listening and speaking are the places where we can most clearly observe our own psychological processes, be they thought- or feeling-based. in this program we look at the different levels of listening and deepening our capacity to listen.

we now explore levels of speaking and get a glimpse of the differences between them. this enables us to bring attention into our own speech and listening patterns and grow our ability to communicate.

working with our listening and speaking can easily feel overwhelming. it is then helpful to have some structure for your practice. this program gives one possible structure for focusing on communication.

in this program we dig a little deeper into listening by looking into a well-researched form of listening and techniques which may support us in listening.

we have looked at deepening listening beyond atuonomous "downloading", through listening factually (with an open mind), and then empathetically (with an open heart). in this program we learn how to deepen our level of listening even further, to make room for the emergent beyond "you and i".

we all face having difficult conversations sometimes and this program gives guidelines on having them. we look at the principles of connective conversation and inquiry. we learn how to mindfully give and receive feedback and have couragious conversations, about radical candor, and true apology.
