The Unforeseen Consequences of Our Speech: How What We Say Can Reverberate In Ways We Don’t Intend
Palmetto Publishing Announces Recent Self-Help Release of OUR WORDS MATTER
Our Words Matter: Consequences of Our Words
Charleston, SC, Oct. 18, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Based in research and personal clinical experience, Dr. Dee Stern introduces readers to the profound effect words can have, especially on the grieving and bereaved, in her new book Our Words Matter: Consequences of Our Words.
“Today, no one seems to care about what they say to anyone … not even to the bereaved,” said Dr. Stern. “This book challenges people to think before they speak and take responsibility for their words.”
Readers will come to understand, through an insightful series of essays, how to foster more meaningful and empathetic interactions through better communication. As Dr. Stern describes, words have the power to build bridges to bring people together or walls to break them apart. They can break spirits or uplift them. They can be salve to a wound—or salt.
“It is time to take responsibility for our words and to think before we speak. Even if someone may forget the words you said to them, they will never forget how you made them feel.”
Our Words Matter: Consequences of Our Words is available for purchase online at Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble.com.
