214 // Compassion: Where Love Meets Suffering and Remains Love

<p>We all go through hard times. People we love experience hard things. What do we do when we are faced with the suffering of others? It can be easy to either push it away because it is too painful to see, or we can go the other way and fully immerse ourselves in a way that is more enmeshment than compassion.</p> <p>In this episode, Taralyn shares some personal experiences that have recently invited her to delve deep into what it means to be compassionate. She uses the work of Brene Brown, Kristin Neff, and Chris Germer to define what compassion is, what it is not, and how to use the power of true compassion to love people in the middle of their suffering.</p> <p><strong>Related episodes:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000430103708"><u>Parenting with Unconditional Love&nbsp;</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000561990819"><u>179 // Do You Want a House Full of Kind Kids this Summer?
