Dear friends,

I receive a lot of questions about communication: How to speak well? How to avoid conflicts, especially with loved ones? And how to become better communicators in the workplace?

So far in this column, we have talked of ways to improve overall well-being through various simple exercises, such as using Heartfulness Meditation to raise our level of consciousness, Heartfulness Cleaning to rid ourselves of inner complexities and impurities, and Heartfulness Prayer to dissolve our individual identity. We have focused on when we do these spiritual practices and how they can help us every day.

But what about the many waking hours each day we are communicating with other people? Our character is communicated in every little interaction. The quality of our communication affects the quality of our lives in so many ways.

So can we make our way of communicating also a way of becoming better human beings? Here are a few tips to become more effective and gracious communicators.
