2. Mixer -- listen to how many channels of sounds you can hear in a noisy environment
3. Savor -- savoring mundane sounds -- like your dryer or your coffee grinder
4. Position -- move your listening position to what is appropriate for what you are listening to: are you active/passive, reductive/expansive, or critical/empathetic
