Are you "stuck in your head" often because you're so stressed out and busy these days?
Feeling frustrated that you're not getting through to people, or that your loved ones, clients or colleagues aren't quite connecting with you in the way you would like them to?
Worried that when you talk no one hears you, or do you even feel that people think you are "ranting" or "rambling" all the time?
Communication issues have to do with the part of your energetic body that's called the Throat Chakra.
The Throat Chakra governs your ability to speak up and be heard with clarity and authenticity in this lifetime.
Watch the above video to explore why you should stop "speaking your mind," and what you should start doing instead, to heal your communication issues!
Clear communication is an energy exchange.
It involves you expressing yourself clearly, as well as the other person experiencing your expression clearly.
A healthy Throat Chakra exchange leaves you feeling heard, connected and well received.
Therefore, the energy exchanged in communication needs to be clear and open on both sides: both for that of the speaker and listener.
It's obvious that having a garbled message can ruin the quality of our communication with others.
However, what may not be so obvious is that having garbled energy can also affect the quality of our communication with others, perhaps even moreso than the message itself.
Why? Because everyone is an empathic listener, to some degree.
And, on top of that, the majority of people have no idea what the heck that means. YAY! 🙂 It's a hot mess, I know, but hey, that's what we are here to solve, right lightworkers?
So what exactly is an empathic listener?
Does that mean everyone is psychic or something? No, not exactly.
An empathic listener is someone who is "listening" to or moreover aware of the energy that someone else is giving off in a given situation. In short, they pick up the person's "vibes."
For example, have you ever had the experience of watching someone read a really well-written speech, but you could tell they were faking it or being disingenuous?
What gave them away? They had correct body language, they varied their voice tone elegantly, and said all the right words. Heck, they even had a great outfit on and smelled good!
But how you could tell that they didn't really feel what they were saying to you, even though all of your 5 senses were being "correctly" tickled by the book?
Here's how: your 6th Empathic Sense felt the imbalanced energy that they were sending out, and you in turn concluded they were being disingenuous.
This is therefore a more extreme example of someone speaking their mind, and not speaking their heart.
The meaning, the resonance, gets lost in translation when we are personally out of alignment when communicating.
And that's a big reason why people can and will misunderstand what we are trying to say, or even write off what we are talking about: it's not coming from the right place.
Know this: Don't speak your mind. Speak your heart. #communication #leadership
When we try to do a "perfect" job in talking, sometimes the heart of the matter can get lost in translation.
Maybe you've been preparing your presentation at work for a very long time, or maybe you've been trying to figure out "just the right way" to tell your loved one something that's a sensitive subject.
Just get out of your head, and into your heart.
The ego is very powerful at wanting to wrap himself around everything you experience. However, it can in it's wrapping end up choking the flow of expression with too much censorship and analysis paralysis.
So, when you feel like your loved ones, clients or colleagues aren't quite getting it, make time to stop what you're saying and check in with them. You can ask "did that make sense or have I lost you?" for example.
Watch this week's video for the Oracle Card of the Week, which explains exactly how to speak from your heart and who you're really doing it for!
