Welcome to My Research Hub
As an associate professor of psychology at St. Joseph’s University in Brooklyn, New York, I am excited to share my research in self-compassion, veganism, and compassion for animals through this blog. My goal is to facilitate meaningful conversations around these important topics and provide resources for those interested in learning more.
Understanding Self-Compassion
Self-compassion plays a fundamental role in our emotional and mental well-being. It involves treating ourselves with kindness and understanding, particularly during difficult times. By fostering self-compassion, we can improve our resilience, promote positive mental health, and cultivate a deeper sense of connection to ourselves and others.
The Intersection of Veganism and Compassion for Animals
Veganism is not just a dietary choice; it reflects a profound commitment to compassion for animals. By choosing to live a vegan lifestyle, individuals can reduce their impact on animal suffering and contribute to a more ethical world. This blog will delve into how self-compassion can encourage more mindful eating practices and foster a sense of empathy towards animals. Furthermore, I will share my findings from various conferences and connect to my papers, enhancing our collective understanding of these interconnected subjects.
Through this platform, I invite readers to join me on this journey of exploration, learning, and discussion. Together, we can make strides in understanding the positive effects of self-compassion, veganism, and animal compassion in our daily lives.
