No relationship is perfect.
Over the years, with the influence of many books, movies or TV shows, many people have started developing a distorted view of what a romantic relationship should be like. The reason why many relationships are failing is that the people in the relationship don’t work on their problems together.
Every relationship is different and faces its own unique problems. For example, some couples often complain of having trust issues, which lead to frequent arguments and fights. Many others complain that they feel like there is a power imbalance in their relationship, which leads to misunderstandings and feelings of resentment.
For some couples, the problem is not emotional. There are often financial disagreements, especially when you and your partner have different spending and saving habits. Apart from that, other factors like distance and stressful work lives can also lead to misunderstandings and miscommunication, which can leave you feeling like your needs are unmet.
While you cannot have a perfect relationship, you can build healthier patterns within your relationship. In this blog, we’re going to explore some healthy relationship patterns.
3 Common Practices to Adopt for a Healthy Relationship
1. Practise Open Communication
When it comes to developing healthy relationship patterns, practising open communication should be the first thing on your list. This is one of the most basic, yet important, practices to adopt right away. Set aside dedicated time for talking to your partner about your thoughts, feelings and concerns.
When you are communicating with your partner, it is also important to actively listen to what they are saying. Give them the chance to speak about what’s on their mind and then listen without interrupting. Try to understand their perspective and maintain empathy for them. Do not blame or attack your partner, instead, express your feelings with honesty and have a transparent discussion.
2. Work on Building Trust
No relationship will last without trust. Trusting your partner is a crucial element of being in a relationship. If you are afraid that your partner is not honest with you, this could lead to feelings of anger and resentment. This is why it is important to build trust within a relationship.
Be honest with each other and keep your promises. Follow through on your commitments and obligations and be there for each other consistently. Provide emotional support to each other and encourage each other during tough times.
3. Maintain Independence
It is essential to maintain independence in a relationship. While you and your partner are together, it is also important to have your own life outside the relationship. Encourage your partner to pursue their own personal interests and hobbies. Meet new people and maintain friendships that are within separate groups of networks.
Moreover, it also helps to have some alone time to recharge and maintain your sense of self. Respect each other’s personal, physical and emotional space and set healthy boundaries. By maintaining independence, you can avoid becoming too dependent on each other, which, in turn, will significantly strengthen your relationship.
How Hypnotherapy Can Help
Hypnotherapy is an age-old technique that can help you identify your inner blocks. It helps you delve deeper into yourself to explore your subconscious so that you can better understand how to achieve your goals.
When it comes to relationship problems, you will often be dealing with feelings of anger, resentment, blame and hurt. Sometimes, when misunderstandings are not worked out, you can feel lonely in a relationship and may feel like your partner does not understand you. However, hypnotherapy can help you build a healthy relationship.
To develop healthy relationship patterns, you will need to access the deeper parts of your mind and identify where your anger, hurt or blame is stemming from. In my sessions, I will work with you and your partner to help you explore your feelings and gain better clarity into why you react the way you do.
