What if you knew that compassion was the antidote to healing our hurt, hate-filled world? Would you know how to use it in every circumstance, with family, friends, and strangers alike? Would you be open to doing so, even when it involved acts that may seem unforgivable? Would you be willing to be gentle and sympathetic with yourself?
If you’re like many people, your heart desires to be compassionate, yet your head may simply not possess the blueprint for saying those right words at the right time, or for seeing things from a compassionate perspective rather than a judgmental one.
After losing my mom in a tragic accident, I was devastated. Witnessing how people responded to me, how my family grieved differently, and how I responded, I went on to become a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist and Transformational Life Coach. But I also became a keen observer of how people were missing a huge opportunity to operate with more compassion, even if it wasn't something they had been taught.
