The Art of Listening

By Michele Diaz, Shanti staff

When was the last time you actually listened to a loved one or friend? When is the last time you really felt heard? After a weekend of a volunteer training for Shanti, a non profit organization that provides peer counseling for individuals with life threatening illnesses, my eyes (and ears) were opened; I learned the art of listening.
