Podcasts about wisdom compassion

Episode 119. In today's solo episode, I'm going to share some of what I've learned about IFS and how it works based on both my personal and professional experiences thus far. I'm also going to talk about learning to slow down, how it's a journey I'm still on, and how IFS helps me actually do it, specifically focusing on my example of my Overworking Part, which I learned as I talked through this episode is very linked with my "Optimizing my Experience" Part (also described in my episode with Randi Rubenstein). In this episode I share my process of recognizing my Overworking/Optimizing Parts, appreciating them, and helping to do things (like record this episode for you!) from a more embodied and grounded place. In the middle of the episode, I lead you through an IFS based meditation to get to know a Protector Part of yours, Overworking Part or otherwise. Then I cover 3 of the main lessons I've learned from experiencing IFS. Without further ado, let's dive in! But First, Words of Wisdom “Compassion as a spontaneous aspect of Self blew my mind, because I'd always assumed and learned that compassion was something you had to develop. There's this idea—especially in some spiritual circles—that you have to build up the muscle of compassion over time, because it's not inherent. Again, that's the negative view on human nature at play. To be clear, what I mean by compassion is the ability to be in Self with somebody when they're really hurting and feel for them, but not be overwhelmed by their pain. You can only do that if you've done it within yourself. That is, if you can be with your own exiles without blending and being overwhelmed by them and instead show them compassion and help them, then you can do the same for someone in pain who's sitting across from you.”― Richard C. Schwartz, No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model The Top 3 Lessons I Have Learned Through Experiencing IFS Cognitive Self-Compassion is Very Different Than Heart Self Compassion. It's totally different. And I was definitely always practicing the cognitive type. This really came to light for me when I talked with Dr. Allyn Richards in episode 108 (you can listen here). We both experienced compassion for ourselves by practicing IFS in a way that was totally different than anything we've tried to do in the past. You Have to Life it to Give It. Hearing this always felt annoying to me. But also so true. I always heard that you shouldn't teach meditation if you don't have a meditation practice. Well, I occasionally taught it, but I definitely didn't have a practice. Talking About Parts is Very Different than Talking to and Building a Relationship with Parts. One of my trainers in my Level 1 mentioned that she often sees therapists saying they are doing IFS, when really they are talking about parts with clients, which can be helpful. Many of us, therapists especially, have developing amazing conceptualization and analyzing parts that helped us a TON. And also, they are still parts. When you truly build a relationship with and honor these parts, new levels of healing and embodiment open up, likely that you didn't believe were truly possible.

Lama Ahbay Tulku Jigme Thupten Tendar Rinpoche was born in Darjeeling, India in 1973. In the Tibetan calendar the day of his birth is known as “The Auspicious Day with Ten Good Omens.” In 1979, Khabche Zong Rinpoche visited the hill station of Darjeeling and saw that it time for him to enter the monastery. In the same year the abbot of Gaden Jangtse Monastery in South India gave him the name Jigme Phuntsok, and he received the robes of a monk. When he was nine years old he was fully initiated into monkhood and the tutor of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Khabche Ling Rinpoche gave him the name Thupten Tendar. When he was twelve, His Holiness the Dalai Lama identified him as the reincarnation of the hermit Lama Lobsang Tenzin. One year later he was enthroned as Tulku in Gaden Jangtse Monastery. From the age of twenty-five on he studied the Abidharma (Treasure of Knowledge) for three years followed by the Vinaya (Disciplines). These four major Buddhist texts, together with another text called Namdrel (Valid cognition), all are called Panchaparamita (Five major texts of Buddhist studies). Sam and Lama Ahbay will discuss Wisdom & Compassion, The 6 Perfections, and how to develop A Peaceful Mind. Segment 1: We all are interdependent. If you thank and love others, they automatically give it back to you, and from their, we have peace. If you love, you are emotionally positive and others feel that positivity. Segment 2: What are the six perfections? generosity- giving will give one “good karma” ethics- body, mind, and speech tolerance- effort concentraion wisdom How do we apply these?: Only with practice. Segment 3: Meditation is extremely important. Start off with short meditations and build your way up to longer meditations. That way you don't lose concentration by starting off with meditations that are too long. Focus on your breath. Segment 4: Click here to email Lama Ahaby if you have any questions about his projects and appearences. Short prayer for the audience.

The Gorilla, KoKo, was taught sign language by Dr. Penny Patterson, an animal psychologist and eventually had over 1000 words in her vocabulary. When Robin Williams died, she mourned him, because he was her friend. KoKo also knew Mr. Fred Rogers. This month PBS aired a special program, Mr. Rogers: It's You I Like, to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. One of the most powerful segments, was Fred Rogers interacting with and communicating with KoKo. She wanted to sit on his lap, but Dr. Patterson told her that she would crush him. So Fred hugged KoKo and at one point they were totally wrapped around each other. Of the 900 shows Fred Rogers did, the one with KoKo was among his favorites. At the end of their visit, KoKo signed to Fred, I love you. It was clear that Fred was thoroughly enjoying himself. He told his audience: She really has feelings for people and things.” Please join us Thursday to learn about the wisdom, compassion and souls of animals.

Having made the decision to become a Buddhist Monk at just 10 years old, the venerable Tenzin Priyadarshi, the president and CEO of the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has dedicated his life to promoting empathy and conflict resolution, and is involved in the ongoing dialogue between Buddhism, meditation, and neuroscience.“One of the things I've found is that if you have to tell me [that you're on the path to spiritual enlightenment], then you're not on the path, because your actions are the manifestation of being on the path.”In this episode of Into the Magic Shop, Tenzin discusses the role we all play as teachers in one another's life, the three forms of generosity promoted in Buddhism, why we need to learn to step out of fear so that we can make better choices and better decisions, and the contrast between solitude and loneliness. “Solitude is a choice. It's a willful choice. Loneliness is generally an imposition. It comes from certain kinds of feeling of alienation or experiences of alienation.”To learn more about Tenzin's work at the Dalai Lama Center for Ethics and Transformative Values, download and listen to this episode.  On today's podcast: How to overcome the need for validation The difference between judgment and discernment How to find light amid the darkness Why empathy is a public health issue
