Whatever words we utter should be chosen with care for people will hear them and be influenced by them for good or ill. Buddha
- “We need to talk.”
- “Why, we’ll fight?”
- “Just listen!”
Do any of the above sound familiar? Maybe you could add to the list? A lot of people come to my office saying they have a communication problem. They want to know their partner. They want to feel connected and loved.
Good communication means that you have a free flowing stream of shared experiences, feelings and information. In healthy relationships the best and the worse can be shared, accepted, and understood leaving behind a sense of being known, accepted and loved.
Healthy communication and emotional intimacy thrive in an atmosphere of trust and compassion. Remember,
Your partner moves
toward > pleasure and
away from < pain.
The person you love will
only want to talk
