Understanding Basking in Relating to Others

Basking is a method that involves more body-based relating rather than focusing solely on words when interacting with others. It entails absorbing the other person's presence, similar to soaking up the sun's rays. The technique emphasizes feeling the experience of being with someone rather than just listening to their words. By incorporating basking, one can perceive subtleties and emotions beyond what is explicitly shared.
