A Few Words about Relationships

Wednesday, May 15, 2013 - 10:15 PM - Day 53 of Life Coaching Blog

Thinking about relationships today...
An ever-changing aspect of life that is incredibly fulfilling at the same time.


Helpful Tips for Improving Relationships:

1. Pretend that every being you come across throughout your day was sent to you for a helpful reason. What reason? To learn, to grow and to progress in our life. Be open to the fact that others can improve your existence if you are aware of what they are offering you - positive or negative. This will prevent aversion to others and help improve all relationships in your life.

2. When you find yourself thinking about those in your life who you are experiencing dissonance with, or are unable to see anymore, shift your attention to the NOW. Focus your attention on those who come into your space in the present. Honor everyone who you come in contact with in present reality. The other relationships are only in your mind at this moment, and they are draining your energy.

3. Use positive visualization and the law of attraction: If all relationships in your life were positive, fulfilling and enriching, what would that look like? How would you communicate with your spouse or significant other?  How would you relate to your family? Imagine yourself contacting and connecting with your friends. Picture positive interactions with professionals who assist you such as doctors, accountants, lawyers or teachers. How would you act toward your coworkers? How about neighbors, acquaintances, fellow church members or other students in your class? Picture these interactions being fulfilling and enriching. Also, don’t forget strangers - how would you act toward people you do not know? Lastly, imagine your non-human relationships with pets, wildlife and nature. How do you imagine honoring them? Each day imagine all your relationships being perfect for that day.

Sleep well,
