Many people view mindfulness as an emptying of the mind, but this is not entirely true. Mindfulness encompasses the body, observing thoughts, and being situated in the world around us. In today’s episode we are joined by Dr. Bassam Khoury to explore how mindfulness and compassion work together in a dual approach to improve our overall wellbeing and our personal productivity. Dr. Bassam Khoury is an Associate Professor in the Department of Educational & Counselling Psychology at McGill University, and he heads the McGill Mindfulness Research Lab, where he and his team conduct research to advance the theory, research, and applications of mindfulness and compassion. Dr. Bassam Khoury has published numerous papers on mindfulness and compassion in leading journals in the fields of clinical psychology and physical and medical health. His work includes 77 journal articles and 9 book chapters - he has gained international recognition and has been cited over 8,500 times. Dr. Bassam Khoury has also been recognized with multiple awards, including the Association of Psychological Science Emerging Scholars Rising Stars Award and the William Dawson Scholars Award. In this episode, Dr. Bassam Khoury stresses the importance of setting intentions for a mindfulness practise, and asking yourself what you want to get out of it. Is it to improve yourself, your stress, your relationships, or perhaps your interactions with others? Together, Sarah and Dr. Bassam Khoury discuss how meditation practices should focus on the body, not just on the mind. While observing your thoughts is important, so is connecting with your environment. Dr. Bassam Khoury’s own research also touches on compassion towards others, such as building compassion towards animals.

The complex topic of psychological flexibility may seem daunting, but in this episode, a focus on self-compassion helps to guide us through how psychological flexibility can lead us toward a more fulfilling life. Joining us to share her expert knowledge is Dr. Miriam Liss, professor and chair of the department of psychological science at the University of Mary Washington (UMW), and is a member of UMW’s interdisciplinary women, gender, and sexuality studies program. She is a clinical psychologist and received her Ph.D. from the University of Connecticut in 2001. Among her long list of accolades are over 60 articles on an extensive range of topics, as well as co-authoring Psychology of Women and Gender published by Norton, currently in its second edition, and Balancing the Big Stuff: Finding Happiness in Work, Family, and Life published by Rowman and Littlefield. Dr. Miriam Liss shares metaphors that can help us better understand the role our own thoughts play in our lives, and centers self-compassion as different to self esteem, encouraging speaking to oneself as one would a friend. She also shares her groundbreaking research on the gendered world of mental load. Together, Sarah and Dr. Miriam Liss frequent the phrase ‘do it scared’, which has circulated online, and how this pertains to the idea of standing above the unhelpful thoughts, and not letting them control your actions. This enlightening episode is perfect for those who love metaphors, gender studies, and learning about the complex world of the brain.
