Sweeping in the Tipi + Learning from Conflict
Why is so much of our focus at Leaning into Light on communication in relationships?
Because relationship is the core of life, and communication is the hardest part. We've learned what works well in relationships, we've collected tools for the inevitable tough times, and it makes us happy to share them!
Speaking of jewels for you, here's interview #2 in our five-part series on Exploring Relationships. This one's called Growing through Conflict (4 minutes of pow-pow-zap!).
If you missed the first interview, you can watch it here.
They're each about 5 minutes long. Hip-skip, hip-hop, that's zippy!
Where is the "glass half empty" in your primary relationship today? Meaning, whatever relationship is on your mind right now. It could be your spouse or other romantic partner, a sibling or parent, child or friend, or any other significant relationship. What are you longing for? Noticing and naming it brings you one step further to filling up your glass.
Oh, the charm of children. Yes that's my daughter mimicking my daily sweeping routine.
One night last week I wrote a piece called Sweeping in the Tipi: On Woman and Home, because in recent months I’ve wondered about the relationship between how a woman cherishes and tends to her home, and how we value women as a society.
Could it be that there is a noteworthy correlation between the undervaluing of women, and the undervalued art of tending to the beauty and order of a home?
And could it be that when women stand up for the value of home-tending, we move humanity forward in our return to being a woman-honoring species? Read on.
I hope you enjoy these little pops in your Inbox. They're meant to:
give you valuable tools for a more fulfilling life
add spark and depth to your day
make you feel loved
How's it working so far? As we approach our one year anniversary of actively sharing blog posts and workshops through Leaning into Light, I'd love to hear your feedback. Take a moment to email me a thought or two, wouldya?
Happy Wednesday!
