Wonderful and helpful video. I especially loved the distinction of emotional empathy and cognitive empathy. I've trained at this for years without specific terminology as I show Brene Brown's empathy video and then add my own take/definition that empathy is "less about what you feel and more about where you are" (am I sitting down beside you to understand your worldview and challenges). The conversation around sympathy left me wondering whether there might be a Venn diagram here with sympathy one circle (I feel for you), empathy the other (I want to understand your world and your pain), and compassion the overlap (I genuinely, altruistically care about you). Thank you for always stretching my understanding of MI.
@drstansteindl3 күн бұрын
Yes! I love the idea of the Venn diagram. Perhaps compassion might be depicted as a three circle Venn diagram: sympathy, empathy, and action? And I love Brene Brown and some of her animation videos are so great. I am not sure I agree with her take on sympathy in one of them, but I love her idea that compassion needs to come along with boundaries. Thanks again!

Wonderful, what a philosophical conversation 😊Nevertheless deep, insightful and supportive. The story of the group meeting of Jewish and Muslim was personally supportive and insightful as an Israeli these days. It's occurred to me few time while listening, that based on my personal experience of being able to opened up to compassion, that for one to really being able and be compassionate helpful with human being and self, it's required allot off as the teaching saying "back to the body" practices. Also to have even the basic knowledge of human development and emotional needs in order to have the capacity to act from a calm/regulated physiology stance, one that can recognize what is harmful and what is helpful. Complex it is, and unfortunately unavailable to all or raise resistance in others. Maybe that's why our world is struggling to be compassionate 🥴 P.S the topic of Shaming, although 'easy' to understand, something in me do wish if it would be interested by you to elaborate on that, maybe from the perspective of the threat or drive system or both (is it the inner critic of the one who do the shaming who motivates and 'runs the show' ?). 🙏🏻
@drstansteindl3 күн бұрын
Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply and kind words of encouragement! And yes, "bringing it back to the body" and creating a sense of calmness and safeness really is a key step towards cultivating compassion for self and others. You're right when you say that this is difficult for some and for others it can evoke resistance. People are often threat system activated, and this makes it very difficult. But a calm mind, when it is achieved, is much more able to recognise harmful from helpful. Re shame...I have a few videos on the topic of shame that you might be interested in, such as kzfaq.info/get/bejne/n7-Bhsdz1qfVqqs.html - and there are others as well. But I think it is a good idea to revisit the topic! Thank you again for your interest and thoughtful comments!

Been practicing a few days. The phrase "i wish to be loved" the most touching for me; emotionally honest, soothing, subtly energizing, peaceful, in a bubble of calmness. Why? A tender child "wishes", it's his/her "innocent" need and request to the Love Nucleus of the Universal---where it came from. 2) It's an active state, "to be", not a repeated grievance, past, i.e. "wish i WAS loved". 3) non-specific, no limits how it appears... gorgeous sunset, stranger's smile, call from a friend, a deep connection inside, heart and toes tingling (aura expansion). 4) easily morphs into "i wish To Be love". Now touching the "I am" souce of me inside, ie, "i am Love" becomes the dominate experience of self/Self and world. (Until you allow a distraction to de-rail this beauty-truth for a moment.) Mind-watching with self-compassion will bring you back to that "state of being" you naturally enjoy and want more than all else, and initiate all actions from in the world. Eventually (i hope), such becomes our tangible, expansive beingness Itself, beyond all events, hi and low, big or small, all constrasts or evaluations of the judging (critical) mind. Peace to all in need.

For those of you who struggle with self love and worth here is what clicked for me: Love the LIFE inside of you, see it as the wonder it is, marvel at it and you will, I hope, find yourself in the magical realm that is life itself. For me “self love” was some impossible psychological trick until I understood that “my” life is just part of LIFE. Then it clicked.

I became very deliberate a month ago - I saw clearly that to get the life I want I have to want the life I have. And that meant doing the work of shedding… everything turned around so fast the bliss actually scared me. Then two days ago I woke up with Bells Palsy. This is too specific to me and my stuff but I absolutely believe this arrived as the opportunity I need to face the shame I am ashamed of having - the shame for the things I wouldn’t do today to save or preserve anything. I miss the life I lost to being an asshole and I am so afraid I’ll never be able to build something beautiful again. But I want to and that’s a sign I’m caipable

What a compassionate conversation. I have deeply resonate with the "Civil War" idea, it's definitely an internal civil (parts) war where the inner critic attacking it's on system (community) parts and where himself have been created by neglecting care givers which were supposed to be the safe "civil" to internalize. Speaking of Schema Therapy, one of the things that supports me allot to activate the soothing system and restoring the capacity for self compassion is children books, and recently there are few new ones about self compassion for kids which are simply amazing. It's OK -Wendy O'Leary and Good Morning, I Love you, Violet ! - Shauna Shapiro PhD. Maybe interesting to hear your thoughts on those books 😊

Thank you for watching and commenting. Your elaboration around the ‘civil war’ idea is really helpful. And CFT definitely does try to think about it a multiplicity/multiple selves/parts kind of way.

He disparaged the Secret program AND Rhonda Byrne in typical yesterday's Stanford mysogynist misunderstanding! The spiritual FLOW of connecting with the HIGHEST AND BEST GOOD for EVERYONE is definitely taught by all the teachers he mentioned, but Doty's EGO has not found balance, equilibrium or ANY spiritual humility or connection! Like MANY successful academics and scientists, he is thinking correctly (finally) about the necessity of COMPASSION and KINDNESS, as so many of us already have found. However, his compassion has not found its depth yet. He is still BRAGGING about his accomplishments!! GREAT, he did good at Stanford ( full disclosure: I"m a UC Berkeley grad, older than Doty and have studied with, learned things from as best I could, and become Friends with almost ALL of those brilliant spiritual leaders.} Doty is on HIS path, but has not yet encountered his INNER MYSTIC. Good luck, blessings, and stay the course of COMPASSION. {A TEST: how much compassion do I have for each homeless American, or Palestinian, or Columbian citizen who is homeless in the hundreds at your door!} And, his compassion does not yet extend to those who suffer with negative attitudes!! I am an energy psychologist and hypnotherapist, and recommend to Doty that he go much DEEPER into himself. I think Dick Schwartz's IFS therapeutic approach might be transformative for Mr Doty. Thank You. Blessings, love and PEACE to both of you for ALL the GOOD you are intending to do!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Beautiful, thank you! I have been learning more about schema therapy and this episode is such a wonderful bridge between the two therapies, which seem to have so much common ground. I see so much commonality between the Healthy Adult and the Compassionate Self as well as between "multiple selves" and schemas/modes. I believe I first encountered schemas (at least in terms of schema therapy) from a book by Chris Germer, including the value in being able t o identify schemas as "tender spots" we can remain aware of in our self-compassion practice. So, thank you for bringing this subject to your series! Much wonderful food for thought.

Theres nothing wrong with wanting physical items like a nice car or a nice house. Using the moralistic terms "self serving, narcissistic" is totally out of line when describing someone who simply wants a perfectly legit thing, be it a Ford Fiesta or a Porsche, a 1 bed flat or an 8 bed house. This guy is literally just describing "the secret", but using slightly different terminology, so as to lend himself an aura of authority - to sell a book that doesn't really add anything practical to the subject that hasn't been described in dozens of existing books. He is just saying the same thing, maybe with a weak reference here or there, his book isn't the "antithesis of the secret". He, in fact, is the narcissist - not those applying the "law of attraction", ie. those attuning their mind to that which they want (rather than that which they don't want), and didn't need his advice on how to do so.

You mention the fact of a person having intrinsic worth for just being human, however I was raised Catholic and told that you had no worth outside of your value as being good enough according to your efforts to God and your parents.

Yes, you make a great point. Our experiences growing up can be very powerful in terms of self-worth and self-compassion. Religion, culture, family environment, and so many other contextual factors during childhood can shape our sense of self and our sense of self-worth, and we can feel very stuck. With time and practice we can sometimes shift these feelings, but it’s hard. As Kristin said, if we can begin with moments of self-compassion, becoming aware of our own suffering, knowing we are not alone, and then offering ourselves kindness, then we can begin to ease our own suffering and move towards growth and flourishing.
