Active listening involves paying close attention to what the other person is trying to say, often paraphrasing, back-commenting, and expressing interest/amusement when appropriate. In this way, participants establish an emotional connection, reduce quarrels, and create a clearer picture of each other. A calm tone & positive attitude toward feedback encourage openness and self-awareness about relationship patterns. This increases the likelihood of healthy interactions, leading to long-term growth and overall well-being.
