How to Love Yourself (and Sometimes Other People)

Spiritual Advice for Modern Relationships

By: Lodro Rinzler

Narrated by: Lodro Rinzler

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 audio 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 audio 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.

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.

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!

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.
