*VIRTUAL*提供有意义的慰藉:对被误解的损失进行深度倾听

由于生活中的事件没有被我们理解为损失,所以很多悲伤没有被看到,也没有被治愈。 然后,悲伤者感到被误解,给他们造成了第二次损失--失去了他们迫切需要的支持网络,以便痊愈。 许多类型的倾听之一--深层倾听--是支持悲伤的朋友的根本,也是我们都可以学习的技能。 加入作者Dana Lacy Amarisa (慰问品袖珍指南),感谢她的善良、有见地、直截了当。 关于深度聆听的三个步骤的演讲此外,还有一个体验式的问答环节,听众希望得到关于如何深入倾听的辅导,或对开始与悲伤的朋友进行治疗性对话有疑问或意见的人。 关于作者: 阿玛丽萨女士创立了 "成为桥梁 "吊唁项目,通过鼓励和教育他们的家人、朋友和商业伙伴进行有益的吊唁,帮助缓解与那些因任何事情而悲伤的人的对话。 https://www.beabridgecondolences.com
