Active Listening offers us a way to feel better right now – without anything illegal, immoral or fattening. Neuroscience studies using brain imaging suggest that talking about personal experiences is associated with patterns of neural activity linked to positive emotional experience and social connection.

And research across psychology and neuroscience further suggests that sustained positive emotional experiences are associated with greater well-being, improved coping, and increased resilience over time. Studies indicate that environments characterized by empathy, understanding, and attentive listening can support emotional regulation, adaptability, and a greater capacity to navigate stress and everyday challenges. Rather than acting as a treatment, these experiences appear to contribute to conditions that support overall well-being and human functioning.

Something good is happening here — come join us as we help each other create our best lives.
