METAPHOR OF EMPATHY What is your metaphor of empathy and why is it like that?
Open Arms

I appreciate about myself that I always get my students to a joyful and moment of laughter even if the topics are heavy.
COMMENTS
Ah, So neat that it is bullet-wise transcription, but it also brings up that that, so that is something I would like to see more of in the Mooc training.
Regarding a lesson of this interview, I do not see the plus of it (yet?), on the contrary, people may feel not need to listen to the interview.
============
have scheduled out Thursdays to dedicate to this project. If you think it is better to have a few days after the meeting then for example This Sunday would work, but next week it won't so. I am waiting for decisions from participants about dates that I teach my Empathic Communication Basics. Then I know more.
Do you have all day Thursday?
Regarding to add times to meeting in between meetings, is that the same schedule as for the panel groups? I I have to get used to the documents, so I may not see exactly what you are referring to. Then about adding to the documents. I do not see where to click so that I have access to edit.

Express a little bit about a fear you have in any area of your life?
A fear of me is not seeing my younger son because of the distance since he moved to Portland. I miss out on his life. Even though we skype, but we really have to make an appointment and it is different than having him close to me. I am afraid that it may even be a couple of years. There are more hurdles why I could not go and see him, or why he and his fiancee may not come here. To start with the last.
They just started their jobs, so they cannot schedule vacation time yet. The finances is for both of us a player. For me plays also a role that I can not leave my husband alone (he is 85 and start forgetting things) and he does not want to go anywhere anymore (traveled a lot in his life) Another element is that I dislike going by airplane. All the hassle of the scanning etc.
How do you think reflective listening compares to our everyday conversation?
Focus is the thing for me.. Shifting focusing from yourself to others and back again.
In everyday conversation I let it go. I use you messages..
I’m happy EL is a skill with me.
For example. I started defending
Course Experience: How was the experience of doing this Listening Well course?
I Like
Going through the book of Miller worked fabulous for me as I could see sharply where my training differs from his and I loved several exercises that I would like to start using.
I loved the group and the dedication of everybody to show up
I thought the practice of reflective listening straight away was a breakthrough to see how quickly people could be helped with this skill in their differences.
I loved Edwin as taking the leadership over the course, guiding us through the sessions, so I think that is one of the great things to have a facilitator.
I Wish...
What I missed was probably some ‘lose’ discussion time
What if..
How I would like to continue is to show the group the 6 lesson proposal that I created to see if this is something concrete as a basic training in listening; Getting comments adjustments, additions etc.Make the videos with the group where I think a video would be great, and then facilitate the course with new groups to see how it works.
