Biomimicry is a beautiful example ..how we co-exist...I studied Biology of human and plants and often find myself looking for such analogies; nature reminds us every now and then. So when we suck at conversations, which we all do, but these are important conversations, we can breathe, observe and connect with this knowledge of symbiosis. The symbiotic relationship between an anemone (Heteractis magnifica) and a clownfish (Amphiron ocellaris) is a classic example of two organisms benefiting the other; the anemone provides the clownfish with protection and shelter, while the clownfish provides the anemone nutrients in the form of waste while also scaring off potential predator fish.
A friend or a dear one speaks to you of their depression or grief , it's human nature to advise, most of us out of good intentions want to save that friend from further sinking into emotional grief,,and so we give advise, instead be open to your own emotions and feelings that otherwise propel us to say a word of advise...Magic can happen then if you remain open and listen.....read this full article to better understand the physiology and psychology of giving advise and collective sharing... https://www.npr.org//listen-open-up-connect-a-mental-healt
Advise from Seth Godin.... Zoom tips for the modern age: If you’ve ever joined more than three people on a Skype or Zoom conference call, I hope you’ll appreciate these tips, and perhaps share them: Sit close to the screen. Your face should fill most of it.... Use an external microphone or headset. Regardless of how you’re amplified, remember that the microphone is only a foot away, which means you don’t have to strain or raise your voice. Also, consider Krisp if you have background noise issues. When you’re not talking, hit mute. If you’re on mute, press and hold the space bar and you can be heard. Don’t eat during the meeting. When you’re on mute during an audio call, you can do whatever you want. But when you’re on mute on a video call, you need to act like you’re truly engaged. Nod your head. Focus on the screen. Don’t get up and feed your dog. Don’t sit with the window behind you. A little effort on lighting goes a very long way. When you’re talking, spend some time looking at the camera, not the screen. You’ll appear more earnest and honest this way. When you’re talking, go slow. No one is going to steal your slot. Don’t walk if you’re using a phone. And if you’re using a laptop, don’t put it on your lap. Please (!) do not use an animated background. Do not use a funny one either. If we’re noticing your background, you’re doing it wrong. See more
Here are my silver linings in this time of social distancing and lockdown. Being reactive is a way to cope as is being empathetic and grateful. I am noticing that I am being both at different or similar times...What are your silver linings? http://jaskalraconsulting.com/silver-lining/
