How to Love Yourself (and Sometimes Other People)

Spiritual Advice for Modern Relationships

De: Lodro Rinzler, Meggan Watterson

Narrado por: Lodro Rinzler, Meggan Watterson

How to Love Yourself (and Sometimes Other People) is a smart, hip guide for spiritual seekers who want to experience more love and stability in all forms of relationships. Told from the unique vantage points of authors Meggan Watterson and Lodro Rinzler, this book explores staying anchored in the foundation of self-love as you navigate the natural (and often stormy) cycle of a relationship. Their dual perspectives as teachers and scholars of Christian mysticism and Buddhism make for a rich and fascinating dialogue that covers everything from sex, self-worth, falling in (and out of) love, deep friendships to breakups - and how to maintain an open heart through it all.

At its core, this book is about learning to love yourself no matter what. Meggan and Lodro suggest that you are worthy of love, both self-love and the love of others. They aren’t experts on how to get that man or lady to fall in love with you, nor are they experts on how to have "the perfect relationship". They are spiritual teachers who know that relationships have a life of their own and can speak to the human element of what it means to experience them fully. In the process, they share deeply personal, revealing, honest anecdotes, and spiritual practices to assist you with the inevitable ebbs and flow of love in all its manifestations.

Sacred book

This was an amazing book, that I savored every section. Was written very vulnerably and honestly and seemed to touch on every area of the heart and soul that desires love.

A great reason to love

A great reason to love yourself is so you can be present with your lover! This is what this book teachs and why it's needed lesson we all need to learn. Once you learn it you must silly it. Amazing things will happen in your relationships once your love yourself!

Phenomenal and Resonant

I came to this book immediately on the heals often two books by author Shannon Kaiser, THE SELF LOVE EXPERIMENT and JOY SEEKER. And reading this was like a very natural continuation of that journey which resonated very deeply for me. I loved how they approached the topic from multiple angles, including from a Christian and a Buddhist tradition which reveals just how foundational and universal the concept of self love is regardless if you are single or in a relationship. I’ll be revisiting this book again, and have already quoted from it a lot when talking about my self love journey. I recommend this book a lot.

Didn't want it to end!

I literally replayed the book immediately after it was over just to really soak everything in. I'm currently in the process of deciding whether or not to stay in a marriage I know isn't healthy for me and this gave me such a healthy outlook on it. Must read! Definitely will be listening to this book over and over again.

heartbreaking-thank you for sharing your story

this book is so well written. she's an amazing story teller. and so honest! The title is shocking but I don't blame her for that title. It fits the story.

Love yourself! 💚

beautiful, necessary, inspiring book about the soul, the importance of how to love yourself and how one might take on that journey. such a lovely book. thank you.

Very Helpful

I found the book very helpful and insightful. It did feel like it jumped around a bit between the two authors stories, but overall I didn't mind. I'm going to be listening to it again.

Great Self Care Book for Millenials

This book intersects practicality and spirituality in a way that makes the listener self reflect without feeling judged. The writers tell parallel stories of their own but weave in lessons from two different trains of spiritual thought to invoke important questions. How do I love myself? Where do I find joy? How does love of others show up in my life? What can I do to improve the presence of love in myself and how can I bring that into my relationships.

As someone who felt she was losing herself in the routine of “roles” in my life, I listened to this book while going through treatment for Depression while exercising. It’s a vulnerable book that has calming, reflective, and sometimes funny, moments that can ease your mind into rethinking what “love” is.

Only criticism is that the audio book is read in a way that is confusing to follow at times. One author will pick up a he thread in the middle of a chapter etc. I’m sure this translates on paper but it is confusing from an auditory perspective.

This Book is for Everyone.

Everyone should Listen to this book, It has a great story line. It is also a good lesson, on how to get to become friends, with your self, and love your self, also others. Learning how to look at your self, in a loving way is a great and powerful feeling.

Very good

This book was good discussion of how to love yourself before, during,and after relationships with other people. I learned a lot and will listen again.
