Improve Your Relationships

Are you able to communicate effectively with your partner? Do you feel heard and understood? Is every word you say misinterpreted or twisted into something very different from what you are trying to say? Are you happy and content? Is your relationship fulfilling for everybody involved?

Relationships are not always easy and can take a lot of work. People come from different backgrounds and upbringing, have different values, beliefs and goals and are often looking for different things in a relationship. Nobody is capable of reading their partner’s mind, so communication becomes essential for development and maintenance of a healthy relationship. Love can be expressed and received in many different ways and it is important for us to learn the way our partner receives love in order to be aware of the way our behaviors affect them. Learning effective communication strategies that can assist you in expressing yourself clearly and asking for what you want and need while avoiding arguments, miscommunication and fights is crucial in developing and maintaining a healthy relationship.
