Making Marriage Work: Part 3
Discover How to Heal Your Relationship
Do you often feel like a victim in your relationship? Learn how shifting your focus from blaming your partner to understanding yourself can set you on the path to healing.
Understanding the Six Steps of Inner Bonding
In Part 2 of this series, we introduced the Six Steps of Inner Bonding:
1. Willingness
2. Choosing the Intent to Learn
3. Dialoguing with Your Feelings
4. Communicating with Your Higher Power
5. Taking Loving Action
6. Evaluating the Action
Previously, we explored the importance of Step One: the willingness to feel and take responsibility for your emotions, steering away from protective or controlling behavior. Now, let's delve into Step Two: Choosing the Intent to Learn.
Embracing Personal Responsibility
Step Two involves exploring your own thoughts, beliefs, and behaviors that contribute to your pain. This requires accepting full responsibility for feelings like fear, anxiety, anger, rejection, or loneliness, rather than blaming your partner.
For instance, Joan feels abandoned because Justin works long hours. She responds by nagging and blaming him, but this only pushes him further away. Her anger and blame camouflage her real feelings, as she relies on Justin for her happiness and validation.
If Joan follows the Six Steps of Inner Bonding, she would start by acknowledging her feelings with compassion, akin to comforting a hurt child. Instead of blaming Justin, she'd move to Step Two, examining her own beliefs and actions that contribute to her pain. With guidance from her Higher Self, she can approach her situation with curiosity instead of judgment.
From Victimhood to Empowerment
By choosing to learn about herself in Step Two, Joan shifts from feeling like a victim to taking personal responsibility. This change profoundly impacts her relationship with Justin. When she stops trying to control him with anger or complaints, her energy transforms. Justin will sense this positive shift, even from afar.
This change in intention is crucial for healing troubled relationships. Focusing on your own growth and feelings, instead of trying to change your partner, can lead to significant improvements.
A Major Shift for Relationship Healing
Taking responsibility for your own emotions and moving away from controlling your partner is a transformative step. In upcoming Parts 4 and 5, we'll continue exploring the Six Steps, demonstrating how Joan uses these principles to heal her relationship with Justin.
