Compassion With Equanimity

Equanimity is especially important for people in caregiving professions, like educators, because it reminds us of how little control we have over other people’s suffering, and it gives us perspective so we can meet each moment and each individual with compassion. In this exercise, you’ll practice repeating phrases that help bring greater equanimity into your life. However, please know that you can always tailor the equanimity phrases so they feel authentic for you.
