Signs I Am Healing In My Relationships

Signs I Am Healing In My Relationships I am less triggered, and when I am triggered, I work through it I find it easier to put myself in the other person’s shoes and be compassionate without abandoning myself I have clearer, healthier boundaries My self-worth is no longer tied to how much I do for others I know and can communicate my needs gently I don’t hold grudges for as long as I used to I find it easier to validate my partner’s feelings and know I don’t have to agree with them I find it easier to trust and feel safe in relationships My relationships are interdependent, not co-dependent I can self-soothe I find myself playing fewer games in my relationships I know I am loveable even if this is not being shown to me by others I experience more frequent, successful repairs

Ram Dass says that relationships are one of the most challenging forms of yoga. When he says this, he is talking about the way you meet in an intimate relationship. You will see all of the parts of self when in a relationship, so there is a lot of opportunity for healing.

“I think in relationships, you create an environment with your own work on yourself which you offer to another human being to use to grow in the way they need to grow. You keep working – you become the soil – moist and soft and receptive so the person can grow the way they need to grow, because how do you know how they should grow.” – Ram Dass

Healing is most noticeable in the small moments. It is in the moment when instead of feeling judged, you feel compassion for the other person. It is in the successful repair after an argument.

What else have you noticed as you are healing in your relationships?
