On today’s episode, we’re taking a look at a twitter thread from one of our favorite psychologists, Hillary McBride. She talked about the power of comparative suffering, and how we can learn more about our own pain, and our ability (or inability) to cultivate empathy, by ranking our pain. She normalizes this as part of being human. What a load off during Quarantine! Gratitude grows when we realize what we do have, in comparison to others. And compassion increases when we find ways to act, to give, to receive from others.
We need to continue to realize our own needs, share them with people we love and trust, and do our best not to let envy or resentment grow, but instead let gratitude and compassion be our portion. We’re rooting for you dear Why Tho listeners! You’re the best part of our week!We love you dear listener - blessing you daily as we endure this pandemic together!
