By internalizing that responding with kindness is strength, not weakness.
By giving up the notion that someone has to “win” or that anyone loses by saying “you are right”, “I am sorry”, or “I can do better.”
By resolving to listen with curiosity rather than defensiveness.
What do people aim for when they meditate, and how do they do it properly?
By keeping in mind it’s OK to have different opinions and different experiences, and they both matter in equal measure.
By taking turns talking.
By learning to validate what the other is feeling. “I can absolutely see why you feel this way.”
Can you share a picture of your favorite outfit and explain why you love it?
By deciding to stop with the criticism and the nagging and instead say thank you for everything you do for me. Thank you for loving me.
By wanting to truly understand each other, despite feeling unheard.
