Inhalt: While you may feel compassion toward others, you yourself are always the first recipient of your own loving kindness and compassion. Recognizing this and connecting to your own experience of compassion is key to affecting others. For example, there are studies that show that a doctor with a caring bedside manner can affect a patient's well-being and recovery. In this installment of The Science of Compassion, Kelly McGonigal covers the benefits of offering a compassionate presence to someone who is stressed out or suffering. She details how to communicate a compassionate intention to others, through first examining what compassion looks like, and then showing how to communicate it through touch, body language, and listening with full attention.

Inhalt: Even if you consider yourself a compassionate person, feeling compassion all the time can simply be overwhelming, especially when confronted by large amounts of suffering. In this installment of The Science of Compassion series, Kelly McGonigal explores empathy fatigue and the concept of compassion collapse. As Kelly explains, compassion collapse happens in situations where, as the scale of suffering increases, people's compassion decreases. For example, your heart may break when you see one child go hungry, but may go numb when you hear about millions of children starving. It's common to feel helpless in the face of large-scale suffering, and this is a real barrier to compassion that can keep people from doing things that will make a difference. This session explores why our compassion sometimes collapses under the weight of large-scale suffering, and what we can do to sustain compassion and make a difference in the world.

Inhalt: How would you describe what compassion feels like? To some, there's an idealized notion of what compassion is. It can feel calm, pleasant, and peaceful. Often, however, you practice compassion in the most unpleasant of moments, like when you have to give someone devastating, life-changing news. Compassion can often encompass seemingly opposite emotions, like when you feel upset but also feel love, or sadness mixed with gratitude. Given that this kind of sympathetic awareness often evokes seemingly paradoxical emotions and reactions, a key to understanding how people react compassionately lies in the science of compassion. Specifically, what happens in your body when you feel compassion? In this installment of The Science of Compassion series, Kelly McGonigal examines the physical changes in your body-what it looks like in your brain, in your nervous system, and your physical, pounding heart-as compassion unfolds. Perhaps most importantly, she considers how understanding the biology of compassion can help you engage with suffering. This course was created by Sounds True.

Inhalt: If feeling compassion toward someone else may seem like an easy and even natural thing to do, why is it so hard to feel compassion for ourselves? In this installment of The Science of Compassion, Kelly McGonigal delves into this important question. The first reason, Kelly explains, is the confusion over what it even means to be self compassionate. Too often, people feel that caring for themselves is self-centered, self-indulgent, self-pity, or just plain selfish. This is explainable, for example, in that so many of our heroes and inspirational figures are people who sacrificed themselves for others. But as Kelly illustrates, the idea that self-care is self-indulgent reflects a misunderstanding of the nature of self compassion. Throughout this course, Kelly addresses an essential difficulty of self compassion: how do you achieve a sense of connection to the person who is suffering, when you are the one who is suffering?

Inhalt: In this installment of The Science of Compassion series, health psychologist Kelly McGonigal encourages you to think about ways in which genuinely caring for others can be a source of both meaning and courage, and can help support you through difficult experiences in your own life. While helping someone else while you yourself are suffering can seem like a puzzling phenomenon, throughout this course Kelly explains how lifting up others helps us as much as it helps the recipient of our compassion. She also illustrates the healing power of compassion through several techniques, like using words of encouragement to build up those around you and reduce their emotional pain, and how realizing that you have something to offer others can transform the way you feel about your own suffering. By the end of this course, you may feel inspired to create a narrative of your own suffering that includes being able to help others. This course was created by Sounds True.

Inhalt: Anger can be toxic. When you're angry, your body shifts into a state that isn't healthy, which can affect your cardiovascular, nervous, and immune systems. Additionally, holding grudges can lead to declines in your physical health over time. In this installment of The Science of Compassion, Kelly McGonigal shows how you can transform anger through compassion. Kelly explains how to use your own experience of anger, resentment, or even hate as an opportunity to both open and heal your heart. This audio-only course focuses on the benefits of and the best strategies for finding compassion for people who have harmed you or harmed others, and how to see someone who hurt you as someone who is also hurting. Kelly also shares stories of forgiveness and compassion that show that there are many ways to work with anger, and there's no one right way to find compassion in tough circumstances.

Inhalt: The Science of Compassion audio-only series takes a deep dive into the many forms and different aspects of compassion, and in this course, Kelly McGonigal begins to look at some of the more difficult types of compassion. As she explains, some forms of compassion require courage, to go beyond your compassion comfort zone and stretch your capacity to care, forgive, and embrace. Kelly examines the fears that people encounter when they start to broaden their compassion beyond what feels natural or easy, and highlights some of the most common fears of compassion and how to work through them. Also included is a guided practice you can use to help you embrace the lessons in this course, and recognize the interconnection of courage, fear, and compassion.

Inhalt: Why is compassion so powerful? Like many forms of spirituality and meditation, compassion practice has been shown by research to enhance your health, psychological well-being, relationships, and sense of purpose. In The Science of Compassion: Getting Started, health psychologist Kelly McGonigal lays out what to expect in the audio-only The Science of Compassion series. She presents a practical workshop to help you understand what makes compassion work, and how you can cultivate it in your life. Kelly examines the many benefits of compassion, not just to those who receive it, but also to those who give it, and to all who witness the act of compassion in action. Over the course of this series, she provides tools and guidance for overcoming emotional fatigue, empathic distress, self-judgment, and other obstacles that can keep you closed down and afraid to reach out.

Inhalt: One of the keys to understanding compassion, and how to act compassionately, is to recognize that compassion is not pure altruism. Just by showing compassion toward someone else, you also benefit from that act, as does anyone who witnesses or even hears about it later. This is centered around the concept that instructor Kelly McGonigal calls the upward spiral of compassion, and how one instance of compassion can affect a large swath of people who were not directly involved in the compassionate act. In this installment of The Science of Compassion series, Kelly explains how any single moment of compassion can benefit anyone who is near it, as the upward spiral sweeps people into its wake of compassion. As Kelly illustrates, compassion is not a closed system between the person being compassionate and the person receiving the compassion. It is more akin to a stone thrown into a pond, rippling outward-and inward. This course was created by Sounds True. We are pleased to offer this training in our library. Umfang: 00:37:43
Inhalt: While other installments in The Science of Compassion series have focused on compassion as a response to suffering, it is not the only possible response. In different situations you may feel guilt, anxiety, sadness, disgust, and sometimes even pleasure in response to someone's suffering. In this course, Kelly McGonigal focuses on a reaction that is often confused for compassion, which she calls empathic distress. This reaction occurs when you feel like you "catch" the other person's suffering and experience it as your own. We often experience contagious laughter, or even contagious yawning, but, as Kelly describes, negative emotions seem to be especially contagious. Crying, for instance, is contagious in adults as well as children. In this course on empathic distress, Kelly guides you through how to keep from feeling overwhelmed by another person's suffering.
