POWER WORDS

Power words are persuasive, descriptive words that trigger a positive or negative emotional response. They can make us feel scared, encouraged, aroused, angry, greedy, safe, or curious. The emotions we feel, the events we experience, and our ability to interact with other humans are all controlled by language. If we want more control, and more agency in our lives we can start with a greater understanding of the potential power in what we say to ourselves and others. So be careful about going too deep in the search for words meanings without having the added benefits of hearing tone, seeing facial expressions and interpreting body language. Be aware that the power of words works both ways — power in their utterance, and power in their ingestion. Don’t ignore the power of words. This power will play a perpetual role in your life. Our ability to find love and joy rely entirely on the frequency of those words being sought, expressed, received, and understood.
