The Wisdom of Listening: A 7-Week Practice in Active, Contemplative Listening

7 Tuesdays, Noon-1:00 Central Time, beginning April 7th

This experiential series is open to people of all backgrounds, professions, and spiritual paths and is designed for those who learn best through practice rather than lecture.

Each week, participants receive access to a brief 10-minute video introducing the theme and listening posture for the upcoming week. Our live sessions then focus on reflective questions, guided meditation, one-on-one and group listening conversations, offering spacious, supported practice in contemplative, active listening. 

Along the way, we gently notice the habits, pressures, and cultural patterns that can interfere with deep listening, practicing a compassionate return to presence while learning to stay attentive without over-carrying or absorbing what is not ours.

Rooted in the wisdom tradition of spiritual companionship, this series draws from the first year of Wisdom Tree Collective’s formation and spiritual direction trainings while remaining fully accessible to the wider public. No prior experience is required.

For anyone longing to listen more deeply—to others, to life, or to the Sacred.

Early registration rate: $275
Available through March 7th.

After this date, tuition returns to $325.

A limited number of partial scholarships are available.

If the cost of this series would be a barrier to participation, you are warmly invited to request a scholarship. We trust participants to discern their needs with integrity, and no additional explanation is required.
