As an increasing amount of attention is given to the role of mindfulness practices in improving interpersonal relationships and overall well-being, the newly released guide from Mindfulness Etc. focuses on the way that active listening exercises can function as a useful daily tool for enhancing relationships at home or in the workplace.

A recent report from Business Insider highlights some of the current research surrounding mindful listening - also sometimes called active listening - noting that this type of communication can have a dramatically positive effect on interpersonal relationships, as it allows both participants in a conversation to feel as though they are being heard and understood. The guide from Mindfulness Etc. helps individuals who are interested in increasing mindfulness levels incorporate daily practices into their lives. “The ability to listen mindfully enhances relationships by improving how we communicate with each other,” the author says. “Mindful listeners can focus on what someone else is saying without being distracted by their own agenda or biases.”

The guide lists several basic mindful listening techniques, such as asking open-ended questions, repeating back words or phrases used by a conversation partner, and eliminating common distractions, such as cell phones or obstructive body language.

Readers will find tips for how to increase their levels of presence and attention when having difficult conversations - they are advised to take periodic breaks, avoid interrupting, ask questions that express an interest in the other person’s point of view, summarize, and provide reflective feedback.

Methods for focusing on the emotions behind people’s words - rather than taking words literally at face value - are also described, such as being sensitive to changes in tone and inflection while also working to build stronger empathy skills.

In addition, the guide offers practical steps for mindful listening, such as finding a comfortable space and physical posture, noticing body language cues, and setting an intention of understanding, rather than reacting or responding.
