EMOTIONAL RESPONSE
There's times when speaking our minds will be the right thing to do. It's knowing when it's right to communicate our opinions, that we can avert a potential disaster from occurring. Emotions will play a hand in every thing we say and do, so it pays to be aware of them to make the right decisions to speak up or not.
It's tough keeping our opinions to ourselves when we really want to let them out. We need an exceptional strength of mind and an elevated level of self control at those times when communication will do us no favours.
When we are intoxicated, tired, stressed and the emotions are running high - this is when we are at the greatest risk. It's often after the emotions have passed that regret creeps in because we've said and done the wrong things.
This is where yoga, meditation and breath focus will help distract us away from our negative thoughts and steer us to calmer controlled emotional states. It's this place of reason that we need to come from when we make those replies.
Access Denied
These days, it's all too easy to make that mistake of communication when we shouldn't. So we need to make sure there's no smartphone, iPad or computer to hand. This will be that time a regretful connection via the Internet; facebook post, tweet, email or text can easily be pumped out into the ether, or phone call can be made that puts us in a bad situation.
