• Sanity would be able to regularly “eliminate,” to regularly exercise, meditate, and pray.
• Sanity would be to treat my body with compassion and treat it like I love it.

• My serenity, my balance, and my sanity are taken from me when I am irritable, bloated, or chained to the toilet.
• I feel tethered to my “self” when I am off kilter and I am not a channel of God’s love.
• Insanity is that I keep doing the same thing or am obsessed with doing it differently.
• Insanity is trying to find a quick fix.
• Sanity is knowing that I lack the power to do this myself.
