Self-Compassion + Self-Acceptance + Self-Love = Happiness!

Why is it so much easier to love others than our selves? Is learning to love our selves more an acquired skill?

Self-compassion, self-acceptance, and self-love are positively associated with satisfaction, happiness, optimism, curiosity, learning goals, social connectedness and emotional resilience.

My special guest this month helps individuals and couples to connect more deeply and honestly with their ideal selves, therapeutically aligning them with a more authentic life.

We’re going to be talking to Jennifer Downs about specific techniques that can help us to live more genuinely, comfortable in our skin. Thinking positively is great, neutralizing negative thoughts is too, but there is so much more we can do.

In addition to her work with individuals, Jennifer also counsels couples and teaches classes on a variety of subjects. She has promised to share some insights from these classes, such as what couples who stay together do differently than those who don’t.

Please join me for another great edition of Café Sol Radio. As always, if you can’t listen LIVE, download the broadcast later or tune-in on your favorite device.
