Episode 10

Pick A Fight When They Want To Connect

We don’t shy away from the complexity that is human beings in this episode. Buckle in for an extended episode, we’ll dive deep into the science and into what relational skills will work. How can we take in things when they are good?  What does compassion have to do with calming my feelings? Can rage really be a bid for connection? We talk about many levels of the subconscious mind and how many ways we can answer this question.  We will share practices that will help you develop 2nd consciousness, how to track yourself as a practice and create a space for responsiveness instead of reactivity.  How to examine what might be going on in the depths of you and your partner. We can’t wait to dive deep with you on this one.
