Appreciation, joy, gratefulness are among the RELATING domain skills of the IDGs. Deep listening circles or dyads as practiced at the IDG Summit Stockholm 2023 are supportive to explore our relation to these essential skills in challenging times. The intention is to slow down, invite silence and practice deep listening and what grateful living means to you - inspired by Br. David Steindl-Rast's letter “ The Gift of Silence ” (April 2020) and his life-long practice and teachings as a bridge builder among traditions. This series was initiated by the network Dankbar Leben as physical distancing became commonplace around the world, because we wanted to support local gratefulness practice groups and individuals interested in this form of practice. Especially, elevating emotional skills like appreciation and gratitude need a regular practice for many of us towards a more conscious way of living. Our intention is here to connect the practice meetings with different circles and networks - simply because they are universal, nurturing and connecting. All projects of cooperation and collaboration need this fertile ground. What can you expect in 60 minutes? We follow a clear format: Welcome, inspirational theme with a quote and a short meditation with body awareness; followed by mindful dialogue guidelines and 30 minutes of mindful dialogue ; ending with a one-word-share and a practice invitation for the coming weeks for your daily life: https://grateful.org/connect/events/ Who will be w
