Fogging is a simple skill that helps you accept feedback calmly without feeling upset or stressed.
The idea is that there’s a thick, dense fog between you and the other person.
The fog slows the feedback coming at you, like a thick fog would slow a stone if someone threw one at you.
Also, you’re less likely to throw the stone back because the feedback doesn’t feel as harsh.
To fog feedback, imagine a cloud of fog between you and the other person.
As the person gives you feedback, imagine the words slowing down in the fog as they come at you.
You can even imagine the words absorbing the fog so that they grow into fluffy puffballs of feedback.
