My new video course entitled “The practice of self-acceptance, or, stop punching yourself in the head psychologically” is out today. It is $75.

Ever since I wrote this massive post about accepting myself, I’ve been fielding a lot of questions along the lines of, “hey, I like the sound of this self-acceptance stuff, but I don’t know how to do that, how do I do it?” I’ve responded with a spray of book recommendations, tweets, and disconnected YouTube videos, which is fine enough. But there hasn’t been one resource I’ve been happy to point people towards, and people tend to like having one resource. This is my attempt to create a compact, helpful resource.
It contains guides to nine practices that have been helpful for me, as well as some material about the mindsets and attitudes that made self-acceptance stick. This, I think, is more important than any specific technique. In the end, everyone’s suffering is a unique little personal wasp’s nest—everyone needs to figure out what works for them, and this will likely be a blend of approaches, rather than any one mantra or whatever.
If you’re interested in developing more self-acceptance, I think the course could be helpful for you! I also think it could make a solid (if unconventional) holiday gift.
As with my previous course, it will probably get updated over time with bonus units. To facilitate this, I encourage anyone taking the course to pelt me with questions.
Making the course was fun, but also strenuous—I filmed the thing twice because I realized I didn’t get the tone right the first time, took out some units, added some others, and so on. So I’m taking a break from big projects for a couple of weeks. After that, it’s likely I’ll be writing a book in the new year.
Exciting! Do you have any scholarship or lower cost spots? Currently on a sabbatical and finances are tight, but would love to have access to the content if possible!
Hey do you know when you will reopen your course for sign-ups?
