Expressing myself better
People’s thoughts:

„Could it be a helpful tool to master positive language in order to automatically steer our thoughts in that direction.“

Everything we say has an effect. Everything we speak is our responsibility. We can question every word, reflect on it, and become aware of its impact. In every single moment what do we say how do we say it and what does it trigger in others Our thoughts and feelings express themselves in our behavior and our language. If we carry resentment or anger it shows in our posture tone and interaction.

If we are clear and at peace with ourselves we meet others in that clarity. Our words can build up or hurt. That’s why it’s worth paying attention. Life responds to what we give. When we offer kindness kindness comes back to us. If we focus on lack and dissatisfaction we project exactly that outward. What we say is never just language. It is lived inner attitude.

Personal experience

For a long time I hurt others with my energetic way of expressing myself. I was aware of it yet often reacted out of old wounds. And yes I reacted instead of reflecting in the moment on how and what I was actually saying. That too was a process. Improving your way of expressing yourself adopting positive language and expressing yourself better this way helps. It helps you to move through life more kindly compassionately and clearly in peace.

How to proceed

Take responsibility for your words. Choose them so they support connection instead of throwing yourself and others off balance. You can learn to consciously perceive your language here and now and reflect on what you say. After every conversation you have after every self-criticism you practice. This way you give yourself the chance to meet yourself and others with your words in a positive way. When you decide to use clear and positive expression your thoughts settle more easily and you become a role model in how you relate to yourself and others.

Take these questions in hand

• How do I speak with others and with myself?
• 
What does it trigger in me and in those I interact with?
• 
Do I use kind words or a tone I should perhaps avoid because it hurts me and others?
• 
How can I express myself differently so that no one is harmed on the contrary so it perhaps builds up?
