BE CURIOUS, a picture from the lovely book The boy, the mole, the fox and the horse. Be curious, I heard this a lot in my 2nd year at uni. I kept getting told that I wasn't curious enough. What is curious? Was I afraid that I was being nosey? Maybe! But I realise that being curious would encourage the client to talk more. Although I didn't finish the course to become a counsellor I find the skills that I learnt helping my clients that I see for their therapies now. When someone needs to talk I find my skills very useful and find that I'm more curious about their feelings and curious to why they feel like that. I try to also be curious about my own feelings and where they come from. Where do I feel those feelings in my body? I encourage you to do the same. See what happens. Xx
