Quotes by Thomas Latham

“But I came to learn that proper nutrition and self-care, acupuncture, and the elimination of sweets leading up to the cycle and afterward could eliminate my cramps, PMS, and leave me feeling restored.””

“Light a candle and sit in silence. Ask for guidance as you tune in to the silence. Start to speak to your ancestors silently or out loud. I honor my unique gifts, talents, and powers. I come from a strong and powerful people. I release the baggage and ancestral wounds that have been passed on to me. I will turn the pain and struggle of my past into purpose. I celebrate the freedom that I have because of sacrifices made before me. I promise to honor my lineage and live out my truth. I bow to the legacy that gave rise to me. Through my thoughts and actions, I pave the path for a legacy I will leave behind.””

“You may feel a magnetic connection to ancestral lineage other than your own. Light a candle weekly, as it will bring spiritual light into your home. Light your incense of choice. My grandmother says, “Incense is the medium that spirits breathe in.” Invite them in to breathe with you. What have you inherited from your ancestry that needs healing? What valuable magic has been passed down to you that needs to be activated?””

“There is an important aspect to spirituality that has less to do with mainstream religion or cultural traditions and teachings and more to do with stillness.””

“We create a smoky environment with incense because it’s the medium that spirits breathe in.””

“I was done firing up the neuropathways of pain and reliving the experience on a cellular level each and every time I spoke about it.””

“Our emotions are very peculiar and are often lodged away within our living tissues, becoming part of us. We store our psychic pain physically in our bodies. For each emotion, there is a space within our bodies that tethers it.””

“We are attached to the idea that our feelings and anxiety are a reflection of situations we are already in, but the truth is quite the opposite. Our fear is in fact attracting the very situations and people that justify our fear-based beliefs. Fear is a resistance to the ebb and flow of life, and our lives need to be fluid.””

“We are walking manifestations of our karma. Every experience and decision we have made up to this point has shaped who we are.””

“Turn your “what if” to “what is.””

“This is less about putting your dream car, your coveted vacation, or the ideal wedding gown on the board and more about placement of words, colors, and objects that create the mood and tone of your desired life. What do you want your life to feel like? What is the mood?””

“All that we are is the result of what we have thought.” ~ Buddha””

“that blackness is the light of the world. It’s in the darkness that we find immense power and grace. The dark, dank soil nourishes root systems and gives rise to plant life. In the darkness of the womb, new life is spun into being. The dark night sky allows us to dream at night. It is a whole and necessary part of the cosmic order; darkness is divine.””
