Your 'Caring' Might Just Be Carrying | Dr. Tony Nader • 467

Why does caring feel so exhausting right now?

Tony Nader breaks down why so much of what drains us was never actually caring, it was carrying someone else’s pain, outcome, or opinion as if it were our own. This conversation goes beyond compassion fatigue advice into the actual mechanism your nervous system uses to confuse a stranger’s problem with your own life. Nader also walks through a real-time way to tell, in the moment, which one you’re actually doing.

What you’ll learn:

• Why caring and carrying feel the same but aren’t

• Your nervous system can’t tell news from your life

• The 10-second test that reveals when you’re carrying

Tony Nader is a Harvard and MIT-trained physician and the successor to Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, leading Transcendental Meditation organizations worldwide. His empirical research on the nervous system has been published widely, and his new book, The Power of Caring, applies decades of that research to a simple question: why sustainable caring depends on regulation, not willpower.
