Mindful Listening at Work

Does your focus fade away during meetings? Do you wish you could pay better attention in your conversations with colleagues? Your ability to pay attention to others and what they verbally share is not only respectful - it is key to your success. Build your mindful listening skills with this audio-only course led by Dr. Cortland Dahl, a research scientist, meditation teacher, and Chief Contemplative Officer at HMI who spent eight years translating Tibetan Buddhist texts before getting his Ph.D. in neuroscience. First, you will tune into your mind and body in the present moment. Next, you will mentally take in sounds as they occur - not just the recorded audio but all that you hear around you. Finally, with renewed awareness, you will set an intention to use mindful listening in everyday work meetings and conversations. After this course, you will be ready to use mindfulness to be fully present in the workplace.
