The Universal Expressions of Love, Part 2: Compassion

Description:

Compassion – the tender resonance of heart – awakens as we allow ourselves to be touched by our shared vulnerability.

This series reflects on four primary expressions of an awake, wise heart: lovingkindness, compassion, joy and equanimity. In each talk we explore the habitual patterning that blocks our full realization of these innate capacities, and the understandings and practices that nurture their unfolding.

In this talk, Tara explores

the all-inclusive nature of compassion in awakening our hearts and embracing all beings with care and presence. how evolutionary conditioning limits compassion, yet reveals our brain's natural wiring for empathy and connection. the common blocks to compassion, like fear, stress, and busyness, which pull us into a trance of disconnection. the essential role of self-compassion and kindness toward ourselves in deepening our ability to care for others. how to make compassion a lasting trait, by fully feeling and savoring moments of care so they shape who we are.
