“Most people listen to conversations -just to reply, not to understand.”
When I retrained as a resilience coach the first lesson was on ‘active listening.’ 👂
This is a communication technique where you give complete attention to the person speaking, then you remember the whole conversation to give a thoughtful response.
In my late fifties I found the exercise exhausting. It required complete focus with no interruptions…..but I wished I had learnt the listening skill earlier in my life! 😳
Join my 1-day CPD Well-being Group Champions Course where you will learn to respond well to those in need of an ‘listening ear.’
📄After completion of the course, a CPD certificate will be issued.
