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?
