Summary

What does Amour de Soi mean?

It is a french term for love of self. A concept developed by philosopher, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, to describe the instinctive disposition of self-preservation which human beings have in the state of nature. Acts out of amour de soi tend to be for individual well-being. They are naturally good and not malicious because amour de soi as self-love does not involve pursing one's self-interest at the expense of others. It is related to an awareness of one's future and can restrain present impulse. The sentiment does not compare oneself with others, but is concerned solely with oneself as an absolute and valuable existence.

For Rousseau, amour de soi contrasts with amour-propre , a self-love that presupposes a comparison between oneself and others and consequently generates all the vicious and competitive passions. Amour de soi-mâme is a natural feeling which leads every animal to look to its own preservation, and which, guided in man by reason and modified by compassion, creates humanity and virtue.

Transformational insomnia and phobia treatments

I've seen Alice regularly for the past two years and have had parts of my life transformed for the better. I had a crippling fear of flying prior to my first visit -- after two hypnotherapy sessions, I was flying on a weekly basis, on jets large and small, through wintery weather, you name it. I cannot express the positive impact this has had on my self-esteem and my livelihood.

Alice has also helped me address my insomnia without the use of prescription meds. She's a fantastic naturopathic doctor who really listens to her patients -- the treatment plan outlined for me was tailored to my needs, and within sixty days I was getting a steady 6-7 hours of sleep each night. Like flying, being able to sleep comfortably has helped me become a more active, vital person.

I can't recommend Alice highly enough!
