  1. Recipe for domestic harmony. The following is a recipe for peace, establishing connection with mutual honor and respect, offering access to effective interpersonal relationships, communication, peace, and domestic harmony. The power and magic of “Yes and.” A sentence that begins with “Yes, and” is far stronger than the same sentence without “Yes, and.” In just two words, we’ve established a connection and communicated, “I’ve heard you.” "Yes and" gives the speaker space to hold back, choose their words wisely, and shape the course of our relationship. For instance, "Yes and when would be a good time for us to chat?" "Yes, and I understand your perspective. I want to hear more." " Yes, and how would this impact our budget?" And so on. In the space of just two words we’ve engaged our intelligence; we’ve moved from reacting to responding. We need not go down the rabbit hole any longer than it takes to say, “Yes, and.”

  2. PS “Yes and” can function as an emergency “fire extinguisher” when confronted with someone who has “anger management issues.” When they approach us angry with the intention of voicing anger, at or toward us, we get a chance to put on the brakes or even stop the anger in roughly five. "Yeses." We don't get defensive; we don't try to justify. (This only escalates their anger.) When confronted by anger, we continue to "Yes-sing." Give it a try; you'll enjoy it. I invite us to replicate, paste, and share for free the wonder of "Yes, and" Visit https://www.marriageandcommunication.com/recipe-for-domestic-harmony/ to read more.
