What do you think when you hear the word “relationship”? Generally speaking, people think about marriage or an emotional connection with another person. Interestingly…
Relationship is simply defined as connection, association or involvement.
We experience relationships at many levels, with many people in the course of one day. However, we often give little thought to how healthy those relationships are. Here are some places you may experience relationships:
- Work
- Home
- Family gatherings
- Fitness center
- Social groups
- School
- Neighborhood
- Place of worship
- Children’s events and activities
After thinking through your connections, you may discover some are stressful, unhealthy, one-sided, or even on the verge of ending. As can be seen, we are continually in relationship, at some level. For this reason, it may be beneficial to personally understand relationship dynamics and explore ways to improve your relationships.
Relationships involve:
- Your attitude
- Good listening
- Healthy boundaries
- Conflict management
- And sometimes…apologizing
Clients can benefit from taking time to explore these concepts, as well as look deeper into their many relationships.
