\"DaisyA follow up to my Tuesday’s Kick Tush post, “The 7 Don’ts of Listening<\/a>,” I decided to dedicate this week to listening:\u00a0 to people, to pets, to the rustling trees, the chirping birds, to my thoughts, to the nighttime fall; as well as the food calling my name.<\/p>\n

I listen, observe, take notice, tune in and in so doing a calm washes over me, and I find myself making healthy choices with ease.\u00a0 For some, this is an obvious happening; for others, it might not make sense.\u00a0 Either way, I invite you to try it; to really listen to any and all that you can listen to and see if your relationship to food miraculously improves.\u00a0 Then…write me!<\/a><\/p>\n

Here are a few Listening Quotes to Chew On<\/strong><\/em> from Our Lady of Weight Loss<\/a> a.k.a. Our Lady of Weightlessness, she who assures that the \u2018light\u2019 and \u2018lite\u2019 are found in the silence!<\/p>\n

Most people do not listen with the intent to understand; they listen with the intent to reply. ~ Stephen\u00a0 R. Covey<\/em><\/p>\n

When people talk, listen completely. Most people never listen. ~ Ernest Hemingway<\/p>\n

Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around. ~ Leo Buscaglia<\/em><\/p>\n

There’s a lot of difference between listening and hearing. ~\u00a0 G.K. Chesterton<\/p>\n

I am bilingual, speaking English and body language.\u00a0 I prefer the latter, because I can speak it silently and without listening and while my back is turned. ~ Jarod Kintz<\/em><\/p>\n

Part of doing something is listening. We are listening. To the sun. To the stars. To the wind. ~ Madeleine L\u2019Engle<\/p>\n

You\u2019re short on ears and long on mouth. ~ John Wayne<\/em><\/p>\n

An appreciative listener is always stimulating. ~ Agatha Christie<\/p>\n

The art of conversation is the art of hearing as well as of being heard. ~ William Hazlitt<\/em><\/p>\n

We have two ears and only one tongue in order that we may hear more and speak less. ~ Diogenes Laertius<\/p>\n

Stop. Be present.\u00a0 Empty yourself.\u00a0 Wait.\u00a0 Listen.\u00a0 The answers are in the silence. ~ Janice Taylor<\/em><\/p>\n
