There is a formula that works well once you get the hang of it. We will endeavor to explain this in a way that is easily understood.

The ego-mind is usually accustomed to reacting to stimuli. Whereas, the Soul knows how to respond. To avoid ego reaction, it is useful to pause for as long as it takes to come deeper into your Soul’s expression. And, if you cannot get there easily, we suggest that you remain silent until you do. Even if this means delaying your communication for another day.

It is far greater to avoid giving a negative reaction or attacking someone with uncaring words. For, once you participate in the unkind action, wounding occurs in the relationship which can take a lifetime to heal.

Practice responding from your Soul’s knowing. Retrain your ego-mind to wait for your Soul’s kind and compassionate response. Taking the time necessary to reply in love will save you countless hours of recovery.
