People don’t always mean what they say and often they are UNAWARE of the EMOTIONS behind their words. While we are all different, humans have tendencies in communication. For example, when we tell people what “they should do.” You’re directing your friend in a specific direction because you truly believe that is what’s best for them. Your intention may be to keep them safe. but sometimes, on the receiving end, it can feel like they don’t trust you to make the right decision. Or they don’t believe in the way you want to do things. Essentially, it can feel like a judgment. I used to take EVERYTHING PERSONALLY 🫠 It wasn’t fun… It was exhausting But when I began to understand this concept, that people’s communication with others is often a reflection of how they communicate with themselves… I was LIBERATED. It wasn’t about me, it was about them. This can be a really humbling experience because then you realize the way you communicate with people is a reflection of your inner atmosphere. So tell me, what does your communication say about you? #communicationskills #mindfulcommunication #consciouscommunication #emotionalintelligence #selfawareness #healingjourney
