Journeying Together....
Attempting to walk the same path with an intimate partner can be one of the most challenging and rewarding things we do in life. In a conscious, informed relationship, we honor the individuality of the other, attempt to understand the dynamic we co-create together, and seek growth both individually and as a couple. Effective communication is essential to that ongoing growth. Entering into honest diaglogue with one another allows us to get our needs met, while also actively listening and attending to the needs of the other. Our ability to carry on a trusting dialogue can make all the difference between a healthy, vital relationship -- or one that languishes on the vine. Most of us have significant deficits in the skills mentioned above. Acquiring, improving, and implementing relational skills can benefit both you and the people around you immensely.
