Summary of The Wisdom of Listening

The benefits of practicing true listening are very real. Refining listening skills allows an understanding not only of just what to say but also when not to say anything at all. People with good listening skills become more open, present, and responsive, and gain an internal a sense of peace. The resulting effects on romantic, family, and professional relationships are undeniable. In The Wisdom of Listening, award-winning author, teacher, and trainer Dr. Mark Brady and contributors that include Ram Dass and A.H. Almaas, instruct readers on how to develop the "listening warrior" within. Inspiring and easy to follow, the lessons here can transform the reader's interactions with others, whether in a large meeting or in a face-to-face encounter. Listening is almost a lost art: some may have forgotten how to do it; some may have never quite learned. The Wisdom of Listening gives readers the skills to overcome the Western culture's tendency towards distraction and reaction, and to be more fully in the world.
