“Meditation is a practice that trains the mind to focus and trains the mind, body and emotions to be still and present with whatever comes up.
And it does require practice.
Just like in sitting meditation you sit with whatever comes up, when you’re listening to someone … consider it a practice, too.
Be with whomever you’re with—don’t just receive the information—fully listen to them.
Invite whatever they say to the conversation to encourage them to open up further.
Try to feel what they’re feeling, relate, and understand. This is the practice of true listening.”
-Melissa Eisler
