What role does language play when it comes to mindfulness? And what can the words we use do to us and those we interact with?
In this episode, coach Travis Ramsey shares his insights on understanding language to achieve mindfulness, the impact different words we use have on our professional and personal life, and how to become an overall better communicator.
- Start listening to this episode – which focuses on language and the subtle impact of the words we use – by sitting back, closing your eyes and focusing on what you feel.
- Travis Ramsey does a quick recap of the last episode (about mental fitness) and talks about how to find the balance between being in a good spot and giving to others without running low on positive energy.
- When it comes to mindfulness and focusing on the things you aren’t aware of, Travis recommends starting by focusing on language because it’s our internal feelings shift, come and go, but the words we speak into existence are concrete and tangible, and they can even be recorded.
- Travis sees language as a powerful first step on the journey to mindfulness.
- The words 'can't, 'not' and 'try' are very powerful words. Travis discusses their impact, as well as additional word categories and their implications when it comes to you feeling like you have (or you don't have) a choice.
- There's a strong connection between language and emotions – Travis unpacks this concept further by touching upon words like 'always,' 'just' and 'but' and the feelings they create.
- Travis shares his thoughts about using 'I' and 'we.'
