Episode 28 - Love Yourself

In this episode, we explore a very difficult skill and that is loving yourself. Most of us pretend that we love ourselves, yet we miserably flunk this simple test. Go to the mirror, stare deeply into your eyes and say slowly and meaningfully, “I - love - you.” How does that feel? Did you look away? Did you feel like a phoney? Was doing this super uncomfortable? If you answered yes to the above... you aren't alone. I had a client who said that he'd rather put his hand through a meat grinder than do this exercise but, after awhile, he came to embrace and enjoy this process and now can say it with conviction! Mind you, it did take him awhile to develop this skill. It is most common to do things for others and profess love for them. The truth is that we cannot love others more than we love ourselves. This may sound harsh, but it is true. Loving yourself is the key to eliminating head trash. You will learn key telltale signs that show how you really feel about yourself. This is not about self-indulgence, but about truly caring for the divine person that you are.
