Understanding Compassion

In Understanding Compassion, Martina Faulkner explains why compassion is one of the best things we can practice on a daily basis. By understanding how to cultivate compassion in our lives, we become better equipped to create pathways to connection with one another-which is part of our natural state of being. Taking a deep dive into explaining what it means to be a caregiver (including the challenges often faced by Sideline Caregivers), Faulkner shares the most important tool we can use to develop our compassion and how it benefits us, both personally and on a global level.

In addition to exploring the roots of compassion and how it can play out in our lives, this book offers tools to help build compassion from the inside out. It also pays particular attention to the role compassion plays in caregiving. As the population continues to age, more and more people are finding themselves in the role of caregiver (or sideline caregiver), which adds a layer of complication to an already overextended life. Understanding the basics of compassion can help.

Purposefully designed to be both informative and inspiring, this book invites the reader to shift their perspective in how to build healthy relationships, resulting in a more joyful and peace-filled life. Understanding Compassion is the sixth book to be released as part of Faulkner's UNDERSTANDING series. The first five books, Understanding Karma, Understanding Grief, Understanding Gratitude, Understanding Resilience and Understanding Energy are available to order wherever books are sold.
