EMPATHY SKILLS TRAINING ~ With Tewa
2 Sessions ~ 3 Hrs Total
- Learn the art of Empathic Listening, and watch your personal and work relationships transform!
- You will receive instruction in the art of deep listening, clarifying what empathy is and what it isn't.
- Learn the distinctions between empathy and advice, consolation, interrogation, one-upmanship, and more.
- You will have the opportunity to practice and ask questions, as you receive practical tools and coaching in how to offer empathy, both to others and to yourself.
- By having a deep capacity for self-empathy, you gain the ability to 'heal' as life happens, rather than storing unresolved pain that festers and often spills over later.
- In addition, when one is able to have empathy and compassion for oneself, it becomes far easier to access these for others, even under trying situations.
- It has been shown that when a child receives empathy, they are far more likely to have compassion for themselves and for others, and this quality stays with them throughout their life.
- The more one practices, the more this essence of presence becomes the default, replacing blame and judgement, and leading to increasing connection with self and others.
- Learn to share with your family and friends how you would like to be heard when sharing your heart.

EMPATHY SESSION ~ With Tewa ~60 or 90 minutes
- Experience the amazing, liberating feeling of being deeply heard with compassion, full presence and no judgement, while speaking whatever is on your mind and in your heart in a completely confidential space.
- From this place of free and open expression, you may find great relief, deeper self-connection and clarity, as well as your own wisdom flowing more freely.
- You will be heard with an open heart, and full awareness of the tenderness of being human, most especially during these times of so much transition all around us.
- You are welcome to request advice at the end, yet frequently the experience of just being able to 'get it all off your chest' without interruption is all the medicine one needs.
- Ultimately, we recommend taking our Empathy Skills Training, described above, where you will learn to give both yourself and others empathy as needed. You can then find an empathy partner to trade sessions with.
