Mindful Communication – Improving Your Relationships

• Do you have difficulty expressing your feelings verbally?
• Is your inner critic very active in your mind?
• Are you prone to interrupting people when they are speaking or tune out of conversations?
• Do you sometimes find yourself with not much to say or then pour out vast amounts of words and information with little or no meaning?

Poor communication is one of the main reasons we experience challenges in our relationships.

What is Mindful Communication?

Mindful communication involves listening, speaking and using non-verbal communication with kindness, attention, compassion and awareness. When we master the art of communication through mindfulness, we know how to be in the moment. We are able to connect with and learn from the people around us. We can strengthen relationships in every area of our lives and feel confident in our communication too.

you haven’t communicated properly”.
