“We are conditioned from birth to think and feel according to the psychological distortion of those before us, to take another’s word as our own without question, to follow the emotions of the masses. This shapes a narrow scope of the universe, squeezing life of passion and enthusiasm. The only way out of such an […]
“What is beautiful, healing, and truthful now will not be in the clutches of a desire to keep them alive. They are dynamic, living things, subject to the individuals they serve and cannot be controlled or contained.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
“Truth cannot be labeled, defined, or packaged into a nice little ideology or religion. When you add structure to truth it is no longer truth. It is a contaminated thing that was once truth.

“There is a life under every mad, crazy schedule, underneath all your incessant thought, all your planning and worry. Let’s call this life ‘she’. She will take you where you need to go, tell you what you need to hear, give you what your soul truly wants. She lives and breathes in her own way, […]
“Honor what you feel in your bones. Be true to it. Follow it always. It is more important than the truth, belief, and opinion of a leader, mentor, or loved one. If you ignore it, if you go with the crowd when your gut is telling you otherwise, you give up soul-sustaining integrity for the […]

“You’ve done it! You’ve made the hard decision. You’ve pulled up your bootstraps, mustered huge courage, and now you’re ready to move forward and face the world with this new life change under your belt. Some advice: don’t let this new-found life-style become a mask – another identity for you to hide behind. Keep moving. Let go of what you think you know again and again. Make room for a quicker, broader evolution of you. Wake up new and innocent each day. What was true yesterday, may not be today and will not be (fully) tomorrow; but the truth you do need will follow you everywhere.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com

Find the vast depth of silence within you and you will discover the truth that is perfect for you now.” -Amy Larson, amyjalapeno.com
