Attune: Creating Harmony in Your Communications and Your Life - Paperback

by Angela Parrish (Author)

Healthy human connection is vital for our happiness and wellbeing, both individually and as a society. Unfortunately, our connections today are often strained, and we may sometimes find it difficult to converse with family members, co-workers and others with kindness, openness and respect. As a result, anxiety and agitation are increasing and our wellbeing is suffering.

Our communication culture has changed significantly in recent years. Increased reliance on digital communications often prioritizes rapid responses and brevity over more thoughtful, nuanced conversations, potentially leading to misunderstandings. We are also experiencing a greater prevalence of mean and disrespectful speech, which has been amplified and even normalized by both social media platforms and the behavior of others.

Imagine an alternative world, where you bring a warm, open attitude to everyone you encounter. Where you bring presence, understanding and compassion to even the most difficult conversations. Attune shows you the path for cultivating these qualities and for bringing kindness and harmony into all of your relationships.

Drawing upon age-old intelligence and practices from the Buddhist tradition, Attune will give you the inspiration, insight and skills needed to:

• Create a strong aspiration for nurturing healthy relationships
• Cultivate greater presence and understanding of yourself and others, and
• Develop the skills of deep listening and mindful speech that will bring authenticity and mutual benefit to all your interactions.

Together, through embodying the teachings of Attune, we can begin to restore and enrich the harmony so needed in our personal lives and in our world.
