All of these techniques that were geared towards the meditation process can also be used in other parts of your life as well. Fractionation, which is breaking down down bigger issues into smaller ones, can be used with practically anything in your life. For example I use a technique like this when working on big projects for school. I will break down the big project into smaller tasks which are easier to accomplish. This helps me stay organized without getting too stressed. Framing, asking questions that are unbiased, can help relationships not lead to issues. A good amount of time people get angry because people ask questions that are making an assumption. Having an unbiased look and position on issues will help all relationships, new and old. Reframing, taking negative comments and turning them to a position differently from their own, is an amazing skill to have. This can be used with your self talk and with other people. You can step back from your feelings and try to think in a different position. This is difficult to do, but can help you get a better understanding of any situation. It also can help with other people by being able to help others see different sides of situations as well. And lastly common ground is characteristics that parties share as an agreement. This is used in everyday life when people make friends. They find a common ground then grow off of that.
These techniques can help any situation if used correctly and will lead to a better outcome for all parties.
