“We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.” Anaïs Nin

Relationships with our parents, partner/spouse, child or loved ones can be the most rewarding aspects of our lives. When you hold a special place for someone and have shared countless moments of joy, a cycle of arguments or fights with your significant other, can leave you feeling bitter, upset, fed up and frustrated thus impacting your health and wellbeing. The question is was it necessary? and what can we do to best deal with these situations without ruining our relationship.

Personality differences are inevitable, and what makes us unique as individuals can result in disagreements and conflicts during our relationship. When these disagreements are not properly understood and managed emotionally, trivial exchanges can stir into full-on battles, and possibly end what we’ve spent months or years to build.

Transformational coaching focuses on establishing a good relationship with the self as one can only see the magnificence in the other person when they are in touch with their own. That’s where the journey of self discovery begins. By facing our loved ones with greater awareness and a genuine desire for understanding, I believe that we hold the key to wellness in these special relationships.

Benefits of transformational coaching in building and improving relationships.

Better understanding and bonding: Raised self awareness leads to greater understanding of the needs of others and puts you in a better to position to respond effectively to their mood swings.

Greater Resilience:With better understanding of the self you are able to let go of dependencies and bounce back and cope with change during or after a relationship breakdown.

Coping with change: Caring for a family member with a terminal illness or an addiction can be very challenging. Understand how your state of mind influences your wellbeing and how it can be helpful in creating the right atmosphere for your loved ones to recover.

Improved Parenting: Happy parents lead to happy children. Know more about how your thinking influences your interactions with children and their overall performance and wellbeing.
