Relationships
Remember Mindfulness – breathe slowly Relationships Self-discovery and interpersonal skills can be learnt in many ways. Most addicted people fail to learn these skills naturally because their addiction takes over. They are often advised to start by building a relationship with an animal. With animals present, the interaction is a metaphor. People’s everyday struggles with themselves and other human relationships are replicated. Different behaviours – trusting, asking for help, showing assertiveness and respect are important life skills that can be practised. Do I recognise the need to practise interpersonal skills before embarking on serious relationships?
Love instead of selfishness, connection instead of escapism, acceptance instead of perfectionism. These are some of the attitudes that I need to adjust to. I must put in the work because they won’t just happen by themselves. My relationships need to be compatible with my own values and principles, so it is in my best interests to make them right. I must learn to trust others, to ask for help when in need and to give to others when asked.
