8 Facets of Compassion: A Strategy to Survive + Stabilize + Alchemize

Feminine Power Time 262: The 8 Facets of Compassion
A Strategy to Survive + Stabilize + Alchemize
(#3 in Genuine Power Series)

 

In this episode, we will explore the genuine power of compassion and the model of the 8 facets of compassion – a super power for how we can navigate and show up during intense and changing times. 

Compassion is one of the most powerful energies we have as leaders of our own lives as well as in our teams, families, organizations, communities, projects and the society we co-create. 

But compassion is also one of those things that can feel so vast that we don’t know quite how to employ it – especially in realms like business, our work projects, or in situations that trigger our own defense mechanisms and sense of safety.

One of my super powers is taking big, vast concepts like compassion and breaking them down so we can practically access and use this power in ways that elevate and influence the fields of interaction we find ourselves — within ourselves, with others, the world or a situation we find ourselves in.

Between 2010-2015 I did a deep dive into the “energy” of compassion – to understand it and break it down into what I call the 8 Facets of Compassion.

I’ve been practicing and teaching these 8 facets ever since, not as a perfection to live up to, but as a practice and a strategy to come home to.

Compassion is an ‘energy’ that we choose to give, offer, speak from, stand in, embody, show up in. Energy has a frequency band – from lower and higher frequencies. We can’t see the energy frequency but we sure can feel it within ourselves and from others!

As I look around at the tools, perspectives, practices that can give us super power NOW to survive, stabilize, and elevate ourselves, and the people, projects, and systems we lead, love and influence, COMPASSION is at the top of the list.

This episode is a little longer because compassion requires us to slow down 🙂 breath 🙂 and get into our bodies and hearts 🙂 Here’s some of what we will explore together:

• What compassion is and what it isn’t (hint: it’s not about being nice or condoning)
• What compassion does to distorted power and leadership (stealth super power!)
• Feeling compassion as a frequency – (a meditation)
• The “Ick” factor that drags us down + how compassion can clear off the ick
• The 8 facets of compassion + how to use them to now

See you there!
