If you are in a difficult relationship right now, particularly a love relationship, I implore you to do the best job you can in taking care of your own needs. Many long-term relationships are very stressful. In today’s times the many demands placed on our relationships can take their toll. Keeping good communication in your relationship can be challenging. I have found that a large problem in relationships are hurts that the couple or person have held on to without resolution over an extended period of time. Sometimes these hurts are just too deep for reconciliation. If you’re in a discouraging or frustrating relationship I encourage you to pay attention to your emotional, physical and spiritual needs. Reach out to other like-minded people for support. Find activities that you enjoy. Create a healthy spiritual life for yourself. If your relationship is not particularly supportive of your true essential self it is imperative that you find other means to find acceptance of this most vibrant part of you. The resolution to this relationship will come to you in time. While you are in the midst of this turmoil or difficulty take time to rejuvenate yourself in avenues that are available to you. Focus on the good that is available and not just on what is negative in your relationship. Focus on the positive friendships you have. Concentration on an activity you enjoy. Put energy into eating healthy and exercising. Remember the positive traits that are true about you. Try the best you can to create calm and wellbeing in the other areas of your life. Most importantly reach out for help and support.
