Here’s what’s in our groovy mix:

• An exploratory study tested the relationship between mindfulness and factors influencing supportive communication

• A Forbes article addresses how mindfulness can help mitigate the negative effect of multitasking in communication

• 10 affirmations on increasing your communication skills

Supportive communication involves care, empathy, and encouragement, and is crucial for coping with difficult emotions.

We all want to be there for our friends when they're going through a tough time, but sometimes we just don't know what to say. Well, according to a study by the APA (American Psychological Association), the key to being a supportive friend might just be mindfulness!

Here's what the study found:

• 🧠 Mindfulness, which is all about being present and aware of your thoughts and feelings, can improve your social skills and make you a better communicator.

• 🗣️ The study tested the impact of brief mindful interventions on social skills, communicative coping skills, and reappraisals (which is just a fancy way of saying how you interpret and respond to situations).

• 🤝 The results showed that mindfulness can improve all three factors, making you more supportive and empathetic in your communication with others.

So, next time your friend needs a shoulder to cry on, try practicing some mindfulness beforehand. You might just surprise yourself with how supportive and understanding you can be! 🧘‍♀️🤝
