the fears we have are unnecessary. It is something we've been taught. It has been programmed into us. It's just a habitual thinking pattern, and it can be changed.

My younger years were filled with fear; my todays are filled with confidence.

My home is a happy place to be. I bless everyone who enters, myself included. Pleasant experiences fill every room.

We are the ones who suffer when we hold on to past grievances.

I use my power wisely. I am strong ,and I am safe. All is well.

I close my eyes, think positive thoughts, and breathe goodness in and out

I open my arms wide and declare with love that I deserve and accept all good!

I really had no religious upbringing, which is unusual. But I think it saved me, because when I found the theory that I wanted to follow, I did not have anything to unlearn.

Well, I believe you created those experiences over and over because they mirrored something you believed about yourself. It doesn't really matter how long we have had a problem, or how big it is, or how life-threatening it is. The Point of Power Is Always in the Present Moment.

The person who is hardest to forgive is the one who can teach you the greatest lessons.

I live in a peaceful world because I choose to think loving and peaceful thoughts.

I meditate on a regular basis and reap benefits from this practice

Do you want to be right, or do you want to be happy? Forgive yourself and stop punishing yourself.

The Universe loves a grateful person. The more you thank Life, the more Life will give you to be thankful for.

The bottom line for everyone is I'm not good enough. It's only a thought, and a thought can be changed.

I love and approve of myself. I love and approve of my body. I feed it nourishing foods and beverages. I exercise it in ways that are fun.

Every thought you think and every word you speak is affirming something.

The Universe loves grateful people. The more grateful you are, the more you get to be grateful about. It's that simple. Life is really that simple. We make it enormously complicated, but it doesn't have to be.

Most of my problems come from rejecting parts of myself.

Resistance is the first step to change.

Every obstacle is a stepping stone. My good cannot be stopped.

To me, true prosperity begins with feeling good about yourself. It is also the freedom to do what you want to do, when you want to do it. It is never an amount of money; it is a state of mind. Prosperity or lack of it is an outer expression of the ideas in your head.

If I want to live in a peaceful world, then it is up to me to make sure that I am a peaceful person. No matter how others behave, I keep peace in my heart. I declare peace in the midst of chaos or madness. I surround all difficult situations with peace and love.

Financial security is a constant in my life. I allow my income to constantly expand, no matter what the newspapers and economists say. I move beyond my present income, and I go beyond the economic forecasts. I do not listen to people out there telling me how far I can go or what I can do.

Peace beings with me. The more peaceful I am inside, the more peace I have to share with others.

Procrastination is another form of resistance

The one person I am with forever is me. My relationship with myself is eternal, so I choose to be my own best friend. I choose to love and accept myself, and talk to myself as I would a beloved person in my life. I saturate all the cells in my body with love, and they become vibrantly healthy. I relate with love to all of my life.

There's no such thing as good weather, or bad weather. There's just weather and your attitude towards it.

Love is the most important healing power there is.

Learn to think in positive affirmations. Affirmations are any statements you make. Too often we think in negative affirmations. Negative affirmations only create more of what you say you don't want. Saying, “I hate my job,” will get you nowhere. Declaring, “I now accept a wonderful new job,” will open the channels in your consciousness to create that.

I love who I am and all that I do.

People have one of two extreme reactions to my book. They either throw it across the room, or they rush out and buy 10 copies. The message I'm giving out, that what we think about becomes true for us, and negative thoughts mean good things don't happen, isn't always easy for some people to take.

It is safe to be me. I love life. I am always safe and secure. I move forward in life with joy and ease. All is well in my world.

Your thoughts are like the seeds you plant in your garden. Your beliefs are like the soil in which you plant these seeds.

Maintain your physical, emotional, and spiritual harmony with the universe by meditating every day. Inhale the precious breath of life. It is your connection to your Higher power.

If we choose to believe that we're responsible for our experiences, the good and the so-called bad, then we have the opportunity to outgrow the effects of the past. We can change. We can be free.

The biggest parts of healing and making myself whole is to accept all of the many parts of myself.

My body takes me everywhere easily and effortlessly.

I have a wonderful relationship with my friends, family members, and co-workers. I am appreciated

I deserve to live a good life, and I begin now.

When we have throat problems, it usually means we do not feel we have the right to do these things. We feel inadequate to stand up for ourselves.

Today I don't have to fit into anyone else's emotional atmosphere.

It's what we all wanted when we were children- to be loved and accepted exactly as we were then, not when we got taller or thinner or prettier...and we still want it... but we aren't going to get it from other people until we can get it from ourselves.

I let go of all negativity that rests in my body and mind

Stop giving your precious energy to things that make you feel bad.

You are not here to please other people or to live your lives their way. You can only live it your own way and walk your own pathway. You have come [here] to fulfill yourself and express love on the deepest level. You are here to learn and grow... When you leave the planet... the only thing you take is your capacity to love!
