Right Speech
Joel Sansho Benton, Senior Lay Student

Senior lay student Sansho asks: How do we practice Right Speech, and how do we practice mindfulness in our everyday language? We use language all the time, often reacting to circumstances without much thought or reflection about how our words are landing. So how can we make the switch and use language as a valuable tool which can express compassion, and not create harm, despite our conditioning?
