Compassionate Communication
Manage episode 196184530 series 1950887
What we are speaks louder than what we say. This episode explores the legend of Buddha transforming Mara's arrows into flowers and how we can cultivate that power in modern life with the acronym PETALS. Each letter stands for a mindfulness-based strategy for resolving interpersonal conflicts:
Posture | Energy | Timing | Assertiveness |
Language | Space
There are many social pressures and challenges. These techniques can help build and maintain harmony among family, friends, co-workers and everyone else.
