Send us a Text Message.Listening is a crucial aspect of effective communication and interpersonal relationships. It is important to actively listen to others without interrupting or making assumptions, in order to fully understand their perspectives and feelings. This can help to build trust and empathy, and create more meaningful connections between individuals.Healing through poetry is a powerful tool that has been used for centuries. Poetry can offer a safe space for individuals to express their emotions and experiences, and can be a means of catharsis and self-reflection. It can also provide a sense of comfort, validation, and connection to others who have had similar experiences. Through the use of metaphors, imagery, and symbolism, poetry can evoke deep emotions and allow individuals to process and heal from trauma and pain.When combined, the practice of active listening and poetry can create a transformative and healing experience for individuals. Engaging in active listening while someone shares their poetry can create a space of validation and understanding, allowing individuals to feel seen and heard. Connect with Frankie:The Good Listening ProjectConnect with Dr. Sapna Shah-Haque:InstagramFacebookTwitterLinkedInTo listen to more episodes, head to Apple Podcasts!Though I am a physician, this is not medical advice.
