We’re happy to hear that so many of you are enjoying Karla McLaren<\/a>‘s wonderful new book The Art of Empathy: A Complete Guide to Life’s Most Essential Skill<\/em><\/a>. In it, Karla describes what she refers to as the single most important skill that we have to directly and radically improve our relationships and emotional life – but one that has been quite misunderstood.<\/p>\n

Informed by current insights from neuroscience, social psychology, and healing traditions, this book explores:<\/p>\n

– Why empathy is not a mystical phenomenon but a natural, innate ability that we can strengthen and develop
\n– How to identify and regulate our emotions and boundaries
\n– The process of shifting into the perspective of others
\n– How to provide support in a sensitive and healthy way
\n– Insights for navigating our hyper-connected social landscape
\n– Targeted chapters for improving family, workplace, and intimate relationships
\n– Ways to expand our empathy to our community, global levels of society, and the natural world<\/p>\n

In addition to the book, Karla has also recorded an original seven-hour audio learning course on The Art of Empathy<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n
