Edwin Rutsch interviews Marie Miyashiro, author:

I believe there are two ways to nourish a culture
of empathy. One is simply one person at a time. The connection I
have with you in this moment. What I might share with someone else
that I know well or might not know well. Everything from the most
imitate relationships we have to relationships that might be
fleeting or causal. Those connections, which does not take a long
time, it could be just a few seconds even, can be so profound for
people that it can create a change in them. |

Empathy, learning how to grow into a place within
yourself, where you are least likely to be triggered by what's
going on around you, is not only a practice of self-empathy but of
self awareness. I would say that any practice that increases self
awareness is a companion piece to empathy. And in fact many
workplaces are paying for and providing employees with time to
meditate, time to journal, time to go for walks during their lunch
breaks, fitness, nutrition. These are are all companion
pieces to self care. |
