How to End Self-Guilt in an Instant (Yin & Yang, Being Aware, and Self-Love) - #059

34 minutes

What does it mean to "paint legs on a snake" and why is it a waste of energy?

How are self-love and self-hate connected? Is there a third alternative?

Does our advice-based culture reward feeling discontent with one's self?

What is the integrated self and why is it so important in modern culture?

All this gets answered and more in this episode of Purple Elephant Radio about how to improve yourself without willpower or self-guilt (by shifting to "the integrated view of self").
