Just because a condition does not have a physical manifestation does not mean it is any less serious. via ATTN: Video

"Discomfort is the price of admission to a meaningful life."

It was great sharing in the EFT Summit in San Diego last week. I attended several great workshops and presentations on attachment, working with shame, spirituality, healing affairs, and more. Sue Johnson, Gabor Mate, and others ended the conference with a lively panel. So good!

It is important to nurture the connection in our relationship. Our connection can shape how we interpret the actions of our partner--positively or negatively. By creating connection and fostering it we can decrease the impact of conflict and increase the experience of closeness.

How you start a disagreement with your partner is often indicative of how the conversation will go and end. Take a few deep breaths and think through how you want the conversation to go. You can't control how they will respond, but you can influence them.

Take your partner out and deepen your connection--whether you have been together for 5 months, 5 years, or 5 decades there is always room for getting to know each other better.

Something powerful happens when you allow someone into your world and the two of you process through your emotions.

Ruptures will happen--so don't waste them--repair them.
