How to give your partner your full attention?
In a relationship, listening to understand the perspectives of the partner rather than responding or reacting is extremely important. Listening helps us to delve deeper into the issues at hand and think, contemplate and figure out solutions. "Listening is one of the most important skills in any healthy relationship, yet it’s one so many of us struggle with. When was the last time you gave your partner your full, undivided attention without distractions or judgment? If you’re like most people, it’s probably been a while. The good news is effective listening is a skill you can strengthen. With some practice and effort, you can become a better listener, deepen your connection, and improve satisfaction in your relationship," wrote Therapist Benjamin Ekorhi.
