Communication Dynamics :
“Me” in Communication – Our Body speaks
Following from last week article of how our feelings can influence the way we communicate, this week, we look at OUR BODY. We know too, that our body too, speaks in our communication. The way our body feels can influence our communication.
A well-rested and energetic body can allow one to feel positive, up-beat, happy and patient, can influence positively our way of communicating. When I am well rested, I observe that I have sufficient energy, clarity to manage my way of responding to the communication by others. I am less affected by what I read or receive.

A tired, stressed body from lack of sleep, work or relationship stress, may influence the temperament of the person, and therefore affect his or her way of communicating. Also, if the body is unwell, sick, headache or aching body can affect our temperament when relating to others. For when I am tired, I might easily be upset or impatient while conversing with the other. Perhaps, when I am not in the right frame of mind because I am tired, I should restrain myself from reading too many messages may trigger a discomfort or irritate me that lead to loss of temper, frustration etc.

Invitation to Reflection on how your body ‘feel or speaks’ in communication
I listen to my body; am I feeling tired at the moment, is there an unease in me, a headache or am I feeling good, well rested and energetic? I observe how the way my body speaks affects my communication.
With this we end, “Me” in Communication, how my inner disposition of relational capacities, my thoughts, feelings and body participate and influence my quality of communications.
Next week, we start a another element in Communication Dynamics especially on the messages that we express during our communication with another.
