Épisode 7 - Discussion entre amis sur des mots normands

Each language has it's own way to pronunciate and express what you want to say. To express your thoughts. So in order to achieve that we a have one of the most beautiful tools within our body, the voice. The voice is a result of breathing, vocal cords and the mouth system. Muscles outer and inner ones, tongue, teeth and airflow basically. So if you want to pronunciate correctly from one language to another you just need to become aware and imitate the same movements.
How?
In fron of a mirror
read a list ow words in your own language and in the language you want to learn.
slowly pronunciate your words and the new words.
Become aware of the movements you give for granted and the new movements.
Feel your mouth.

It is a process where you need to slow down form any of your rush from the day. A chance to know better and a kind of mindful meditation as well. So many things to be grateful! Just play with it and with patience you are going to talk even better than me..

Yes but how do I know the new movements and how they sounds?

In the business world, active listening goes beyond simply hearing information. It's a strategic communication skill that fosters deeper understanding, builds trust, and improves collaboration. It involves giving your full attention to a speaker, both verbally and nonverbally, to grasp the complete message. This includes:

Paying close attention: Minimize distractions, maintain eye contact, and avoid formulating counter-arguments while someone speaks.
Understanding nonverbal cues: Notice body language, tone of voice, and facial expressions to glean underlying emotions or unspoken concerns.
Asking clarifying questions: Don't assume you understand everything. Use open-ended questions to encourage elaboration and ensure you're on the same page.
Paraphrasing and summarizing: Reflect back key points in your own words to confirm comprehension and demonstrate attentiveness.
Empathy and emotional intelligence: Acknowledge the speaker's feelings and tailor your responses to create a safe space for open communication.
Active listening benefits businesses in numerous ways:

Stronger client relationships: By truly understanding client needs, businesses can provide more relevant solutions and build lasting partnerships.
Enhanced negotiation and sales: Active listening allows salespeople to tailor pitches and identify client concerns for successful deal-closing.
Improved team dynamics: Active listening fosters collaboration by ensuring everyone feels heard and valued, leading to better problem-solving and decision-making.
Reduced conflict: By giving speakers their due attention and clarifying positions, misunderstandings and conflicts are minimized.
Increased productivity: Active listening avoids wasted time due to miscommunication and ensures everyone is working towards the same goals.
By actively listening, businesses create a communication culture that fosters trust, collaboration, and ultimately, success.

Episodio 6: El árbol de piña

People who spend a lot of time sitting down might reduce their health risks by drinking coffee, a new study suggests.

Researchers from China wanted to look at the health effects of coffee drinking and time spent sitting.

They looked at health data for nearly 11,000 people in the US and followed them for up to 13 years.

During the period of the study, 945 people died, including 284 from heart disease.

The research team found that people who sat for over eight hours a day were almost 50% more likely to die from all causes, and nearly 80% more likely to die from heart disease.

That's compared to people who sat for fewer than four hours per day.

Sitting for a long time has been linked to increased risks of diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity and more.

The researchers also found that people who drank the most coffee — three or more cups per day — reduced their risk of death from all causes by over 30% compared to those who drank no coffee. And they were more than 50% less likely to die from heart disease.

And drinking coffee even seemed to protect people from the health risks of sitting down: coffee drinkers could sit for more than six hours a day and still have about the same risk of death as non-coffee drinkers who sat for less than six hours.

However, the researchers said they didn't look at the effects of different types of coffee on our health, so they couldn't be sure which type was best.

They wrote that more research would be needed on this "miracle" drink.
