Love requires communication. Good communication = great intimacy! I’m sure you’ve heard that before! But how do you do it?! A great starting place is coming to the realization that you cannot speak to your partner, family or children anyway that you want. That type of approach in communicating will breed deep resentments that erode the foundation of a loving relationship.

Everything that is associated with your personhood and life requires your presence and mindfulness to work well and be sustained for longevity. Don’t take the people who are closest to you for granted. Let your words first pass through this mental mantra, “Do No Harm”, will your words cause harm? If they will, don’t use them. This statement does not mean avoid conflicts that will require you to share your honest feelings!

What it does mean is, use loving speech when sharing your feelings. When emotions are running high, if you can’t do that, don’t speak. Allow yourself space to work through your ego and anger. Working through those emotions will help you uncover your deeper feelings which are usually feelings of being hurt, misunderstood or afraid. Your ability to come from a place of love and emotional vulnerability is the basis of right speech!

Your loved ones above all people need and desire your loving-kindness. Making positive speech an active habit, first to yourself then to your family, community and beyond will build trust and intimacy in your overall life.
