If we allow it, from the broken pieces something beautiful emerges. The Universe is prompting us to grow, to evolve, to move into a different direction. It is through this brokenness that a new wholeness emerges and our light shines through… radiant, pure, and free.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Not everything that someone says about us is true, but their own projection.
Not everything we say to ourselves is true, but our own distortions.
Be willing to question negative statements, cognitions, or thoughts.
Challenge them.
Look for how they are simply faulty thinking.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Words can heal. Words can hurt. Name-calling, even when “in jest,” creates a distancing wedge between two people and inflict invisible wounds that are hard to heal. Never use your words to hurt. Only then can you demand the same.

Someday, millions of years from now, everything our eyes rest upon will cease to exist. So what then is permanent? What is left behind?
The only thing that is permanent is the love we give and receive from one another - that we get to keep... that is forever.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

We can't call something our own until we first give it away.
Thus, to have friendship, give friendship.
To have peace, give peace.
To have happiness, give happiness.
And to have love, give love. Give that which is good & loving and it will come back to you multiplied.

SET YOURSELF UP TO WIN
They are called "3ft. tosses": small, doable actions that move us little by little in the direction of our dreams. They are the difference between setting ourselves up to win vs setting ourselves up to fail. Success breeds success!

What if everyday we woke up viewing our lives as a clean canvas on which to fearlessly, and with bold strokes, express the masterpiece which is our Soul?
"If you hear a voice within saying: 'you can't paint', then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced."
- Van Gogh

It is pointless to compare yourself to others.
Forget that.
Be you.
Do you.
You are a unique and wonderful creation.
Who you are is magnificent.

Do you.
Be you.
Be different, weird, shy, effusive, loud, or whatever it is you happen to be.
Who you are is beautiful.
Those who are meant to be in your life will love you and celebrate you for being 100% yourself.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Personal growth happens in those moments in which we catch ourselves. Every time that we catch ourselves in a negative state and we course correct, choosing instead to shift to a different, more empowered attitude, we are building new neural pathways in our brain.

"Emotional pain is the effort it takes to hang on to an old idea."
- Michael Beckwith
Think about that.
What are you hanging onto?
Let go of that which is no longer in service of your peace of mind and emotional well-being.
Accept what is and let go of what was.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

If, in spite of our preparation, hard work, or effort, a situation does not manifest in our favor, we must trust that something even better is waiting for us just around the corner, beyond our line of sight. Eventually, that proverbial window will open. Keep moving forward.

After a Yoga class you’ll often hear the teacher say “namaste,” which means “the divine in me honors the divine in you.” A spiritual practice, regardless of religion, aims at understanding this with our minds and to feel the truth of this in our hearts.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

It’s a romantic notion to say that “love conquers all.” Sadly, love alone is not enough. There has to be a skill-set of empathy, communication, commitment, forgiveness, and respect to allow love to thrive.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

There has never been anyone in the entire Universe exactly like you. You are magnificent. You are asked, however, to remove the barriers that block you from the presence of the intense and pure love that is in your heart, and to express it loudly for all the world to see.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Feeling angry does not ever justify being cruel. It is how you choose to express your anger, whether constructively or destructively, which determines the quality of your character and your relationships.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Not all of our thoughts are true.
Watch your thoughts and be willing to challenge them, asking “Is this thought true? Really?”
Then choose the thoughts that affirm, support, and empower your dreams, your goals, and your self-worth.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

We expect that transformation requires a difficult journey; that the answers we seek are in the hands of something or someone outside ourselves. But, if we are lucky, we may discover that all we have to do is to be still, go within, and be grateful for the memory of home.

[Frankie Perez, Soul-Centered Psychotherapy @FPMindGym]

Maslow identified love as a basic human need.

He also recognized that love only happens after a solid foundation of safety has been established.

Safety then, is the foundation of love.
