Communicating Compassionately
Thoughts, teachings and tips in relation to compassion.
I’m hosting a series of regular blogs on the language of compassion. Why, you might ask? Well it all has to do with wanting to live life differently, with more love and less fear, and …. being a linguist and language teacher, I know that language matters when it comes to expressing ourselves compassionately in our relationships.
You are what you say.
The blogs below come from the heart. They fall into three categories:
my thoughts, insights and wonderings
teachings, lessons that I have learnt (or learning) that I want to share
tips for those moments when you need to find resources within to manage in the moment.
Recognising and responding to ‘lane’ violations nonviolently.
Have you experienced moments when someone tells you that you should or shouldn’t do something? In these moments, do you feel sort of taken aback, a bit thrown, or perhaps a bit angry? Is it like, “Don’t tell me what I should or shouldn’t do? I’ll make up my own mind, thank you very much!”?
