- Gossip is like personal “fake news,” often based on assumptions, not facts.
- It might feel nice at first, but it often causes regret and makes people distrust you.
- When you feel the urge to gossip, shift your attention and focus on being thankful for your life.
- A 10-minute meditation gives you time to think about past gossip and shift your focus to appreciating others instead.
- The goal is not to stop gossiping entirely, but to develop more awareness, kindness, and honesty.
