Speaking Honestly

Cultivating Awareness through Communication

Speaking honestly to nurture meaningful connections for co-operation and connection   

Part one of Learning to Learn through Communication

The Pattern

Learning to speak honestly is designed to safely begin choosing to identify one’s intention that leads to self-connection first and then a connection with others.  One learns that stopping to check into one’s own intention or not, are both personal choices that each have different outcomes.  One way can lead to understanding and experiences of being heard, while the other way leads to conflict and reactions.

Part two of Learning to Learn through Communication

Integrating the Model

Skill development can deepen one’s awareness of speaking habits which  increases understanding and tolerance of each others differences of  opinions, perspectives and philosophies.  Practice can support an end to reactive conflict and be a fresh way of meaningful connection regardless these differences.  This can turn the effort into ease in conversations.  All parties in the dialogue can can begin to experience being heard, seen and valued.
