Why Loving Yourself Is So Difficult | Dr. Shyam Bhat | State of Mind Podcast

In this episode of the State of Mind Podcast, Dr. Shyam Bhat explores what self-love truly means, why it is so difficult for human beings, and how it differs from ego, entitlement, or self-comparison. Moving beyond popular slogans and affirmations, this episode looks at self-love as a lived experience rather than an idea. Dr. Bhat explains how human beings are unique in having complex ideas of the self, formed very early in life through childhood, parenting, and social conditioning. These ideas create an internal conflict between who we are and who we believe we should be—leading to self-criticism, shame, guilt, and a constant struggle for acceptance. In this episode, you’ll explore: Why humans must learn self-love unlike other species How early childhood experiences shape self-acceptance The tension between individual desires and societal expectations Why self-love is not affirmations, comparison, or entitlement How true self-love involves forgetting the self rather than fixing it Why being fully alive and present is the foundation of self-love A practical starting point to reconnect with yourself through mindfulness This episode invites you to stop trying to “be better” and instead begin by being fully alive in the present moment—allowing self-love to arise naturally through acceptance, presence, and compassion.
