Empathy is so much more than feeling deeply -It holds a transformative power to heal ourselves, strengthen our relationships, and amplify our purpose. Judith Orloff, MD, author of the new book, 'The Genius of Empathy: Practical Skills to Heal Your Sensitive Self, Your Relationships and the World', will take you beyond the typical definition of empathy to show you how to empathize without over-giving or burning out. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, psychology, and energy medicine, Dr. Orloff will discuss how to access your sensitivities, soothe your nervous system, and stop absorbing the emotions of others. She'll also discuss the importance of empathic listening, setting healthy boundaries and loving detachment (especially with toxic relationships) to prevent overwhelm. All of us can learn to be more empathic - its genius is highly attainable. It's a superpower that's within everyone's reach. Empathy requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. When we reach for our most admirable kindness within, we find a path out of misunderstanding and hate. Practicing empathy recalibrates us toward healthier ways of behaving and perceiving the world. We learn to live in a more spacious, heartfelt place where we can see every situation from the most compassionate, big-picture place. Dr. Orloff will take live calls from listeners.
