In this Health-FULL episode, we discuss the differences between Sympathy, Empathy & Compassion. What is a healthy state to deliver care in? Is it good for mental health to be in a constant state of empathy?
Being in a position of balanced mental health and wellness is extremely important to avoid the jaws of stress and anxiety. Taking on emotional patterns of others by unknowingly being too empathetic, can be damaging in the long-term.
We discuss real life scenarios with our patients that have shaped us into the practitioners we are today. This is a vulnerable episode. We discuss patient mortality, and the first time we had a patient pass away - while they were under our care umbrella. We elaborate on our grief and chat about the amazing relationships that are formed with patients over the course of many years,
We love this Health-FULL topic and hope you enjoy the show.
Yours in health, Monica & Forrest
