"Listening with the Heart" Review
 |
| Carol Hwoschinsky leading Compassionate Listening workshop for Israelis and Palestinians at Hope Flowers School, May 2000 |
"Listening with the Heart: A Guidebook to Compassionate Listening" has arrived, published by The Compassionate Listening Project in April, 2001.
This guidebook provides all the information you need to form a Compassionate Listening team in your area, and to learn how to practice it in your own lives. It answers your questions of "What is it? Why do we do it? And how do we do it?" I find it also an invitation to transform our lives.
Carol Hwoschinsky, expert trainer of The Compassionate Listening Project's delegations to the Middle East, is a caring interpreter of the principles and practice of Compassionate Listening.
Carol defines the contributions she feels Compassionate Listening offers to us. She feels it creates meaning, empowers the individual, resolves conflict, heals deep wounds, contributes to a civil society and leads to forgiveness and possible reconciliation.
Her book is eloquently written, rich in practical, psychological and spiritual resources - and a guide to a new lifestyle which can benefit us -- and possibly the whole world. "Listening With the Heart" inspires hope in this time of grave troubles.
