30: Healthy Communication
In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will explore four simple and practical tips of what healthy communication is, some examples of healthy communication, and how implementing these tips will foster growth in your relationship with the children and teens in your life.
1. Active Listening
2. Clear and Respectful Language
3. Expressing Feelings Using “I” Statements
4. Regular Check-Ins
Implementing these tips is like building a bridge between you and your child or teen, with each principle acting as a sturdy support beam. Just as a well-constructed bridge provides a safe and reliable passage, healthy communication creates a strong and supportive pathway that allows for deeper emotional connections and mutual understanding, ensuring a smooth journey together through life’s challenges.
