Mindful Listening is a quality and a skill for caregivers which engages our capacity to be present for another as well as being present for our selves. By training caregivers in the practice of mindfulness, including the Four Foundations of Mindfulness ( i.e., body, feelings, thoughts, and objects of mind) and by appreciating the effects of meeting suffering in end-of-life care, Mindful Listening can help develop a nonjudgmental and compassionate quality of awareness. Through acceptance, a quality associated with mindfulness, caregivers can experience and then offer a more open and relaxed presence. This may lessen the tendency to fix situations and establishes a greater sense of interconnectedness with those whom they serve. In their challenging role, caregivers may experience prolonged periods of stress and moral distress which may lead to burnout, secondary trauma, and empathy fatigue. The practice of mindful listening can offer a preventative measure within a continuum of self-care strategies.
