Your relationship with your own "self" is the most important relationship you will ever have in your lifetime.
Dear Friends,
February is always an interesting month as we have moved completely out of the winter holiday season and back into our routines. Some of you made resolutions for the year and are keeping up with them. Others may have had a harder time reaching their goals. If you are part of the latter group, it is important not to be hard on yourself if you have lost track of a goal you wanted to reach. Spending time in quiet contemplation can bring insight and new ideas about how to get back on track again and in tune with your true self.
During February we will be taking a closer look at relationships, including the relationship you have with yourself. Focusing on relationships seemed a good fit for the month in which Valentine's Day resides. This day can bring up many issues for people about love—finding love, hanging onto love, love in the process of change. I think it is also important to look at the most important relationship of all—the one you have with yourself.
Often when we think of being in a relationship, we think of romantic love, but in truth, anybody we spend time with brings us into relationship with that person. In our day-to-day life we may find our self in relationship with coworkers, friends, family members, teachers, our children, the check-out lady at the grocery store, our neighbors, and, of course, ourselves. Your relationship with your own "self" is above all, the most important relationship you will ever have in your lifetime, but how we come to a place of symbiosis with our self is where so many people get stuck. Interestingly, it is in our relations with other people that we learn the most about ourselves, and it is safe to say that each person we meet gives us opportunities for growth and learning. Our relationships act as mirrors, reflecting back to us what we must see, many times something we don't want to see.
Over the next four Mondays, we will be exploring relationships further and how to navigate all kinds of relationships, including partnership with another. Additionally here are a few of our online courses about relationships if you are ready to make change in this area of your life. Wrapping up in a blanket and taking a course can be a great way to spend a cold winter's day.
