“The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen.  Just listen.  Perhaps the most important thing we ever give  each other is our attention.”   Rachel Naomi Remen

This workshop is experiential. You will learn how to listen by processing information in a cooperative setting, using both large and small groups. 

This workshop will help you:
