Jonathan as listeners of Healing From Within are well aware my guests
and I share intimate personal and insightful stories that help us pay
more attention to our thoughts and actions as we begin to see past the
physical constraints some misbeliefs, habits and patterns, so engrained
in our functioning that may cause pain and dysfunction. It appears that
when we realize our dual nature as both spiritual and physical beings
and use the right tools, understandings and lifestyle, we can find
improved relationships, peace love and success in joyful living.
In today’s episode Jonathan Robinson psychologist and author of 12 books
has made numerous appearance on the Oprah show and has articles in USA
today Newsweek and The Los Angeles Times and co-hosts the podcast
“Awareness Explorers” states that everyone really wants care,
understanding and empathy, in their relationship, however, the Four
Culprits or the Four Horseman of the Relationship
Apocalypse..Denigration Denial Dismissal and Distraction separate us
from having the best interaction with our partners and indeed all
people. We will discover some of the 30 simple easy to implement
practical communication strategies to dissipate the tension create more
connection and ramp up the love even suggesting ways to get resistant
partners to participate.
Jonathan tell us that he wrote Communication Miracles for Couples twenty
years ago and the nature of life and relationships has changed a lot
since then. No one has a computer from 20 years ago because technology
has advanced so much in the past two decades. In a similar way people
need to update their methods of communication to keep up with the
changing times. A lot of books on communication and relationships offer
good ideas and theories but little in the way of simple powerful and
precise methods. MORE LOVE Less Conflict offers good ideas and easy
practical techniques that lead to more love trust and connection. Any
person using these methods should be able to consistently create
communication miracles in their own lives.
Jonathan tells us what might be seen as a communication miracle. A
communication miracle might be when you find yourself resisting using
the exercises and skills in this book because a part of you wants to
argue, be right, or play the victim and then you decide to use these
exercises and give up self-righteousness, blaming and victimhood. Giving
these things up is indeed hard, but being lost in blame and feeling
separate from your wife is even harder and more painful. By overcoming
resistance to these techniques for better communication and making then
into a ritual that you call on often, you can have a better result and
relationship more of the time engaging in conversations and
participating in actions that align to your growth and positivity and
add to the wellbeing of your relationship as well. For this to happen,
you must be a keen observer waiting before acting on any impulse and
learning to for the most part be proactive not reactive. These acquired
skills need you to be patient non-judgmental and open to all
possibilities-not closed minded.
