Fablefy – The Whole Child
Mindful Listening is a an effective tool to help build concentration and focus especially, in the classroom.
We practice the HEAR in this Mindful Listening by bringing into awareness a non judgemental object.
HALT — Halt whatever you are doing and offer your full attention.
ENJOY — Enjoy a breath as you choose to receive whatever is being communicated to you—wanted or unwanted.
ASK — Ask yourself if you really know what they mean and if you don’t, ask for clarification. Instead of making assumptions, bring openness and curiosity to the interaction. You might be surprised at what you discover.
REFLECT — Reflect back to them what you heard. This tells them that you were really listening.
