Is it possible that human relationships are one of the best fields for cultivating mindfulness? Is it possible that we can bring mindfulness to all our interpersonal communications – even those that are virtual? As we move between interacting virtually to being in person again – whether with friends, family, co-workers, or each other – can practice help us cultivate the skills that can support us in staying present within challenging conversations?
