How can I improve my empathy skills?

Improving empathy skills involves active listening, understanding emotions, and practicing perspective-taking. Would you like some exercises?

Yes, please share some exercises I can try.

You can try the 'Perspective-Taking' exercise: think of a situation from someone else's viewpoint. Write down their feelings.

That sounds interesting! Any other exercises?

Another exercise is 'Active Listening': have a conversation where you focus entirely on the other person, summarizing what they say to ensure understanding.

I’ll definitely try these! How long should I practice?

Practice these exercises regularly, ideally a few times a week, to see significant improvement over time.
