“I’m just being honest” is a poor excuse for being rude. Candor is being forthcoming in what you say. Respect is being considerate in how you say it. Being direct with the content of your feedback doesn’t prevent you from being thoughtful about the best way to deliver it.

During moments of meditative silence, what do you say to yourself when the loud/critical/doubting voice inside your head conjures negative thoughts or emotions? The experts have one primary go-to phrase and that’s “Let it be.” In other words, when you let something be, it just is. You don’t have to do anything to it or to yourself.
