This book provides practical exercises and principles for you to master strategies for high-level communication. You will learn empathic listening skills, conflict resolution skills, and ways of assertion that align with the principles rooted in your spiritual truth. This book shows you how to be in more honest satisfying relationships, deepen self-awareness, and learn how to live a life of purposeful action. You will be guided to recognize patterns of assumptions by which you’ve been living your life, and to replace unhealthy and ineffective belief systems with truths and principles rooted in your core spiritual identity. Through processes of courageous introspection described in this book, you are empowered to connect with what is vitally important, and live with intentionality to manifest your highest purpose while helping others do the same.

Relationships that work begin with the relationship with our self. On the first page, we distinguish the self from the body. To cite Teilhard de Chardin, “We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience.” The process of reading this book is meant to facilitate a connection with your authentic personality—the spiritual core that is not defined by any role you play or possessions attached to your name. As confirmed by the great wisdom traditions, this consciousness is the foundation for a life of peaceful existence, powerful vision and purposeful action. Living from truly spiritual consciousness, our qualities of compassion, vitality and love naturally radiate. Cultivate mastery of the methods of transformative communication and you will possess the currency to express the richness of your soul in every situation and to create relationships that work.

In both practical application and philosophical foundation, this second edition provides substantially enriched opportunity for experiencing the power of conscious living.
