Experience deep emotional healing in a safe environment. Get to the root of yourself in this intensive 2 night, magical ceremony surrounded serenity here at Crystal Roots.
In this retreat, we will explore our relationship with integrity and the power of the word. Are you impeccable with your word? Or do your words tend to roll around your head and even out of your mouth before others have finished speaking: almost a competition to get your thoughts out before you forget and therefore barely listening to those you converse with? What conversations are you having to yourself about yourself? Have you identified the negative voice? Can you hear a positive one? Are you practicing what you preach? Which voice do you listen to and follow? Our inner conversations are really where we need to start.
Be Impeccable with your word: speak with integrity. Say only what you mean. Avoid using the word to speak against yourself or to gossip about others. Use the power of your word in the direction of truth and love. Mean what you say and say what you mean.
In The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz, the first agreement Ruiz prescribes is to be impeccable with our words.
Here are a few ideas on how to be more impeccable with your words:
Take time to listen. Listen to respond, not to react or to fix. Try to not be eager to spill out your own thoughts before others are finished (tough one!). Really tune in which likely means put your phone down, turn away from the laptop, turn the TV off and look at people while they are speaking.
Choose your words mindfully: even that few extra seconds can save you from saying something you didn’t mean or that doesn’t make sense or perhaps comes across as inappropriate. Once our words leave our lips, they cannot be reversed. You may need to say “just a moment while I think” and notice you will start to say less.
Think of your words as a contract: if you were upheld to the words you use how would you speak differently? If for example, you tell someone “I’ll be there” but don’t mean it, what are the repercussions? People will trust you less, invite you less, think you’re a flake or simply not think your words have much value. Practise saying “I’ll try to be there”, “let me get back to you”, or whatever suits, even if it’s “no, I won’t be able to”.
“Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody’s going to know wether you did it or not.” ~ Oprah. It’s all about the words we hold ourselves accountable to.
