The Power of Acceptance

from The Integrative Palliative Podcast · host Delia Chiaramonte, MD

Acceptance is powerful. Many people mistakenly think that acceptance is giving up. They see it as the opposite of fighting. I see it differently. Instead of being the opposite of fighting, I see acceptance as the opposite of pretending. When you stop pretending you open opportunities for deep wellbeing and connection.In this episode I read a story from my book Coping Courageously: A Heart-Centered Guide for Navigating a Loved One's Illness Without Losing Yourself.
