In this week's lesson, we will talk about  altruism and compassion. 

We'll hear about the science behind the importance of altruism and compassion for our own well-being, as well as the barriers to altruism and the risk of falling into empathy fatigue. 

We will also discuss how to overcome these barriers with the transformative practices of shared identity and turning values into actionable deeds.

In this meditation, we will explore what it feels like in our bodies to wish a loved one well. 

We then will expand that to ourselves, someone we consider neutral, someone who is challenging, and then all individuals. 

Take time to notice after you meditate how you feel when you spend time in this kind of connection with others.

In this week's talk, we discuss positive mindset and emotions and how they contribute to our overall well-being. 

We differentiate between positive emotions and toxic positivity, and discuss how we can savor positive moments in our lives. 

We also discuss gratitude and loving kindness and how these practices, in addition to creating more positive experiences in life can positively impact our brains.
