What we’re about
What does it mean to Love yourself?
All meetings are currently via Zoom and FREE.
Each meeting is an open discussion amongst participants - either sharing or listening...above all we share a space that is welcoming and accepting without judgement.
This group has existed for about 10yrs. The organizer recently moved to Austin.
The goal is for each and every participant to learn something about how to Love themselves...and, in so doing, feel happier and more joyful!
By Loving ourselves completely and unconditionally, we can discover and experience true happiness and joy. As we learn to Love ourselves, we begin to 'awaken' to the essence of our existence. We learn to shed the expectations society has placed on us (Ego), and we grow to understand our own and others' inherent worth and beauty.
The modality of this group is similar to group therapy. It incorporates principles of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Art Therapy, Meditation, and secular Spirituality. All people, all issues, all beliefs are welcome! Our regular attendees have a mix of secular and non-secular belief systems.
Learning TO Love ourselves is generally taught by discussing how we are NOT loving ourselves. Below are examples and clues which open the door to the ideas.
Why should you attend?
- Have you taken the ACEs test?
- Were you severely punished as a child?
- Did you witness scary things as a child?
- Does your partner know everything about you or do you have a lot of secrets?
- Do your children overwhelm you?
- Are you in an unhappy marriage?
- Are you looking at porn every night?
- Is work stressing you out regularly?
- Are you drinking every day?
- Do you do things you know you should not?
- Are you overwhelmed with grief?
- Are you sad and/or depressed and crying frequently?
- Are you being abused or are you abusing someone?
- Are you trapped in the sex industry?
- Are you making money as a stripper, sex worker, or online via some sexual method?
- Are you afraid?
If you answered yes to ANY of the above, you might learn something in the meetings.
