299: how to react less and respond better

How do you react less and respond better? We chat about this and more during this episode.


Can you relate? You’re having a simple chat with your partner, sibling or best friend and they say something that frustrates you. You then blow up with a reply that almost shocks you?!

We both can definitely relate to this!


And this is why learning to respond rather than react reduces a whole lot of suffering, creates more happiness and stronger relationships.


Stuff we talked about…

  • Be more empathetic and considerate of others. Shock horror, the world does not revolve around you, sorry.
  • Don’t take things personally. Practice stepping out of your story and stop relating what they’re doing to you.
  • Add space where possible, whether it’s a breath or time to go inwards to process and reflect on the situation. It could also be a meditation, going for a walk, doing a yoga or Pilates class. It’s shifting your environment creating space between what happened and your response.
  • Create a practice that helps you become better at responding before the situation even occurs.
  • We have to have the awareness, the want and the desire to work on how we respond. This is the first step.
  • Don’t keep things inside you. If something upsets you then figure out how to talk about it with your partner, friend, sister, parents or whoever.
