2. Want to communicate with intentionality? Use the 3 stages of alchemy
Do you have unnecessary stress or tension in your relationships? Then this episode is for you!
In this episode, I talk about the link between tension and stress in your life and relationships and the language you speak.
You’ll hear about the benefits of paying attention to language and the perils of taking your language for granted.
Just like when you pay attention to your breath after learning pranayama or breathing techniques in mindfulness and meditation practices, you can pay attention to your language when you learn the 3 stages of alchemy.
To make the 3 stages of alchemy clear for you, I give you an example. A friend invites you to do something you don’t feel comfortable doing, but you end up saying ‘yes’. What happens from the moment you say that habitual ‘yes’ until the moment of the event?
And what if instead of giving a habitual response, you knew how to use the 3 stages of alchemy to give an intentional response?
Ready to learn how? Listen to the 15-minute episode and find out!
Takeaways from this episode:
- Most of us take language for granted and use habitual language rather than conscious language
- Habitual language can bring unnecessary stress and tension into your relationships, while intentional language can bring calmness, clarity and authenticity
- Alchemy has three stages: awareness, exploration and integration
- The more aware you are of your language, the more you can decrease tension and stress in your life and your relationships
- You can learn how to alchemize your language and transform it into communication gold
