Episode 3434: Vironika Tugaleva challenges the typical approach to New Year’s resolutions, highlighting the dangers of self-improvement when rooted in self-hatred rather than self-acceptance. By cultivating trust in your natural ability to care for yourself, growth can become a joyful journey of self-discovery rather than a punishing cycle of forced change and self-sabotage. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.vironika.org/dangers-self-improvement-new-years-resolutions/ Quotes to ponder: “Self-improvement without self-love is like building a house upon quicksand. You can build and build, but it will always sink.” “If I trust that, in my natural state, I am already compelled to be healthy and good to myself, then I’ll accept myself as I am.” “To change your impulses, you must re-arrange your environment to better meet your emotional needs.” Episode references: The Love Mindset: https://www.amazon.com/Love-Mindset-Unconventional-Healing-Happiness/dp/0992046807 Learn more about your ad choices.
