A few weeks ago, we did an episode on how to be a great friend to others.\\xa0 In this episode, Eva shifts gears and shares why it is so important to be a best friend to yourself!\\xa0 This week\\u2019s episode was inspired by one of Deepak Chopra\\u2019s guided meditations.\\xa0 There, Deepak made the point that if you look at the qualities of a best friend -- someone who would lift you up when you are down, make encouraging statements, treat you well, etc -- those are the same qualities and behavior\\xa0 that you should apply to yourself too!\\xa0 Yet so many people are great friends to others, but don\\u2019t take good care of themselves.\\xa0 Whether that is negative self-talk or not eating healthy food, or not getting enough sleep -- we need to stop treating ourselves poorly and instead embrace Deepak\'s vision of looking at oneself as your own best friend. Eva shares some powerful examples in this episode of what it means to be your own best friend. \\xa0 And Eva explains how taking care of yourself will also help you be a better friend to others too. \\xa0 Thank you Deepak for all the wonderful work you do, and for inspiring Eva to create this episode.\\xa0 Show notes at DreamBigPodcast.com/215
