Words. Journey into emotions: empathy.
In the last 4 meetings we have talked about emotions such as fear, anger, sadness, happiness ... These emotions not only feel within us, but we recognize them in others.
Empathy is a social skill that drives our evolution as a human species, now also recognized by science thanks to an all-Italian discovery, that of mirror neurons. When we practice empathy we listen to the other in a profound way, almost forgetting about us, has this ever happened to you?

Are we able to enter into empathic understanding precisely for our humanity?
