The power of being present

The power of being present

There is so much power in being present in a conversation with someone. It can be difficult to allow others to speak freely without interjecting into the dialogue personal accounts, "one ups", or comparisons. We may often find it difficult to not try to "fix" other people and their problems as they present them to us. Most of the time, when people share their experiences, problems and stories with us, they want to be heard instead of judged and nothing more. In fact, when the narrative is a huge life event or problem, people almost never expect that the person listening has some magical ability to fix the problem, yet we may feel compelled to try anyway. Todays episode challenges all of us to engage in active listening while being mindful of our own tendencies to overshare, one-up and "fix" unimaginable problems. Holding space, being present without judgment, is sometimes, the best medicine there is.
