It’s interesting, isn’t it, how things are always changing, shifting, and growing…and rarely in predictable ways. So, my strategy has always been to see change as A: inevitable (it makes me less likely to resist) and B: an opportunity to powerfully create something even more satisfying and fulfilling (hmmmm, kind of exciting).
So with the changing of the seasons, I invite you to take a look at what changes you’d like to incorporate into your life. And if it’s in the
area of relationships, what new, exciting practices do you want to bring to the table? Well, here’s a thought…how about Honesty and
Communication. Two examples of things we could almost always improve upon. I’m not suggesting that we don’t have this in our present relationships, it’s just that there are layers and levels of each. It may be time to peel back some layers in order to take it to the next level. And you just may be surprised to find what an aphrodisiac honesty and communication can be.
So like a game, I invite you to let down your guard. Share something truthful and vulnerable about yourself (your thoughts, your feelings, your preferences) with your partner. See how disclosure can make you feel closer.
Lainie, I love the concept of honesty as aphrodisiac (ok I had to copy and paste that from where you said it cuz apparently I don’t know how the hell to spell that word! Little red underlines rock for tapping us on the shoulder!
I remember being totally honest on a first date a few years ago when the thing I was fessin’ up to having been in my past experience was the exact thing that the guy was sayin’ he was just NOT that into … and for the record, I’m not into it either. But there it was.
Shockingly we went on to date for a year and a half after that. So brutal honest does NOT have the mindnumbingly negative repercussions one might think!
Go honesty!
