Heart-Based Feeling: Why It Matters Now

• Heart-based feeling and communication has a power to deepen relationships in midlife. Not only with ourselves but, with others.
• Contrast “surface talk” (logistics, day-to-day frustrations) with “heart talk” (vulnerabilities, dreams, values).

Practical Tools and How-Tos
Use “I feel” statements with a loved one this week, or set aside 10 minutes for a heart-to-heart.

Use reflective listening or simply asking someone, “What’s most important to you right now?”

Invitation to Reflect and Experiment
Notice where you feel stuck or disconnected, and pick one small action to move toward greater freedom or closeness.
