Stuck In Your Thoughts? How Wonder Can Help You Get Unstuck & Break A Rumination Cycle (mental health listening p.7) [68]

In this episode, we're exploring the sixth aspect of deep listening which is "wonder." As it relates to listening, this aspect helps us keep our curiosity and awe focused on the wellbeing of the person speaking. With this aspect, we can ask questions that help  illuminate the truth for another. Using this aspect of deep listening in conversation is surprisingly powerful; for the speaker and the listener. We'll talk about the power of this aspect and how to practice it amidst some common obstacles.
