And today, in our seven good minutes extra segment, our thought for today is mindful listening is not just about hearing words, but about feeling the emotions behind them. This quote sheds light on the deeper level of communication that mindful listening allows us to access. True listening goes beyond merely processing the words being spoken. It involves tuning into the emotions, intentions, and underlying messages that come with them. When we practice mindful
listening, we engage with the speaker fully, offering our undivided attention and empathy. In our fast paced world, it's easy to fall into the habit of hearing without truly listening. We might catch the gist of a conversation, but miss the emotional depth that gives it meaning. Mindful listening invites us to slow down and connect more deeply with others, fostering understanding, trust, and stronger relationships. By being present and attentive, we not only hear the words, but also sense the emotions behind them, allowing us to respond with greater compassion and insight. To practice mindful listening in your daily life, start by focusing fully on the person speaking, setting aside distractions and judgments. Pay attention not only to their words, but also to their tone, body language, and emotions. This approach will help you build deeper connections and offer more meaningful support to those around you. Here's a question to reflect on today. How can you practice mindful listening to better understand the emotions behind the words
you hear? Let this thought guide you to become a more attentive and empathetic listener. Today's positive affirmation is, I listen mindfully, connecting with the emotions behind the words and deepening my relationships. Remember, mindful listening is a powerful tool for building stronger, more empathetic connections with others. It's about hearing more than just the words. It's about truly understanding the person speaking. Until next time, I'm Clyde Lee Dennis, and this has been Seven Good Minutes Extra. Our Weight at the DMV seems like 10 Minutes.

I like things my way, my coffee, my schedule, and my treatment. So I talk to my doctor about self-injecting with the VivGuard-Hitrulo pre-filled syringe, which contains F-Guard-Tigamon Alpha and Hyleronadase QVFC. It's injected under your skin, subcutaneously. It means I can inject in my space, on my time. It's my treatment, my way. Visit VivGuardMyway.com. That's v-y-v-g-a-r-t-myway.com, and talk to your doctor about VivGuard-Hitrulo, brought to you by Argenics. Here's the truth. You could literally be adored by everyone, and then come home and still get completely ignored by your own cat. It's classic cat behavior. But new Shiba Premium Pure A is a lickable treat that changes all that. Their protein rich, made with bone broth and have the smooth creamy texture cats go crazy for, especially when it's hand-fed. Yeah, it's more than a treat. It's a fast-passed, a favorite human status. So feed your cat Shiba, and go from totally ignored to truly adored in just 12 days, guaranteed, or your money back.
