<p>Listening is a vital skill we cultivate every day, whether in a classroom, during a meeting or conversing with others. We also listen to our thoughts and emotions that arise in our mind, the sounds of nature and music that surround us, or the silence that speaks deeply to us. Listening is more than simply hearing: it is a conscious act of paying attention and being present and receptive.</p> <p>This mindful meditation session focuses on listening and how meditation can achieve deeper and more open states of listening — to ourselves, to one another and to the greater world around us. </p> <div dir="ltr">Facilitated by Justin Burkett, MN, RN, CHSE, leadership and meditation facilitator and assistant professor in the Faculty of Nursing at the University of Calgary</div> <p>Presented by UCalgary’s <a href= "http://www.ucalgary.ca/mentalhealth" data-cke-saved-href= "http://www.ucalgary.ca/mentalhealth">Campus Mental Health Strategy</a></p>
