We follow up last week’s episode with Part 2 of Original Self by Thomas Moore. Reflect on this: What would it feel like to FULLY accept yourself - full-on forgiveness, full-on compassion, full-on empathy… toward yourself? Moore brings this idea to the forefront. Today, we touch on the idea of our full being (light and dark), a coaching perspective on depression, and much more… and much Moore."Original Self" by Thomas Moore: https://www.amazon.com/Original-Self-Living-Paradox-Originality/dp/0060953721CONNECT WITH THRIVALIST:Website: http://thrivalistcollective.com/Get The Thrivalist Handbook: http://thethrivalisthandbook.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
