Deep listening

Maybe a better question to ask is ‘what was the emotion we have felt when someone deeply listened to us?’. Good listeners are hard to find, but they are out there.


It feels good to be heard. It helps us feel understood, validated, affirmed, valued, connected emotionally, and perhaps relieved from an underlying pain.


Deep listening is a precious gift we can give and get.
