Good listening skills transform relationships, confidence, self-awareness and happiness. Whether that’s having a conversation with a work colleague, family member, stranger, business client, friend or child. You will find that good leaders are also very good listeners. Listening is a key skill to have, yet many people place scant regard to it and fail to listen in a way that connects with people and ‘get’ what they are saying. We also do the same to them too!

If you would like to transform your listening skill’s, then come and join this introduction to the ‘Art of Listening’. It is for anyone who wants to improve their ability to interact and communicate both personally and professionally. It will help you on the road to becoming a natural communicator, one that transcends judgement to be fully present with people. During the day you will look at the psychology of listening and explore what it is to be listened to, to be heard, and what happens when we’re not, both psychologically and energetically. The event will provide insight and tools to improve your skills and explore how you connect with others through your intuition.

One of the greatest gifts you can give to others, and to yourself, is to listen, truly listen!

The ‘art of listening’ is something that anyone can develop and master as we ‘let go’ of old limiting mindsets. There are many layers of listening from feigned interest to a deep connection. We intuitively know when we are not being listened too, we feel it and often, visually we can see it. Few really get heard but when we do it’s a beautiful experience - we feel acknowledged and a connection with the person. Mastering the art of listening enables you to hear what is really being expressed by the other person - the true meaning and energy of their words. At this level your ability to hear and acknowledge someone can be transforming and in some cases, life changing!

The day is fun and experiential with a mix of information, activity and social interaction. You will work in very small groups exploring and experiencing aspects of listening and speaking. This will give you an awareness of how you interact and connect whilst in a conversation, the behaviours between you and the psychological and energetic responses that happen.

Bring your natural curiosity and willingness to learn and explore. Also, a pen and pad.

Limited places, we like it cosy so don’t miss out!
