What a wonderful article Shelly! This is a book I need to lean into. Thank you so much for publishing it, and helping people set their words free. Hope those hands are feeling better. Bless you. 🙏❤️
Welcome back to the land of the hands! I relate so much to this topic, Shelley. As a doctor, I watch my colleagues sink under the weight of the brokenness of our health systems - snakes that have begun to eat themselves. And yet there is always light, always hope in the midst of it all, and I agree with your author that we can only offer these things if we have offered them to ourselves first.
Hi Melissa! My hands and I are happy to be typing and handwriting again! Thumbs up! Thank you for lifting up the brokenness of the health systems, but that there is light if self-caring happens. I'm so grateful for the physicians and nurses and other healers who take care to show up whole because then I do feel more cared for, listened to, as a patient. I appreciate your writings and approach to life that exemplifies true-self-care. :)
What a great post, Shelly! Wonderful quotes!! And such an intriguing book by David Kopacz (published by you!!! WOW!) Many congratulations 🥂🎉 to birthing what looks like an essential book to human surviving the anthropocentric madness...
I love David's use of 'verbing' for the practice, which resonates very much with my own work... (due to growing awareness of needing to write in more process oriented language, learning from indigenous languages, and moving from anthropocentric to symbiocentric language)
Compassioning❣️ Such a great word❣️❣️
I have also been thinking a lot about self-caring and self-compassioning for many years, ... (which is central to the practice of Synchronosophy too, albeit coming from a different angle)
There is so much in this post. I'll have to read it again. And looking forward to listening to your conversation with David.
Thank you so much, Veronika! I am a big fan of "verbing" too. Dave's many words and ten dimensions of being fully human feel kindred to your work to me as well. It's great to know so many kindhearted, like-hearted people are working toward a more compassioning world!
