Live Your Values, Accept Yourself and Let Go

Your Better Mental Wellbeing

29-12-2023 • 12 mins

How do you want to behave as a human being? How do you want to treat yourself and others, and the world around you? When you live according to your values you can have a rich and meaningful life.

Join Neera and Soen for Episode 10: Live Your Values, Accept Yourself and Let Go.

We discuss how we can find fulfilment in different ways, including valuing honesty and contributing to society. We acknowledge our personal imperfections, and the importance of setting boundaries and valuing personal time, as well as letting go of things that aren’t helpful to us. And we consider the benefits of being ourselves.

Your Better Mental Wellbeing is a weekly podcast helping you to manage stress and build resilience with easy evidence-based tools.
