Understanding Conscious Communication

Conscious communication involves heightened self-awareness during conversations, as well as awareness of the emotions and perspectives of others involved. This approach emphasizes the importance of understanding the purpose of communication, aiming for mutual understanding rather than mere information exchange. The Latin origins of the word communication suggest it is about sharing rather than telling, highlighting the need to forge connections through common understanding. Cultivating conscious communication can address the frequent miscommunication issues that arise in personal and professional interactions.
