Meditative Inquiry
by Michael and Alexander
I'm glad you decided to check this out. Join us in exploring what it means to truly listen. When you're listening to a friend or someone with different opinions, when you're listening for a solution to a stubborn problem, there is something that remains. It is a state of consciousness. A radical openness to what you could not expect. How can we wholeheartedly hear the innovations and insights being whispered to us in any given situation? Tune in.
