Summary

Dr. Kristine Klussman shares two short posts on living your values and the path to self-connection. Episode 1908: Do You Know and Live Your Values AND Self-Connection as the Path to Well-Being by Dr. Kristine Klussman Kristine Klussman specialized in Health Psychology (Behavioral Medicine) at Harvard Medical School, then founded and ran the Health Psychology program and post-doctoral training programs at California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco. She found her work with cancer and cardiac patients inspiring, uplifiting, and humbling. She found so many of those going through life-threatening illness were - sometimes for the first time in their lives - absolutely clear what truly mattered to them: authenticity and connection. In 2016, she founded a non-profit to focus full-time on trying to understand, explain and teach what she now believes is the single most meaningful and rewarding aspect of our existence.

0:00.0	This is Optimal Living Daily Episode 1908. Do you know and live your values?
0:05.6	And self-connection as the path to well-being, both by Dr. Christine Klussman of ChristineKlussman.com.
0:12.4	And we're very own personal narrator, Justin Malik, reading to you from some amazing blogs and books.
0:17.4	Help you optimize your life, covering self-help, personal development, happiness, productivity, and more.
0:24.4	Now two polls for you today, so let's get right to them as we optimize your life.
0:32.9	Do you know and live your values by Dr. Christine Klussman of ChristineKlussman.com?
0:40.1	As a society, we constantly talk about our values, as if we as individuals or we as a country,
0:46.7	actually know what those values are. If you had to take a pop quiz right now that asked you to name
0:51.7	your top three values in life, would you have your answers ready? In my experience, most people
0:57.3	confronted with the question, feel quite unsure of their response that they are forgetting something

1:33.5	out of step with who we are today. Our stated values probably include things we've inherited from
1:38.8	our parents, spouse, teachers, and mentors, as well as things that we think we should stand for,
1:44.5	but that don't necessarily reflect our real priorities. Or they may just be relics from another
1:50.1	time when that was the most important thing to you in life and you now have different priorities.
1:56.2	Just taking the time to collect, examine, and reflect on your own true values as you feel them
