Publisher's Synopsis
Many people share the idea that we should somehow be able to establish rich and enduring relationships with others even if we've never learned to relate to ourselves in the same way. But according to Dr. John Welwood, the way we relate to others is often just an expression of how we relate to ourselves. On Embodying Self-Love, Dr. Welwood draws on his four decades as a clinical psychologist and student of Buddhism and Eastern contemplative traditions to present an experiential program for realizing our inseparable connection to the love that we are in our essence. Features guided practices for giving and receiving love fully, sensing the love of the universe within and without, and much more.
