Self Compassion First: A Dharma Talk with Dr. Cheryl
Manage episode 404616645 series 2930026
“Dr. Cheryl, how can I learn to give myself a break?”
“Why can’t I help but be nasty to my partner?”
“What can I do to live a more compassionate life?”
How kind are you to your romantic partner? How kind are you to yourself? In our high stress, high activity lives, we can lose sight of the thing that matters the most: compassion for ourselves, for others, for our partner, our family, our friends, and even for strangers.
Today’s episode of Sex, Love, and Elephants features a talk I gave in December at a three day self compassion meditation and Buddhism retreat.
Tune in and hear my teachings on being with things as they are, being kind to ourselves, and realizing that happiness is right here, right now.
In This Episode, You Will Learn:
- The popularity and fortune that our culture says will make us happy rarely does (09:48)
- Happiness is fragile when it's dependent on something outside ourselves (11:38)
- Your circumstances don't determine your happiness (25:46)
- Work on being happy and free from suffering first, then work on the circumstances second (27:22)
- Anger is often a secondary emotion and underneath it is either pain or fear (46:20)
