Podcasts about compassionate listening

What if your workout had nothing to do with the number on the scale—and everything to do with what your body can do? This week we're joined by Mark Breedon, an online personal trainer who helps women build lasting confidence by getting stronger than they ever imagined. His weight-neutral philosophy shifts the focus away from aesthetics and toward strength, health, and independence because life-changing results aren't just about how you look, they're about what you can do. Mark shares how he went from chasing bigger biceps to falling in love with powerlifting, and how that transformation led him to create a coaching approach free from weigh-ins, before-and-after photos, and body measurements.  In this episode: How training for strength can be more fulfilling and sustainable than training for weight loss Real-life examples of clients discovering their strength (yes, even in their 70s and 80s!) Why women often thrive in a strength-based program The biggest mistakes the fitness industry makes about motivation and “discipline” How to set non-aesthetic goals that keep you excited to train Connect with Mark: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/training.strong.women/ The Badass Lifter Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/badass-lifter-podcast/id1490017694 Register for Maria's online workshop on Compassionate Listening on August 27th! https://maria-winters.mykajabi.com/upcoming-workshops Connect with us!    The Ultimate Self Care Planner: https://elizabethharrisnutrition.ck.page/9e817ab37e   Elizabeth Harris, MS, RDN, LDN FB: Health and Healing with Intuitive Eating community https://www.facebook.com/groups/healthandhealingwithintuitiveeating Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ElizabethHarrisNutrition Free download to break up with diet culture: https://elizabethharrisnutrition.com/invisible-diet   Tara De Leon, Master Personal Trainer Email: FitnessTrainer19@hotmail.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tara_de_leon_fitness Join Tara's Newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/5290e3f13e08/email-signup Maria Winters, LCPC, NCC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coaching_therapist/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/MWcoachingtherapy Website: www.thecoachingtherapist.com

Dr. T and Truth Fairy welcome guest Gil Bar-Sela to the podcast to talk about his work as a psychedelic guide, facilitator, and trainer working with individuals, couples, and groups. Gil weaves modalities like generative somatics, compassionate listening, and archetypal work into the more ancient medicine ceremonies. Gil shares his personal journey with Dr. T and Truth Fairy and engages in thoughtful discussions about psychedelics and healing. Gil shares that when he moved to the United States after being raised in Tel Aviv, Israel, he had his first opportunity to deal with the trauma lodged in his body. That led him to ask questions about conflict, the root causes of conflict, trauma, and intergenerational trauma which put him on track to explore all those issues. He also began his own personal healing process around his queer identity. This experience and questioning led him to the studies and practices he engages in today.  Truth Fairy, Gil, and Dr. T talk about how self-awareness is what first leads to healing work. Having a sense of what we need can lead us to the right kind of work to be doing. Gil talks about the building blocks necessary to become a good guide which include ethics, pharmacology, and onboarding clients in a responsible way. The conversation highlights Gil's own strong sense of guidance and understanding of the different types of medicine available for healing individuals which also includes psychedelics.“You have the psychiatrist, you have the psychotherapist moving into the space that are very rooted in the Western psyche, but are also lacking usually in terms of connection to spirit, to more expansive practices, to ancient wisdom. And so I think, in particular, the role of the underground guide can be to merge the two worlds. Because we're not here and we're not there. We can be bridge builders. The training that I lead is very much focused on that.” - Gil Bar-Sela__About Gil Bar-Sela:Gil has trained teams and businesses to invoke a thriving work culture. He has inspired audiences of thousands by speaking at colleges across the country on topics such as the power of listening and gender equality. He has collaborated with the leadership team of Seattle's Restorative Justice Initiative, creating community-based, non-punitive solutions to conflict. He co-leads annual delegations to Palestine and Israel with The Compassionate Listening Project, an organization dedicated to empowering individuals and communities to transform conflict and strengthen cultures of peace. He also coaches privately, and leads workshops and retreats globally.Gil is a Certified Trainer with the Heart Math Institute and a Certified Facilitator with The Compassionate Listening Project. He has also trained at Susan Scott's Fierce Conversations, Dominic Barter's Restorative Circles, Core Energetics, META (Mindful Experiential Therapy Approaches), Cortiva's 1,000-hour massage therapy program, and shamanism.Website: GilBarSela.com__Contact Punk Therapy:Patreon: Patreon.com/PunkTherapyWebsite: PunkTherapy.comEmail: info@punktherapy.com

In this episode of Fishing Without Bait, host Jim Ellermeyer engages in a profound conversation with Bronwyn Schweigerdt, a psychotherapist and anger expert. Bronwyn delves into the impact of generational trauma and the importance of breaking cycles of shame. She shares transformative techniques for forgiveness, explaining the role of self-reflection and externalizing emotions in healing. The discussion extends to the philosophy of forgiveness, viewing it as a personal liberation rather than exoneration of others. Bronwyn also explores managing triggers, cultivating compassionate listening, and the necessity of boundaries for emotional well-being. She recounts her personal journey overcoming depression and insomnia, attributing her recovery to addressing unresolved emotions and setting firm boundaries. Additionally, she highlights her evolution from a career in nutrition to psychotherapy, emphasizing the interconnectedness of diet, self-worth, and mental health.Are you finding benefit from this show?  We appreciate any support with our Patreon page!  Pledge as little as $1 a month for extra clips, behind the scenes and more at www.patreon.com/fishingwithoutbait !

If you like, please subscribe for more!   The Art of Compassionate Listening Cultivating Understanding and Empathy   In our fast-paced, technology-driven world, the art of truly listening has become a rare commodity. We are often so consumed by our own thoughts, distractions, and the need to respond quickly that we fail to fully engage in the act of listening. However, compassionate listening is a powerful tool that can foster deeper understanding, empathy, and meaningful connections with others.   What is Compassionate Listening? Compassionate listening goes beyond simply hearing the words someone is saying. It involves actively and intentionally listening with an open mind and heart, free from judgment or the need to formulate a response. It requires us to be fully present, attentive, and focused on the speaker, allowing their words, emotions, and experiences to resonate within us.   When we practice compassionate listening, we create a safe space for others to express themselves freely, without fear of being interrupted, criticized, or dismissed. This act of genuine presence and acceptance can be profoundly healing and validating for the speaker, fostering a sense of being truly heard and understood.   The Benefits of Compassionate Listening Cultivating the art of compassionate listening can have far-reaching benefits for both the listener and the speaker:   1. Deeper Connections: By actively listening with empathy and understanding, we create stronger, more meaningful connections with others. This can improve personal and professional relationships, fostering trust and mutual respect.   2. Increased Self-Awareness: When we listen compassionately, we become more attuned to our own thoughts, feelings, and biases. This self-awareness can lead to personal growth and a greater capacity for self-reflection.   3. Conflict Resolution: Compassionate listening can help diffuse tense situations and resolve conflicts by creating an environment of mutual understanding and respect. It allows both parties to feel heard and validated, paving the way for constructive dialogue and compromise.   4. Improved Communication: By actively listening and seeking to understand others, we enhance our communication skills and become better communicators ourselves. This can lead to more effective collaboration, problem-solving, and decision-making.   Cultivating the Art of Compassionate Listening Developing the skill of compassionate listening takes practice and intentionality. Here are some tips to help you cultivate this invaluable art:   1. Be Present: Eliminate distractions and give the speaker your undivided attention. Maintain eye contact, nod, and use affirmative body language to show you are engaged.   2. Suspend Judgment: Approach the conversation with an open mind and heart. Resist the urge to formulate a response or counterargument while the other person is speaking.   3. Ask Clarifying Questions: If you're unsure about something, ask respectful questions to gain a deeper understanding of the speaker's perspective.   4. Reflect and Validate: Periodically summarize or rephrase what the speaker has said to ensure you've understood correctly and to validate their experience.   5. Practice Empathy: Strive to understand the speaker's emotions, motivations, and experiences, even if they differ from your own. Imagine yourself in their shoes.   Compassionate listening is a powerful act of kindness and respect. By cultivating this art, we create a more understanding, empathetic, and connected world, one conversation at a time. Embrace the power of truly listening, and watch as barriers dissolve and meaningful connections flourish.

In this SAFE SPACE episode we're going to find out what it's like to live with a diagnosis of Schizophrenia so we can understand it better and help reduce some of the stigma surrounding this mental wellbeing issue. Jess sits down with 45-year-old Phoebe Kingston who has a lived experience of mental distress including a diagnosis of Schizophrenia, Schizoaffective Disorder, and more recently, Dissociative Identity Disorder.  Phoebe openly shares the stigma and discrimination they've faced, which can often be more distressing than the symptoms of the illness itself. You'll hear first hand what it's like to experience an acute, psychotic and delusional paranoid episode. There is so much we can learn from Phoebe including the importance of compassionate listening and human connection, while debunking some common myths and misconceptions surrounding Schizophrenia. Phoebe works in several roles across the mental health sector, and is a lived experience peer ambassador for SANE Australia. Phoebe has a special interest area in advocacy for alternative understandings of mental & emotional distress. So in this conversation you'll hear Phoebe use non clinical language from a carefully chosen framework of understanding and self-identity. Everyone's personal lived experience story is unique, and Phoebe is termed a ‘critical democratic peer worker' for their overarching perspectives on mental well being.

Effective communications can make or break a relationship. This doesn't always mean effectively proving our points or being right or even perfect. I'm talking about listening with an open compassionate heart and a desire to mend your relationships. This authentically deepens the heart connection. It's more than a band-aid, it heals core wounds. If we truly care about our connection with someone, truly listening, as my teacher used to say, "with the ear of your heart" is most healing for both of you. This is our topic of this week's Meditation & Healing Circle. Listen in to release your defenses, center yourself, and communicate with an open heart to truly mend the relationships that are most important to you.You're invited to join us LIVE for The Meditation & Healing Circle - every Sunday at 10am US ET / 7am US PT. When you join live, you can stay on after the recorded meditation for Q&A, support and discussion. https://CommunityforConsciousLiving.com

In this enlightening episode, our host, Grace, invites four time, best-selling author and world-renowned storyteller Kelly Corrigan to a heartfelt conversation exploring the impact of authentic communication and emotional honesty.  Kelly stresses the crucial role of active listening and genuine presence, sharing a personal anecdote of a powerful conversation with her daughter amidst the pandemic. The discussion delves into the fear of judgment when expressing feelings and the honor in being trusted to hold space for another's emotions.  Grace and Kelly connect on the influence of culture on self-worth and the tendency to compare oneself to others. They discuss the empowering act of defining your own value and the transformative potential of storytelling and literature in enhancing one's ability to connect and communicate effectively.  They share the challenges of balancing multiple roles as leaders, mothers, truth-seekers, and partners, discuss their beliefs around the innate creativity within everyone, and the importance of taking incremental (seemingly tiny, but impactful) actions toward one's goals and aspirations.  Tune in and join Grace and Kelly as they encourage listeners to embrace vulnerability and reflect on the empowering process of growth that can emerge from life's darkest moments.   //   https://www.thehivery.com/podcast Subscribe to The Hivery Newsletter: https://www.thehivery.com/newsletter-subscription Follow The Hivery on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehivery/

At this week's Round Table, Emily, Emmanuel, and Heba spoke with Joel Berman, a retired primary care physician who lives in Concord, NH and is a longtime volunteer from The Compassionate Listening Project–something we could all benefit from doing more of these days, which made us excited to engage in this conversation! The Compassionate Listening Project works to empower individuals and communities to transform conflict and create cultures of peace and healing. It accomplishes this through workshops, facilitator training, listening journeys, and partnerships with humanitarian, social justice, and peace-building groups.Compassionate Listening offerings cultivate practices that hold courageous and generative space to bring people together across differences. We discussed complex and timely questions like “What does it mean to truly create safe & courageous space and what are the best ways to do so and to unleash creativity?” We dove into the power of storytelling as well as the importance of peer support in working to rewire our brains away from tribalism, which is incredibly hard! We acknowledged the intense practice it takes to master it, the degree to which we will sometimes fail--and learn from failing, and the need to be compassionate with ourselves when we do. We also discussed the value of having a compassionate listening practice group to do this work with regularly-a laboratory within which to take risks and receive honest feedback. Joel founded and has been part of one for over a decade! At a time of such deep divisiveness in Israel-Gaza–and such deep divisiveness in thinking and talking about the issues globally–we were inspired to hear about Joel's four Compassionate Listening Journeys to Israel and Palestine between 2015 and 2019, as well as his Journey to Alabama in January 2020. During these trips, he recorded and transcribed more than 40 listening sessions that form the basis for public presentations designed to humanize the “other” and help local audiences recognize our common humanity and shared values of people across geo-political divides. We sure need approaches like this right now and are grateful to Joel and the Compassionate Learning Project for their valuable work. f you're interested in hearing more from Joel Berman and the work he is very passionate about, read some of his articles here: A Third Way to Think About Israel and Palestine, Journey to Alabama with The Compassionate Listening Project   Thank you for listening! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/nextgenpolitics/message

In this episode, Jenn Lozano and board member Ann Stevens explore the art of listening in an Unbound session or simply to a friend or someone in need.Ann describes three overall ways one can respond when listening to hard things shared. Responses of fear or pride may be human responses, but God will give us grace to respond in humility, extending compassion to the individual receiving prayer. Join them as Ann shares the importance of taking personal time prior to an Unbound ministry session to seek the Lord and meditate, even briefly, on a passage from Matthew 7. She reminds us about the depth and unlimited nature of God's forgiveness.There is the “small story,” and the “big story.” The small story being the details of a prayer recipient's account and the big story of God's power forgiveness and the ability to move into the bigger place of what God is doing.Ann speaks about the importance of staying present in the moment and being aware of one's own body language so the recipient feels heard.The idea of redirecting within an Unbound session is discussed, with Jenn giving an example of a time when she was leading and a recipient withdrew because they felt unheard in the moment. Listening is an art and tips are provided to be compassionate without getting stuck rehashing the hard things someone has been through. Ann shares a personal example of a time that she received compassion during a therapy session and describes how the empathy shown by the therapist helped her feel heard in the moment. The biblical account of the disciples on the road to Emmaus is explored, showing how Jesus came alongside the disciples and, after listening to their story, helped draw them out of their small story into the bigger picture of what God was doing. Ann concludes with the reminder that as we remember God's unlimited compassion and mercy for each of us personally, we can through the Holy Spirit not judge and can help a prayer recipient step into recognizing God's big story.

How to Discover the Buyer Using Compassionate Listening #499 I have a point of view on selling that may catch you off guard. Just like social work, nursing, or counseling, I see selling as a helping profession.  The way I see it, as sellers, it's our responsibility to relieve the suffering of our customers and clients. Each prospect you meet has some unfulfilled need or desire that greatly pains both them and their organizations. The way master sellers can assuage this suffering is to listen and to listen with compassion. Instead of guessing what's troubling them, ask and they will tell you what it is they want and they need. Too often sellers are quick to jump the gun and talk about their stuff when it would make more sense to shut up and let them talk.  How to discover the buyer with compassionate listening. That's the topic for today. Sales Babble shares selling secrets for non-sellers.  Masterful selling is understanding what buyers want, discerning if you can help,  showing what you have and helping them to make a decision that is good for their business and yours. See https://salesbabble.com I've interviewed 100s of sales experts and discuss all things sales: prospecting, qualifying, value propositions, presentations, demos, closing, generating referrals, earning references, upselling, marketing, lead generation, copywriting, and most important the right selling mindset. Stop fearing sales and embrace it. This is a production of Habanero Media https://habaneromedia.net

Today on the Leadership Tales Podcast, we've got a double header! Tom Kaden and Michael Gingerich are the co-founders of Someone To Tell It To, a non-profit organization they created to help others cultivate meaningful relationships through compassionate listening, training, and education. They support so many people who are going through trauma and difficult times. Their style is to listen in pairs which I find fascinating. Overall I love their listening-focused mission and their goal of addressing loneliness to be deeply inspiring. It's evident from hearing testimonials that Tom and Michael's approach is deeply impactful. Really listening to people has the power to make all the difference in their lives, and they illustrate this well with a true story that made me emotional hearing it. There's huge value to be gained from listening to this episode. If you want to learn how to really make someone feel heard, you're going to want to tune in and hear how Tom and Michael approach listening.

I'm excited to be celebrating 100 episodes of Co-creating Peace! I am so grateful to all you loyal listeners & patrons for the continued success of this podcast. Many of you have reached out to me with feedback & ideas for topics; some have requested advice, communication coaching, or other services. It's been so great to connect with all of you! I look forward to our continued connection & to being of service through this podcast and my other work. Welcome to "From Drama Triangle to Circle of Empowerment"  Episode #100 of Co-creating Peace.I'm delighted to have Susan Partnow join me again. While discussing Compassionate Listening in Episodes #95 & #96, Susan briefly referenced the drama triangle. Then, in Episode #97, Fleet Maull mentioned the drama triangle as well. I realized that this is a phenomenon that is so often present in conflict dynamics and so often the cause of conflict, that I need to have an episode of this podcast that focuses on the Drama Triangle so we can learn more about it and how to work constructively with our tendency to engage at that level. Susan Partnow is well-versed on the drama triangle and how to transform it into a circle of empowerment, so I invited her to return to share more of her wisdom with us.Highlights of our conversation include:The 3 roles in the drama triangle and how they interact (We all step into one of these roles from time to time.)How to bring mindfulness to the role we've assumed in the drama triangleHow to move from the drama triangle into the circle of empowermentHow to invite others to join us in moving from the drama triangle into the circle of empowermentSusan's 5-session “Intro to Compassionate Listening” class, which includes working with the Drama Triangle, begins Jan. 12th.

Most people break communication down into two activities—speaking and listening. But how you do each can make all the difference in your marriage. And guess what? Very few of us actually learn how to do either effectively. What generally happens is you listen to respond. Which means you aren't listening deeply, and this is how […] The post Listening is Good, Compassionate Listening is Better appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Wyn & Kate explore compassion, for ourselves and for others.  They dive under the noise to see what's possible when we listen for understanding, and from that space, our need to defend and fix fall away.  And what's left is connection and compassion.   If you have any questions or comments for Wyn or Kate, please email us! Also, if you have a topic or question that you would like us to chat about, please reach out!  We'd love to hear it! wyn@wynning.co.uk kate@katerobertscoaching.com

In today's episode, Matt and Fr. Boniface Hicks, OSB will be discussing Unbound Ministry and the Sacrament of Confession. How do these two powerful ministries fit together? This episode will be of great interest to Catholic priests, or any Catholic, and really anyone at all who's interested in conversion.Fr. Boniface Hicks is a Benedictine monk of Saint Vincent Archabbey and a Catholic priest. He's also the Director of Spiritual Formation and leads the Institute of Spiritual Formation at St. Vincent Seminary. He's co-authored two books, Spiritual Direction: A Guide for Sharing the Father's Love and Personal Prayer: A Guide for Receiving the Father's Love.A tremendous brother in Christ, he's a student of the human heart. He is both fascinated and drawn to the ways in which God's presence brings us healing in our hearts.  A glimpse at some of his wisdom from this powerful interview:When we recognize the infinite dignity and the mystery of the person, when we make room in our own hearts and allow ourselves to weep with those who weep and to rejoice with those who rejoice, as Saint Paul says, when I make room in my heart to be moved- then when I find ways to express that ... just these little expressions of our presence to the person really helps them to receive... all of that provides the kind of framework in which a lot of healing can take place.(Unbound Ministry) is such a beautiful opportunity to reverence the person, to hold them in their vulnerability, and hold them as the Father does, and then help them to see this is how they are eternally loved. This is the eternal love from which they were made.

I'm so excited to share this next episode of Elevate Your Vida, it is such an honor to feature Gabriela Blanco from Healing Parents. Gabriela shares her own story of motherhood, navigating new emotions that unlocked a new essence within her, and she expands on the concept that is Conscious Parenting.
