Unwind Before a Tough Conversation
About this class
Calm the mind and heart before a tough interaction so you can get your point across with clarity and kindness.
We can all lose our cool during difficult conversations, saying things that we later regret, or not getting our point across the way we wanted. In this short guided practice Lisa Kring will show us how to drop down below the turbulence of any thoughts and stresses, into a state of deep calm that will help us stay cool, clear and calm.
