Philautia (Self-Love) Meditation
Manage episode 399534434 series 2916926
In this episode we are continuing with the theme of Greek philosophies of love and today we will look at Philautia which is self-love. Philautia is self-compassion and as Aristotle put it “All friendly feelings for others are an extension of a man’s feelings for himself.” or as RuPaul says "If you can't love yourself, how in the hell are you going to love somebody else?". Love that quote!
There are 8 (but probably more because I haven't yet found the word for love of chocolate or music) types of love that I define for you here, they are...
- Agape - we have already looked at this - it is a compassionate, kind love
- Eros - erotic, passionate love
- Philia - a platonic love that we have for our friends, full of loyalty and trust
- Storge - the love we have for family
- Ludus - a playful, giddy, young-love type of love
- Mania - obsessive, possessive, jealous love - not the healthiest type of love
- Pragma - enduring love of deep and harmonious affection and trust - a love that has been built over time with compromise and patience.
- Philautia - self-love
The work of self-love is ongoing - every day our ego will fight it, telling us that we are not worthy. But we are! You are.
Much love
