The most important relationship we have is with ourselves. You’re the only person you’ll be around every minute of every day for the rest of your life. And, unfortunately, that relationship is often our most difficult one. Today we’re exploring how we can become better friends to ourselves, and learn to like ourselves more.

How can we create relationships that last? On this episode of Being Well, Dr. Rick Hanson and I explore how we can build relationships that are loving, healthy, enjoyable, and reliable.

In one of our favorite conversations, Dr. Jud Brewer joins Dr. Rick and me to explore the habit of anxiety, mindfulness practices to heal addiction, and what we can learn from the brains of the world’s most advanced meditators.
