Beyond Words
Communication Skills from the Higher Mind

 
Webster defines communication as a process by which information is exchanged between individuals through a common system of symbols, signs, or behavior. Experts report that 93% of all communication is non-verbal.  And, since most non-verbal communication is a result of unconscious intent information is frequently miss-communicated unknowingly. Our minds and our bodies are often on two different wavelengths sending out mixed messages. To those trying to understand us, it creates the same subtle confusion as seeing the sun shine at the same time that it’s raining.

 As professionals, many of us have spent years honing our skills of marketing and negotiating.  We know our jobs and we know our clients and customers.  But, how well do we know ourselves, and in particular the ways in which our words are heard by others?  Do we effectively communicate what we know?  And how does it sound to others?  Does it sound confident and professional?  Or does it come across rather like the verbal swagger of the proverbial ‘used car salesman’? (no offense intended!)  Is there clarity in our words? Do we speak from power or from ignorance?  Is there compassion?   We often jeopardize our business relationships by ignoring the unconscious content of the communication process. 

Anyone who has ever studied the arts of communication will tell you that listening is more important than speaking. And yet few of us ever really learned how to listen well.  Hearing is not the same as listening. Are you listening as well as you can? Can you hear what is NOT being said?  Non-verbal communication skills are an essential tool for everyone.

This program helps you to develop more awareness of the non-verbal component of communication. Using a variety of techniques from NLP, Yoga & Buddhist Meditation you will learn how to listen with the whole body and find the right words, with the right tone, and the right spirit at the right time.

This topic can be delivered either as a lecture, training class, experiential workshop or seminar.
