Welcome to the Karuna Training Podcast: an exploration of Buddhist contemplative psychology. Join our faculty members as they delve into various topics, sharing their reflections and profound wisdom along the way.
The word Karuna means compassion in Sanskrit. Karuna Training brings together a community of people who trust the wisdom of the world to awaken our compassionate hearts. We can learn to resource ourselves and integrate our experiences to live a more empowered life. The world needs all of our compassion, health, and wisdom.

Uncovering Polarization: Cultivating Compassionate Exchange with Sandra Ladley
Are you overwhelmed by the news and your reactions? Are you holding back from conversations because of how you or others may react? Do you feel trapped in negativity or hopelessness, ready to boil over or give up?
In this fraught election year and these painful times, we take sides and harden our hearts against perceived enemies. We know that hatred and aggression - and ignorance and nihilism - are not long-term strategies. How can we find shared ground to serve the well-being of our communities and planet? How can we tap into the strength and wisdom of our compassionate hearts?
In this discussion, Sandra explores Uncovering Polarization: Cultivating Compassionate Exchange. Please note this talk has been edited to protect the safety of participants.

Informative & Supportive!
I love that there is an audio version of the Karuna Lives when I can't attend virtually! So convenient for my nature walks!
