To
converse
means to talk with other people.
Conversations are the best way to connect. People talk
about interesting things. They share ideas. They share
feelings. They share thoughts. This sharing makes us feel
connected.
Mindful conversing means being present during
conversations. Give the speaker all of your attention.
Be a good listener. Be a good friend.
Put away your devices. Don’t text while someone is
talking. This is rude. It means you’re not in the present
moment. You’re somewhere else. Give your attention to
the speaker.
