A Complete Guide to Healthy Communication

BESIKTAS, Turkey - Feb. 20, 2018 - PRLog -- If we simply look at its definition, communication is the transfer of emotion or thoughts of a person to another the person/people in a written, verbal or visual way. When we consider communication as dealing, we face different difficulties based on listening and the power of expression during communicating.

The fact that undoubtedly lies in the problems that are faced in the communication between two people, is one of parties is not a good listener. If, the parties do not allow the other to transfer his or her own thoughts, interrupt and constantly attempt to explain their own thoughts during communication, it will not be possible to perform this communication a healthy manner. Most of us do not listen or pretend to listen when someone is telling something. However, someone who realizes that he is not heard, feels bad as if he is affronted and comprehends that he is the one that unilaterally strives to maintain the communication. One of the listening habits that put communication at risk is listening snidely as we commonly experience. This kind of listening tendency is arisen from the requirement for attack or defense. It is a listening habit based on emotions and often refers to prejudice and generalizations. Another habit of listening, which is based on emotions, is obsessive listening. It is difficult to get results from communication if one of the parties tends to listen crankily. When you focus on only certain words or phrases, the communication breaks down. Again, we listen by choosing a listening habit that many of us frequently refer to our daily life. Selective listening is an important necessity of professional life. It exhausts the mind because it requires an effort to select the data that we will use later but it is functional. The listening habit that allows a healthy communication is to listen with empathy. Based on this listening habit, it deserves to be heard if it does not harm to any person and with due regard takes place in the exchange of information, which we call communication. There are a few important issues about what should be considered when listening a person. First, you should gain the habit of listening with empathy that we emphasize before for a healthy communication. You should respect to the person if you expect the same during communication. Direct your attention to the person and do not interrupt eye contact unless it is necessary when communicating with a person. You may be distracted because you will be open to the signals from the surrounding when you are looking at other directions. The person feels that you are actively listening if you show that you are interested in what he or she is talking about with your face, your facial expressions, mimes, and your approval with slight head movements. You may take notes if it is needed, taking notes is especially eases selective listening however you should be aware of behaviors such as playing with your pen. Asking question also points out your interest to the subject; do not hesitate to ask questions however pay attention not to interrupt the person when it is not convenient to ask questions.

You may be a good listener, however if the people are not good listeners, you may go through troubled moments when it is your turn. When you need to communicate with someone who is having difficulty in listening, a few points that you consider will facilitate to communicate with that person. First, your parlance, expression can be interesting and occasionally humorous if the atmosphere is available. If you have information about the subject that you are talking about, it would be useful to share it. If you occasionally lower your tone, the person will be able to direct his or her attention to you to hear what you say without noticing. However, despite all this, if the person will have difficulty in listening you and you feel this, it will not be appropriate to warn directly because it can be offending. Instead of this, if you address him or her by name, it may be possible to take his or her attention again in your speech. In such situations, it is not a good way of communicating to ask snap questions to the person, however asking confirmation question to direct his or her attention to you. All these little tips can significantly protect you from the troubles you may occasionally face during communication. A healthy communication starts by showing respect to the other person and making this a principle, not rushing to have the turn.... It is also necessary to listen what is told as much as speaking, conveying our thoughts, feelings and knowledge. We must not forget that although the shared and described information is valuable, important and even vital, it literally evaporates, vanishes and loses value unless the person listen it. Therefore, if we adopt and adapt the basic principles of the communication, mentioned above and the factors that makes us a good listener and ensures that we are heard by others, to our communication style as an individual of society, we progress to become a society that can establish more healthy communications and relationships.
