Relationships & The Emotional Hierarchy
|
The first step to turning an unhealthy relationship into a healthy one is taking care of yourself. PERSPECTIVE SHIFTSI recently shared a story on threads about my husband and I in couples counseling. In the story, I talked about how I thought I had our problem all figured out but I was wrong. Something I didn't expect from sharing that story, was how many people would commend me for admitting my fault and taking accountability. I realized what a strength it is to admit being wrong and how many people benefit from witnessing it. As I worked through issues with my husband, I was able to learn and grow, it greatly improved our relationship. Experiencing being wrong in a safe way helped me build trust in releasing that vulnerability more often. It's important to have safe people around you to explore your own growth and emotional evolutions. REFLECT: Do you feel safe admitting you're wrong? Will you avoid admitting you're wrong even when you know you are, because it doesn't feel safe or beneficial to do so? BEHAVIOR SHIFTSWe all come from our childhoods. As my husband and I went through counseling, we realized how much of our communication and perspective came from our childhoods. Much of our expectations and standards were shaped by our families. Working toward better communication and a more peaceful relationship meant releasing the conditioning and learning new ways to interact. TRY: Consider ways you communicate or expectations you have in relationships with friends, family members, or a partner and how they may have come from your childhood, then think about whether this behavior serves you well or if you want to release it.

Reader, I know you're super busy and probably stressed so I'll keep this short. Rituals are simply practices or behaviors that allow us to shift our energy, intentionally. You may already have rituals present in your life; putting on your sunglasses and turning on the radio when you're getting ready to drive. This practice helps you get into driving mode. Or maybe when you wake up everyday, you go into the bathroom and wash your face, brush your hair, and put on deodorant. This is a waking...
Hey Reader, How are you? How are you really doing? I know this is a stressful time of year. And on top of the stress, this time is really emotionally charged, lots of expectations, and it can be hard to feel centered. During these high-pressure seasons, I never can seem to calm all the way down. It's like a constant and ongoing buzz of what I may forget, mess up, or miss out on. Can you relate? This happens to so many people, especially women, so I wanted to share with you my top 3 tips to...
