Sticker - Practice Radical Empathy

$4.00

Description

There are three kinds of empathy:⁠

  • Cognitive (to intellectually know another person's situation)⁠
  • Emotional (to know another person's situation and to reflect upon a similar situation you have experienced & how that made you feel)⁠
  • Compassionate (to know someone's situation, to intuit how it might feel to be in that situation and to use that knowledge and feeling to take action). ⁠ ⁠

Compassionate empathy requires going beyond our own feelings, though, because we can assume the other person feels the way we have felt, when perhaps they don't at all. Well-meaning, empathizing people can still cause harm. (Like Hermione's attempt at freeing house elves; she never asks them how they feel, or what they need).⁠

You will receive one 3" x 1.9" waterproof sticker printed with high quality opaque ink on weatherproof vinyl, sturdy enough for your water bottle and your car (or bike) and dishwasher safe. The adhesive is permanent, though -- so make sure you'll want it forever wherever you do stick it!
