Empathy Circles
http://j.mp/QS1cBc
This is the home page for the Empathy Movement. One
of the primary ways we do movement building and practice empathy is through
Empathy Circles which are small groups that meet weekly via Google hangouts.
We invite you to join a circle. "Empathy
changes everything, we can grow it, and we are learning how. Yoohoo!
Being part of an Empathy Circle for over six months has been a profound
experience, and gives me hope for the future of humanity. It's fantastic
that the Centre for the Culture of Empathy is leading the way in
gathering, integrating and spreading the wisdom of empathy. I've dreamed
of this and I'm thrilled to be part of it!" Alice Aird
