Unless we are able to listen to ourselves mindfully, there's little chance of being able to listen well to others. Listening well to others enables us to understand the bigger picture and make informed and intelligent decisions for ourselves, our families, our teams and our organizations. During this webinar, we explore the concepts of listening, mental models and internal story-telling.

Listening is a first step in a much longer and more complex healing process. This blog is part one of a two part blog series on listening, designed to make learning to listen simple.

We start by listening to our own stories, so that we can set them aside more easily in order to consider other "sides of the beach ball."

Listening to ourselves involves being present with ourselves and more aware of our needs, feelings, judgments, mental models and stories.
