Right Speech is one of the steps on the Noble Eightfold Path in Buddhism, but this practice should be accessible to everybody.

In this episode, I read excerpts from the Pali Canon pertaining to Right Speech. I try to elucidate effective communication strategies in situations where two people cannot agree on what is truth.

I also connect the practice of Right Speech to the throat chakra within the Reiki system. Being "in the closet" or unable to speak one's truth will lead to throat chakra imbalances, and that manifests as trouble with speech, mouth and jaw pain, or even neck pain!
