How to stop hating myself by ffk

"through self-observation I learned to love myself"

How I did it: for me the key was self-analyzing. I was meditating, thinking, reading some wise stuff and I got to know myself much better. exercise (especially aerobics) is good to keep your mind going well. meditation is good to analyze yourself. once you know yourself better, you'll have much more compassion towards yourself, you'll see your human failings as something normal, not a thing to be ashamed of.

I really, highly recommend Vipassana (mindfulness) meditation.

Lessons & tips: exercise (aerobics) and meditation (mindfulness meditation, vipassana, not some magic or ritualistic buddhist stuff)

Resources: Vipassana (mindfulness),

this is really good book. that's the thing I give people I love.
