Turning Off Autopilot, Bringing Awareness & Getting Present to Communication

What does it mean to be aware of our communication? How do we become actively engaged?Can we learn to recognize, acknowledge, note, and be present to our communication in a gentle and neutral way?How do we control our patterns instead of the other way around? What are we swimming in?...Abbie discusses how it might be easier to go on autopilot when it comes to how we communicate, but the way to create a better social world is through awareness; when we start to bring awareness to our communication, it has to be a nonjudgmental awareness; and how we can look at communication, instead of through it by zooming out and taking a new perspective. Abbie explores the first step to making new choices (remember that you have a choice in the first place), the way to control our patterns through bringing awareness to them, and the way that being aware and present one moment at a time helps us to be more resilient in the face of life’s complexities. ...Stories Lived.
