Embassy of Compassion: Activity 3 - Deep Listening

Content

Deep listening is part of diving into your own stream of thoughts and understanding that flow.
﻿
Practice deep listening wherever and whenever you can. Try to shift your stream of thoughts from yourself (what do I know, what is my response) to the people you are talking to and their words, without personal reaction (without interrupting and without jumping in with solutions or answers).
﻿
Breathing exercises can greatly benefit deep listening and connecting with yourself.
﻿
Look at the materials below and reflect:
How do I listen?
Do I use any exercises (for active listening, breathing exercises)?
How can deep listening help me to strengthen relationships in practice?
