The Art of Listening – Sitting in a Deeper State of Consciousness
Dr. Mark Howard is offering a new two-session program as part of the practitioner program on the art of listening. This program is focused on helping you as practitioners deepen your understanding of the listening process.
Mark says about the program:
Listening is a state of Consciousness that we sit in when we are sharing this understanding with our clients.
As a state of Consciousness, we are free of any personal thinking. So, it is a sense of being beyond yourself. We are free of opinions, judgments, and assumptions.
Opinions could be something like “this client doesn’t understand,’ judgments could be like “This client is challenging”, and assumptions could involve our thinking that we need to share the principles now.
In this program I would like to help our practitioners understand the logic of Listening. When we are deeply listening, our coaching is guided by the Intelligence of Mind. Since both the client and the practitioner are Mind then the intelligence is at work guiding the partitioner and the client. Listening allows the practitioner to hear the guidance from Mind.
When I am sitting with a client in this state of listening, I find myself becoming curious or wondering and at times puzzled by how the client presents their thinking. Following that curiosity leads me to a teachable moment. I see what is needed to share, or I could say that the teaching arrives in my mind rather than me assuming what I need to teach.
This program consists of two sessions:
The first meeting will present the listening logic.
The second meeting will follow up with questions and a demonstration.
Dates: December 6th and 13th at 2-3:30 PM EST
