33 Holistic Health Quotes to Inspire Your Healing Journey

Looking for some holistic health quotes to motivate and inspire you on your healing journey?  Stop right here to get your fix!

Ever since I was a little girl I’ve loved collecting quotes.  Anytime I’d find a word, phrase, poem, or passage that connected with me, I kept it.  When I found quotes I loved I’d copy them into a journal or notebook, rip out the page from the magazine, buy the book, memorize it – anything to save the special energy the quote gave me anytime I read it.  

I filled journals, boxes, and drawers with all the quotes I collected over the years.  The quotes were about life, love, and even as a kid-they were often holistic health quotes!  They didn’t just sit and gather dust once I collected them either.  I spent time regularly in reflection re-reading them and allowing myself to receive any new downloads they brought through for me.  

I still collect quotes, especially holistic health quotes, to this day.  Being an intuitive and empath allows me the special gift of being able to connect to things with my energy.  When I read a holistic health quote that resonates with me, I know that a deeper message and lesson is coming through it.   As I revisit or rediscover the quotes over time each experience brings me a new reflection, a new message, a new lesson to learn.

Words are powerful and each carries its own unique energetic frequency and vibration.  Ever since I was young, I’ve been able to feel the energy of everything around me including words.  

I was taught by one of my mentors that each word, along with its energy, can never be taken back once its written or spoken.  It puts a permanent energetic imprint out in the Universe, and a powerful one.  

Believe it or not, the energy our words carry can travel anywhere and impact anything or anyone.  It’s really basic science.  The first law of thermodynamics, or the Law of Conservation of Energy, teaches us that energy can’t be created or destroyed.  Once words are created, they can’t be taken back- that energy can’t be destroyed.   

This is one of the reasons it truly is so important to choose your words wisely.  You never know the impact they can have, especially collectively.  Since the energy that words create can’t be destroyed, then imagine the potential consequences of millions of people speaking negatively over years and years.  The energy of those words accumulates.  It builds up into a massive negative energetic thought form and can impact groups, countries, or the entire world’s population in unimaginable ways.  

This has everything to do with our health and wellness, speaking of holistic health quotes!  But sincerely, please, consider this the next time you are about to react negatively.  Remember the words you choose will carry energy intentionally out into the Universe.  What kind of impact do you want to have on others?  Negative or Positive? 

For me, the quotes I found weren’t just words to me, they were ALIVE.  The energy I felt from them was so strong I knew that there was something much more to the world of health and healing than any human can see.  I knew that to be a great doctor, it meant believing and knowing that there are always going to be things and forces beyond our 3-dimensional understanding that have everything to do with our lasting health and wellness.  I still know and believe this today.

Today I’m sharing a little piece of my “holistic health quotes collection” from my archives. 

If you’re looking for some holistic health quotes of your own, these will make inspirational and insightful additions to your own library!  

As you read through these today, take your time.  Allow this to be a healing experience.  Rather than rushing, be present.  Take a deep breath in and fill your lungs all the way up – even more than you think you can – pause for a moment.  EXHALE and let go of all that stuff that isn’t serving you in this moment.  Truly experience these holistic health quotes.  What feelings come up for you as you read them?  What messages ‘pop’ in for you?  What lessons are hidden inside of them for you?
