Finding My Spiritual Self

I am currently looking to enhance my self spiritually. I feel that I am lacking the compassion and humanity I once had. I think that this is due to many things that result to my own self-hatred and becoming reclusive. But now I am in a state of mind that I want to embrace my life and get in touch my my humanity by strengthening my faith and helping people in need, extending myself, and finding a way to love myself. I have begun listening to meditation and nature sounds podcasts on itunes to try to learn how to clear my mind and find clarity so that I can study increase my biblical knowledge and research ways to help people in my community. I know this journey will be hard but I want to make a conscious decision to change, be happy, be healthy, be compassionate, be loving, and to be open and receptive of people that need me. I look to my church to learn more and do better.

10 Ways to Encourage your Partner to Attend Couples Counseling

I have learned over the years that a relationship is about compromise and learning about the person I am with. Through counseling I learned that men and women really do have a different way of communicating needs, wants, and love. I learned that my husband showed his way of thinking of me or that he loved me by keeping up the mechanics on the vehicle or doing things I asked him, especially if he knows I don't like doing them myself. We decided to go to counseling before we got married and that short amount of time in therapy still helps us today. I encourage others to seek counseling to enhance or mend a broken relationship if it's not too far gone. I know how hard it is to get your significant other to participate in something like counseling because they don't believe in it or don't feel it will help. I came across this article, 10 Ways to Encourage your Partner to Attend Couples Counseling, that gives tips on how to get your spouse or significant other to at least try therapy.
