James R Doty on the Neuroscience of Compassion and Altruism

Caring for others, being kind, being of service to others, that is the thing that gives life meaning, that is the thing that ultimately gives one transcendence, if you will, and ultimately, is what gives you great sustenance and nutrition and to have a life of meaning.
What if the secret to a happier, more fulfilling life lies in compassion? In this thought-provoking episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with James R Doty, MD, a neurosurgeon and the Director of the Center for Compassion and Altruism Research and Education at Stanford University. Dr. Doty brings a unique blend of medical expertise and heartfelt wisdom to the table, exploring how compassion and altruistic behavior can profoundly impact our well-being.
He delves into fascinating topics like the neuroscience behind compassion, heart rate variability, and the power of meaningful connections. Dr. Doty also shares compelling research on how giving and serving others can lead to a more enriched life. Whether you're looking to deepen your understanding of compassion or seeking ways to improve your emotional health, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
