Where is your mind most of the time? How to improve your listening and focus. Have you ever been in a conversation and realised you were already thinking about what to say next? We spend much of our time physically present, but mentally elsewhere — replaying, planning, or anticipating. This affects how we work, communicate, and relate to others. In conversations, we often believe we’re listening, but instead we interrupt, offer solutions, or interpret what’s being said through our own lens. This can lead to misunderstandings and disconnection. In this interactive session, you will explore what is happening in the mind in everyday situations. Laura will guide you in discovering how mental noise and habits affect communication, and you will practice new ways to listen that can transform your interactions. Listening is a skill that can be trained. Laura Artero is a counsellor and life coach, and a mindfulness teacher. She helps people become more aware of what is happening in their minds and work with their inner critical voice, so that they can transform blocks and fears. Her approach combines mindfulness, hypnosis, and practical tools, developed in the UK and now brought to Italy.
