Slowing Down for the Sake of Our Social Brain

Part of ‘flaming’ is the acceleration of time that e-interactions give us – and what a blessing that acceleration can be! Yet there is a different quality to that sort of interaction than to real-time interactions. So here is the vital question that occupies my mind as I consider all this:
How can we have the benefits but also give our social brains what they hunger for?What practises can I develop in myself that will help me do e-interactions with more social awareness?

All I can think of is training myself to slow down and imagine the other person and bring my full presence to them – before I begin to respond.

Wait…. this sounds familiar!! Don’t I teach this with couples - slowing down and consciously bringing your full presence to yourself and then the other in order to have a connection….?
