The art of communication ( part 1/3 )
Communication, the heart of every relationship.
How do we get to know each other?
With communication.
How do we express ourselves?
Through communication.
How do we show that we don't like something?
Through communication.
We communicate with speaking and writing, maybe through painting, even silence can say a lot. We communicate a lot with our body gestures, but most importantly, we communicate with our energy that we radiate into space.
Actually, most of our communication happens on a vibrational level.
For example, I can say,
It's a rainy day today. (happily)
or
It's a rainy day today. (sad)
Same words, different energy.
In the first example, It's a rainy day. (happily) I told you that it is a rainy day, but also that I like rain. While in the second example (say sadly) I also told you that I don't like rain.
I didn't tell you that with words, but with the energy behind words.
So you see, words can tell you something, but the energy behind words can say even more.
Communication always contains at least two participants. One who expresses himself, and one who listens.
If someone is talking and no one is listening, there is no communication.
So if you want to be good at communication, you have to know how to express yourself and how to listen.
In the second and third parts of this series about communication, I will talk about just that. How to effectively express yourself and how to listen, especially to the energy behind words.
But for now, I would like to mention one more important communication that we have and that is communication with our inner self.
Even though that may seem weird, we do communicate with ourselves all the time.
For example when you ask yourself, what should I eat for lunch today? Then you listen to the inspiration or inner answer. Hmm, I wish to eat delicious curry.
That was my communication with myself. Strange? No, not at all. We do it all the time and we are so used to it that we don't even know we are doing it.
Communication with ourselves is very important for us because that is how we get to know ourselves, and that is how we know what we like and dislike. What we want to achieve in life or, whom we want to spend our time together.
Communication with ourselves is especially effective when we listen to ourselves honestly and sincerely.
But more about that in the third part of this three-part series about communication.
