Wholesale How to Communicate Like a Buddhist

An Instruction Manual for Clear Communication The most well-known Buddhist teachers on the planet all have something in common: they are excellent communicators. This is not a coincidence, as the Buddha taught what are called the four elements of right speech over 2,600 years ago. In this one-of-a-kind book, certified meditation and mindfulness instructor Cynthia Kane has taken the four elements of right speech and developed them into a modern practice based on mindful listening, mindful speech, and mindful silence. Beginning with an illuminating self-test to assess your current communication style, this book will take you through the author's own five-step practice, which will help you learn to: 1. Listen to yourself (your internal and external words) 2. Listen to others 3. Speak consciously, concisely, and clearly 4. Regard silence as a part of speech 5. Meditate to enhance your communication skills
