Relationship Recommendations During Covid-19
We all need relationship recommendations from time to time. In this current pandemic, there are such intense pressures on relationships for couples who are trying to figure out how to get along and thrive during Covid-19, or just survive in some cases. Most couples have never had to experience such a high degree of close proximity for an extended amount of time like we are needing to manage right now. Add in the economic stress and fear of physical safety, and it is no surprise that more couples are reaching out for support and guidance than any other time in history.
Please remind yourself and each other that this is temporary, you need each other and you really do love each other, even if none of the above feel true at this moment. I encourage you to trust your history, and that you have endured difficult challenges before and are still together. And most of all, PLEASE BE GENTLE WITH YOURSELF AND YOUR PARTNER! This is an incredibly stressful time in each and every one of our lives. We need to feel safe while navigating this unique global situation. Trust your love, connection and your foundation as your guides and collective resources. Please be gentle with each other, and yourself. Ask for help if you need it.

Conflict Resolution Workshop – Individuals & Couples!
I am thrilled to be offering a three-session Conflict Resolution Workshop at Kindred Community Acupuncture in Rhode Island on the border of Pawtucket and Providence!

I have scheduled the dates two weeks apart so that all participants have time to practice their new skills in the real world and return to share experiences, challenges and questions.

Rules for fair fighting. It sounds like an oxymoron. If you take a minute to reflect, most of us suck when it comes to arguing and fighting with the people we love. I was not talking about your partner, I'm talking about you. Me too. Of all the things that we are taught by our families, friends, schools, and culture, it is rare that children are well-trained in how to manage conflict in a meaningful and productive way. Let's explore one of the many sets of rules for fair fighting in relationships together.

... Listen To Their Story – Ex-CIA Undercover Officer
The video below is titled "Former Undercover CIA Officer Talks War And Peace". While I was listening and watching, what was loudest to me is how this applies to everyday life, not just foreign wars. What if we listen to their story as a practice we all keep when trying to resolve conflicts with partners, lovers, friends, family, neighbors and co-workers?
