Hello Friend, I see this so often…
Truly compassionate people—often in service to others—getting burned out from the sheer amount of pain they are witnessing.
And everything you do to relieve the burn-out only lasts for a little while, and then it starts all over again…
… the minute you watch the news, sit with a client, or help a family member.
But compassion was never meant to work this way.
You see, there’s been a missing piece in the way we think about compassion.
There is an ancient feminine approach to compassion that transforms it from something we give away…
into something that restores both the practitioner and the person receiving support.
