Self-acceptance is one of our most difficult challenges, no matter how much
meditation or therapy we’ve tried. In this FREE video event series, Tami
Simon speaks with contemporary luminaries in spirituality, psychology, and
creativity to learn how we can truly embrace who we are.
No matter how much spiritual practice, self-improvement, or therapy we’ve
undertaken, there is one area where many of us still find ourselves challenged
every day: self-acceptance. It seems all too easy to fall into the trap of
judging ourselves as inadequate, finding fault with our achievements or our
bodies, and believing our self-critical inner voices that insist we’ll never
measure up to who we ought to be. Is there a solution?
Sounds True created The Self-Acceptance Project to find out.
In this
FREE online video event series, Tami Simon speaks with several contemporary
luminaries in the fields of spirituality, psychology, and creativity. Together
they explore the questions around self-acceptance—and investigate how we can
overcome the difficulties of embracing who we are. Where do our self-critical
voices come from? Can we silence them, or is there a better way to deal with
them? Can we be motivated to change and excel while still accepting ourselves
as we are? Why is it often so much easier to feel compassion and forgiveness
towards others than towards ourselves?
