Perhaps the most significant thing we can do to improve our relationships is to be more present in our conversations. But how do we train ourselves to lead with presence, especially when the exchange is difficult?
In this episode, we hear from author and mindful communications expert Oren Jay Sofer on how being present refines both our listening and speaking skills. By practicing this, we learn to express the truth of our experience in ways others can hear, and we help them to do the same.
Oren Jay Sofer is a former Buddhist monk who teaches mindfulness, meditation and Nonviolent Communication in both secular and Buddhist communities. In a previous episode, he shared about the foundations of Mindful Communication.
