Los 7 pilares del amor propio

Synopsis of Los 7 pilares del amor propio

Walter Riso, one of the most influential psychologists in Spain and Latin America, shows us in his new book how self-love can be the key to our personal transformation. Self-love involves cultivating a relationship with oneself that is based on care, respect, compassion, and unconditional acceptance. It is prioritizing one's own well-being and learning to treat ourselves as we would with someone we truly love. An important consideration, as Walter Riso points out, is that self-love goes beyond self-esteem and completes it, because it does not make personal valuation depend on achievements and external recognition, but on the dignity and essence that defines us as human beings. Throughout this book, with a practical and profound approach, Walter Riso presents seven fundamental pillars to strengthen self-love, from self-knowledge and self-compassion to the establishment of limits, going through aligning self-love with our most heartfelt values or changing the narrative of personal history. With these strategies, Riso teaches us to live intensely, learning to treat ourselves in a healthy and affectionate way. In short, we are faced with a book that will forever change the most important relationship of all, the one we have with ourselves.
