Active listening is a crucial skill, simply listening, sitting by their side and being there with them... I've always been told silence is golden. I learn from the consumer and they learn from me. Strong bonds are formed by being an active listener.

It is important to listen with sacred intention, and to resist the urge to be formulating a response internally while the peer is sharing.

La escucha activa es uno de los fundamentos para lograr una comunicación efectiva.Por parte de los gestores del proyecto deben intentar recabar toda la información por parte del grupo de trabajo.

Active listening is the foundation stone to building trust and providing support. There are many instances in which I have witnessed people around me not really paying attention to what was being told to them and the clients getting disappointed in their services. It's so important to make note of what is being told verbally AND non-verbally to truly understand the clients' needs. It makes them feel heard without being judged.

Yes determining the emotion and not on just what is being said is very important. And that the person interprets that someone cares is also very crucial and very important as it builds trust knowing that someone is not only trying to help but also cares about helping them. Sometimes it's not the solution but the effort that sparks change.

Active listening is crucial for a peer support specialist because it fosters a supportive and empathetic environment, which is vital for building trust and rapport with those seeking help. Here are some key reasons why active listening is important: 1. Empathy and Understanding 2. Empowerment 3. Trust Building 4. Promotes Clarity 5. Reduces Isolation 6. Improves Communication In essence, active listening helps peer support specialists provide compassionate, person-centered care that is both empowering and transformative.

Escuchar activamente al otro, es como bailar al mismo ritmo. Para ello, necesitas tomar en cuenta al otro en todo sentido, saber distinguir lo que necesita y estar atento a los detalles. Volviendo a la comparación, bailar requiere atención y equilibrio; pasándolo al plano de la escucha activa, el equilibrio se.logra cuando la otra persona se siente plenamente acompañada. No es aconsejar y opinar solamente, incluso en ocasiones es lo que nuestro interlocutor es lo que menos espera.

One thing I love to say that caring for others makes you a unique person. But care for your self even more better to enrich wellbeing towards positive motivation.

Al trabajar entre pares hay que tener en cuenta que todas las personas son diferentes por eso hay que comprender y aceptar las diferencias de visión que hay sobre los proyectos y los posibles fallos que se puedan comentar.Para encontrar la excelencia hay que ser empático y compasivo ya que puedes verte en la misma situación.

Debemos partir del punto que todos somo personas antes que trabajadores...... Todos tenemos situaciones en la vida personal que pueden favorecernos o perjudicarnos en el desempeño de nuestro trabajo. Por esa razón se vemos ponernos en la sutiacion de nuestro par.

Empathy and compassion comes next on the list of fundamentals in peer support. Without empathy, there's only room for judgement. It's crucial to be aware of our personal conscious and unconscious biases to know that things may be dealt differently in different cultures and background. Empathy and compassion is asking yourself - what helped you during similar experiences? And what did not work?

One thing I don't see is AUTHENTICITY. Yes, empathy and compassion are necessary for being effective in a peer support role, but without authenticity it is difficult to inspire hope and serve as an example of what is possible. A peers efficacy is directly related to how visible their scars are. This is expressed when you come from an authentic place and show humility allowing yourself to been seen as human and someone who has made the journey back from Hell and care enough to show others the way without pretending like you've never seen the gates or learned your demons names. Using your experiences and sharing them constructively to show others that you've seen the dark and can relate. It's only then that you can help them see the light.

This includes written communication skills. As much as we may hate to admit it, documentation and charting are a big part of Peer work. Developing our document and charting skills is a sure way to improve our career opportunities as Peer Specialists.

Effective communication is crucial especially when sharing my story. I want to make sure that I am not monopolizing the conversation, that what I am saying is useful and provides hope. Active listening is an important communication tool, when I am actively listening, the care and support are evident not just through my physical responses, but through my verbal responses. This shows that I have not only been listening, but that I care about what is being said, validating the individual and showing them that they are seen, heard, and supported.

La comunicación es necesaria en todos los ámbitos. Si hay una buena comunicación y un buen entendimiento el trabajo será más sencillo y llegará a mejor calidad.

Communication is everything. It's important to consistently paraphrase what the other person says to validate whether you understand them correctly for better care and support. It is equally important to check if your words and intentions are correctly communicated to the client. Active listening, in my opinion is a part of proper communication. If there are any barriers to communicating properly, seek assistance from anyone around. Asking goes a long way.

Estas habilidades creo que son fundamentales combinándolas con la escucha activa, ya que con la escucha activa vamos a poder identificar la debilidad de nuestro par y con una comunicación efectiva y/o eficiente vamos a poder ayudarlo a transformar esa debilidad en una oportunidad de mejora y, porque no, en una fortaleza

I say! Communication skills are very essential to filling in programs progressing. It offers a positive drive to draw a road map to get to the right point and build up a positive value.

La ética laboral es esencial en todo puesto de trabajo, son las normas básicas para no hacer lo que no se debe.En algunos casos si se sobrepasan los límites se puede incurrir en un delito. De ahí la importancia de ser un profesional cualificado y concienciado con las labores que se ejecutan.

As a peer support worker, one must go through and understand the ethics and boundaries we must maintain in our role. It can get a little awkward, uncomfortable or even dangerous to both parties if we overstep the boundaries and violate the ethics set for us. It is important to reflect on ourselves consistently to know and take accountability if we find ourselves doing so and being mindful during sessions with clients about what we say and do.

One thing I've found helpful is robust physical activity, hard cardio or weight training, for my mental health as much or more as my physical. It's an incredibly important part of my self care, those endorphins that get released and the better sleep I get that night.

I would imagine a successful and effective way of doing this would involve doing the best as possible to ensure a good relative understanding of that persons own ethnic identifying experiences, personality characteristics that determine the overall experience that the individual is experiencing and making sure to ask questions to better help you as the Peer Personal, best relate in a way that shows yes, your wanting to understand and have a firm understanding around the issues that arise with the individual seeking support; but asking those questions to better understand that person ex. What are those practices and social norms that have previously been discussed. What does that mean… or draw a picture of how they would personally define …
