ReSpeak is a Mindfulness Practice

Screen shot 2013-04-25 at 9.42.13 PMReSpeak allows you to listen to other people without getting defensive, realize they are only talking about themselves, and stop making compassion-less judgments of others.

ReSpeak allows you to speak with authority and clarity about your own experiences, to be in the present moment, and to more easily reveal yourself so you can better connect with others.

While using ReSpeak you constantly are reminding yourself that you are making your own meaning of everything you experience and thus, you have the power to choose how you want to respond in any given conversation.

ReSpeak is a daily mindfulness practice

ReSpeak brings you into the present moment, makes you the active agent in your life, minimizes social anxiety, and allows you to live a more fearless and spontaneous life.

This is our tenth anniversary sharing what was generously shared with us by John and Joyce Weir, the original creators of this work. They developed this model in 1960 and taught it to thousands of people over fifty years. They called their workshop a Differentiation Laboratory and the language they taught was called Percept. When we became one of the stewards of this work we re-branded it Reology and we called the language ReSpeak.

Now, after ten years, we are going to start referring to the language as ReSpeak. We are making this change for many reasons. First, it comes closer to honoring the name the Weirs used. Second, it accurately describes what the language is—it is a language used to communicate our perceptions of the world. And, finally, it is a more sophisticated name than ReSpeak, and since we want this work to be taken seriously, we think the new name will be helpful.
