Our ability to speak wisely and skillfully is based on our ability to listen fully and deeply, to ourselves and others.
When we take time to look carefully at how we are speaking and listening, inwardly and outwardly, we can see how our patterns may be hindering the quality of various relationships we need and value. With mindful intention and practice, we can listen, respond, and share in new ways; and move towards clearer, calmer, more confident and authentic communication and interaction.
These practice sessions build on mindfulness foundations and are open to new students as well. Sessions consist of light training in mindfulness and meditation, interactive exercises and group discussions. Care, kindness, and confidentiality will be emphasized throughout.
