Compassion Defintions

“an interpersonal process involving the noticing, feeling, sensemaking, and acting that alleviates the suffering of another person” (Dutton, Workman, Hardin, 2014)

“Compassion is an empathic understanding of a person's feelings, accompanied by altruism, or a desire to act on that person's behalf.” Psychology Today
