Relationships raise our positive emotions 😊 and allow us to become calmer 🧘♀️ and more self-connected 🤝. There are many positive emotional benefits from relationships. We enjoy being heard 👂, being understood 🤗, and being seen for who we are 👀. We also get a big boost from the physical aspects of a relationship 💕.
There are many complexities in relationships that we are not aware of 🤔, that can take away from the positive emotions in a relationship 😔 and plunge the relationship into a strongly negative experience with lots of confusion and turmoil 💥😢. In these situations, we quickly discover the limitations of our understandings and skills 🤷♂️. Commonly this is characterized as "this person doesn't make sense to me" 🤷♀️.
In this session, we will look to understand what is going on here 🧐 and to build our skills so we are better placed to work with the realities of how complex people can be 🛠️.
Understanding our own and others' feelings 💓 and needs as well as our unconscious expectations will bring greater peace ✌️ to ourselves and our relationships 🕊️. We will also build some skills to support this aim 🔑.
