Some of the benefits of active listening include having healthier relationships, becoming more involved in meaningful work, and improving your personal well-being as an empathetic listener.What should you expect? ✨
- Learning about basic skills in active listening (questions, reflections, paraphrasing, validating, normalizing, etc.)
- Learning how to establish new habits when listening to others
- Discussions about empathy, non-judgement and self-compassion
