The Energy Behind Words

It’s not so much what we say, but the energy behind the words. I know there is the old adage, “It’s not what you say, but how you say it.” But, I would refine this to actually be about the energy. For example, if I try to sound nice, but in my heart, I can feel myself seething with rage, the rage will transmit to the other person. Neither the sender nor the receiver may be conscious of it, but it will send nonetheless.

We can take a moment to try to genuinely find the right feeling inside of us before we connect with someone, and attentiveness to this, and being conscious of what we are feeling when we speak will make a big difference in what we send out to others, and therefore, what we experience.
