Reflection on Module 2 - Interpersonal Peace

I’ve learned that good and effective communication is essential for any healthy relationship. And being totally present, mindful, loving speech, compassionate and deep listening are keys in the art of communication.

"Beginning A New" is a practice from Plum Village that help revitalize relationships and reconciliation, which I found very powerful, magic and profound. The first and foremost important part in that is the step of "watering flowers", which is recognizing the beauty in the others and expressing it with gratitude to our partner. It is like seeing the best version in the others, appreciating all the good things that they have done for us. It is sincere praise of the others. Through "watering flowers", we awake the best in others as well as nurture the beauty inside us.
