IMPROVISED TAKEAWAYS & COMMITMENTS with Andrew Nemr, Nemr Institute & other Summit participants
We will be exploring those qualities, or the ingredients, of the alchemy of empathy, which are found in transformative experiences that leave us with new paradigms, perspectives, insights and understanding, all leading to an expanded sense of self that is aware of our interconnected existence within all of humanity and the planet --the oneness of being. Our hearts have the capacity to discern such qualities like beauty, trust, sincerity, justice, and love. Empathy is a key that can open windows from heart to heart.
