I've been reflecting a lot over the past week on how challenging it is to be a human being right now, given the state of the world, given the state of the political climate, given the emotional angst and grief and pain and fear that is so pervasive. It is challenging to be ourselves, to be embodied, to embrace our own emotional interiors, and for us empaths – who over index on feeling – that much more difficult. However, I do believe that one of the most radical acts we can take right now is to embrace our own humanity, to embrace being a human being, rather than a human doing.Throughout this episode I'll be sharing 12 truths that will help you protect your heart from calcifying and commit to thrive rather than survive as an empath.
Topics:
How emotional exhaustion, burnout, and fear can calcify our hearts, making it difficult to stay open, compassionate, and engaged in activism and daily life
Learning to set boundaries, say no, and protect our emotional energy for sustained activism and personal well-being
How embracing joy, love, and presence is a radical and necessary act of resistance in overcoming fear
How to be intentional about where we invest our time, emotions, and compassion, understanding that we cannot be everything to everyone
The different ways that lovelessness fuels consumerism and fear and choosing love and care instead to protect our health and our humanity
