“People may forget what you say…but they will never forget how you made them feel.”
—Maya Angelou
Empathy is so much more than feeling deeply―it holds a transformative power to heal ourselves, strengthen our relationships, and amplify our purpose.
Empathy is a form of emotional intelligence that you can learn and develop. It’s a healing act, whether you’re on the giving or receiving end. Empathy doesn’t limit discernment. It allows you to be more caring with yourself and others. It is an alive healing energy that is medicine for your mind, body, and soul and will illuminate every aspect of your life.
Join Judith Orloff, MD, author of The Genius of Empathy: Practical Skills to Heal Your Sensitive Self, Your Relationships and the World as she takes you beyond the typical definition of empathy to teach you how to empathize without over-giving or burning out. Drawing on insights from neuroscience, psychology, and energy medicine, Dr. Orloff will show you how to access your sensitivities, soothe your nervous system, and stop absorbing the emotions of others. You’ll also learn the art of empathic listening, how to stop overthinking, and the importance of setting healthy boundaries and loving detachment (especially with toxic relationships) to prevent overwhelm.
Participants will learn:
