At our core we are social beings, needing others to have what adds up to a life well lived. so we build relationships, work to sustain them and help them evolve. thats at the root of the work I do as a therapist. These include the relationship to a significant other or others, to our work or what we might call our career, and to the greater community that includes the culture around us and the world we live in. Of course, there is one more relationship that matters, one that informs the others - the relationship to yourself, with all the complexities that arise from the thinking, our emotions and our lived experiences. I call my approach RelationAct. And I like to say that for us social animals - "It's All Relational."
"Relating This" is a place to explore how we relate with ourselves, to others and to the wider world. It gets at the challenges that come up, the ways to improve be more engaged in the evolution of our mind... the connections with people who matter and, lastly, with our culture and society. I'll convey things from my own point-of-view and hope that it sparks something in you, whether it might resonate, make you think or solidify your own think. And I hope that you'd be willing to join in with these posts and consider subscribing.
