I am a licensed marriage and family therapist. What a privilege it is to work in people's lives where only few people are allowed to go. To deal with a person's psyche with compassion and sensitivity is my greatest joy. I especially enjoy the results found with couples using Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy.
This excercise is a great way to work through difficult issues in a relationship. So many times, we don't feel heard by our spouse because they are not listening to us. They are preparing their rebuttal to our statement instead of really hearing the full message. People don't listen because they fear that if they really listen, it will be misunderstood as agreement to what the other is saying.
If you let yourself think "this" way then you are going to suffer from anxiety, worry and maybe even panic. It is not what is happening out there that makes us feel anxious, but what we are telling ourselves about everything out there. One of the most important keys to living a happier, more effective and anxiety-free life is the fact that you are responsible for how you feel and how you think.
Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks those things for which we are responsible. Boundaries define who we are and who we are not. Physical boundaries help us determine who may touch us and under what circumstances. Mental boundaries give us the freedom to have our own thoughts and opinions.
Our deepest need is to belong and to be in relationship. We need to be connected. We were built for relationship. No man is an island. In raising our children, we want them to have a secure attachment to us. If children are raised in a home with secure attachments they feel loved and deserving of love.
