Hi Aasha,

Personally I find that when interacting with others offline, being as relaxed as possible and communicating in a spontaneous way whilst still maintaining awareness of what's happening, is best rather than consciously trying to control anything.

I do often tend to note my reactions and feelings within as they arise however, but it still doesn't happen 100% of the time, lol !

You might find this excerpt 'Compose your minds' helpful, its from Ajahn Sumedho's book " Don't Take Your Life Personally "

with kind wishes,
