Empathy, kindness & compassion: Keys to better health | Stephen Trzeciak

In this episode of Compassion in a T-Shirt, Dr. Steven Trzeciak discusses the concept of a 'compassion crisis' characterised by declining empathy and kindness. Drawing from various studies, primarily from the U.S., Dr. Trzeciak emphasises the importance of evidence-based compassion in healthcare and everyday life. He highlights how small compassionate actions, even as brief as 40 seconds, can significantly impact mental well-being and overall health. The conversation delves into the neuroscience behind compassion, the misconception of 'compassion fatigue,' and the importance of authentic empathy. Dr. Trzeciak also underscores the evolutionary benefit of altruistic behaviour and suggests that much of the perceived lack of time for compassion is a mindset issue rather than a reality.TIME STAMPS:00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:12 Understanding the Compassion Crisis04:04 Impact of Social Media on Empathy08:35 The Importance of Serving Others18:13 Defining Compassion and Empathy24:29 Compassion in Healthcare32:48 The Power of Small Acts43:13 Time and Compassion: Evidence-Based Insights50:48 Conclusion and Final Thoughts TARGETED PLAYLIST LINK:Compassion in a T-Shirt: In SessionLINKS:Compassionomics: The Revolutionary Scientific Evidence That Caring Makes a Difference. https://www.amazon.com.au/Compassionomics-Revolutionary-Scientific-Evidence-Difference/dp/1622181069/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.RIRUPyFzq40K03PP47gfih0pQuG34pUTTc-LefDQMtfct9MgxLiD2zfjH4BVpNAe7UovU7DYnxGsvbXX2l6R_-o8rDafCdEVValt9WeQGnMFuVowCa9OXK6_5ZzA5S5j0R9gd7S9s6i9RbcuhE8LA8lQIe68LZIbeKTs-QayhF3MJpa6yfRFbwUkTM5aWmxjXbjow3hE88XORcQCkpgrqhdDB1J3Yi9yGWNf2W_aYeg-uqPHioIOoV-prgk__bMpXE9TllIfUDaE5x0afd29-O8zT_VYhIdyqHM_ITUv91I.95lM44xjl77_D0aA-fffFK8c3VST86HxR7Zrp5_8buw&qid=1723187055&sr=8-1 Wonder Drug: 7 Scientifically Proven Ways That Serving Others Is the Best Medicine for Yourself https://www.amazon.com.au/Wonder-Drug-Scientifically-Medicine-Yourself/dp/1250809045/ref=sr_1_2?crid=20LC5J4MJJRJP&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.UiKwfKV0lOivCgIXuhOHO1rQpxhadY5Rdq5BEdYZn-2ApbBm_MBxK3XJs2KQ0THgK1k0qGTEPODRI1Ar6rI8UQn7_5xNtq2_X7W6enGRNjn2GwhLgFH_zVZ8nsv6FrefuVifDmPz17mr7wL-i42gu0UPVSuL2K_gY1xY7b87mFDmYemcurgn7QLVA5GEntZk84q2yrC7KiasRdFRksnykUhHwmw7DrD_scVUQn0TKHsCSnApD1noc27XFfBHTPLXhQ2YNJoI0o1owGvrP5YbqPXvHubSxsrujXQtb_WO0z4.6J_TzymbfKL9jwxIMWwXnhpXrpKKIl3LltFwTNhRk_M&dib_tag=se&keywords=wonder+drug&qid=1723187124&sprefix=wonder+drug%2Caps%2C237&sr=8-2 If you would like to learn more about compassion focused therapy, you can find Dr Stan Steindl's book The Gifts of Compassion here: https://www.amazon.com.au/Gifts-Compassion-understand-overcome-suffering/dp/1925644480Say hi on social:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drstansteindlTwitter: https://twitter.com/StanSteindlInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_stan_steindl/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stan-steindl-150a5264/Website: https://www.stansteindl.com/YouTube Video URL: https://youtu.be/SGURD_03SLE*Affiliate Disclaimer:Note this description contains affiliate links that allow you to find the items mentioned in this video and support the channel at no cost to you.
