In this episode Christy and Rob discuss:
- Compassion vs self-pity
- Giving from the overflow
- Escaping powerlessness through compassion
Key Takeaways:
- Compassion is different from feeling sorry for ourselves. Self-pity has certain negative energy around it, while compassion feels like a warm loving hug. Compassion neutralizes us, catapults us from negative feelings into positive emotions.
- Give from the saucer, not from the cup. You gotta have self-compassion before you can give compassion to anybody else.
- Compassion for yourself gets you out of the victim mindset, it will help you get yourself out of powerlessness.
“Compassion is like a reset button. Compassion leads you to start feeling good.” – Christy Whitman
