    Through the 366 daily meditations, you’ll learn new ways of viewing familiar everyday situations and discover tools to transform those situations into opportunities for connection and personal growth. Each meditations in this gathering of wisdom is designed to move readers away from turmoil, strife, and divisiveness and lead them toward peace, resolution, and cooperation.

    This shift in consciousness is challenging, but with the words and ideas of this book, readers can assemble a collection of practical tools for peaceful living. The learned behaviors of hate and resentment and the cycles of revenge are broken down and replaced with the skills of nonviolent communication, including recognizing one's needs and values and making behavior choices in alignment with them. This collection presents new ways of viewing familiar situations and daily reminders of the value of living compassionately. Each meditation includes an inspirational quote and tips for integrating the message into the reader's life.

      By Practicing

      The Power Of Empathy

      Find A Group
    • Hello & Welcome!

      With ten years experience leading teams and five years working as an Intuitive Healer & Kinesiologist, I now inspire people to find happiness, purpose and connection by practicing the power of empathy.

       

      I do this by facilitating Empathy Groups, teaching Compassionate Communication workshops and offering 1-1 Coaching Sessions.

      Read More About Me
    • "Empathy is the ability to share someone else's feelings or experiences by imagining what it would be like to be in that person's situation."

      Cambridge Dictionary

    • How Empathy Can Help You

      Have you ever had the experience of someone really being there for you? Listening intently, being present with your sharing, not going into their own story or judging you?

       

      If so, then you already know how powerful and healing this experience is. When we are truly empathised with, the emotional pain that we are in lightens and often disappears completely.

       

      Every good professional who works in a caring role, practices empathy. Every good businessperson or leader, who understands that they need to connect with their client or team before making a request, practices empathy.

       

      And when you truly care about someone, your natural state is to drop into empathy with them.

       

      As humans we are born to connect. But somewhere along the way, we have lost our way. We have isolated ourselves into our houses (especially in urban areas) and only connect with others when we have to. We have to pay someone to get the empathy we need. And in that session, we don't learn how to offer empathy to others, because the focus is still on us and our pain.

       

      How Do We Fix This?

       

      By coming together and learning how to practice real empathy.

       

      By receiving empathy - we feel grateful and at peace from having so many needs met - being heard, acknowledged, connected with others, support and clarity.

       

      By offering empathy - we feel happy that we have helped someone. Our need to contribute is met and we find a sense of purpose in life. It puts our own pain into perspective and allows us to feel less alone in the world.

       

      This is the joy of giving.

       

      So simple, but so powerful.

       

      This formula has the power to change you, your community and the world.

       

      Imagine if we could receive empathy everywhere we went... what a better place the world would be!

       

      It is time to get core empathy skills out from the traditional roles of healer, counsellor, teacher, nurse, social worker, carer etc and spread these skills more widely in the community.

    • "Giving is receiving. When our attention is on giving and joining with others, fear is removed and we accept healing for ourselves."

      Gerald G. Jampolsky, M.D.
