Alright lovers, let’s get real…building healthy relationships can be a challenging task. It requires more than just love and commitment; it requires patience, dedication, and effort. With more breakups than makeups lately, it can feel kinda impossible! Where’s the secret manual when you need one?😅
At Elixr, we believe that relationships thrive when they’re based on unconditional love, safety, and acceptance. Who doesn’t want that??🥰
When you do your individual work first, you attract SOULMATE-status bonds, and when you lead with emotional safety and radical self-acceptance, you attract partners already vibrating on your wavelength😍
Here’s what we know works to build healthy relationships:
Heal the Past, Live in the Present 🩺
Many think they’re ready for wholesome relationships while still carrying unresolved wounds that sabotage intimacy. Do the courageous work of facing how painful memories of betrayals, criticism from family, or abuse still impact your sense of self-worth. This clears space to fully show up in healthy relationships!
Honor All Emotions, Not Just Positive Ones💭
Allowing ourselves to fully feel anger, sadness, grief, or fear without judgment cleanses stuck energy so we can return to growth. When you make space for things to organically unfold, the right bonds blossom before you know it🌸
Commit to Transparent Communication🗣
Having awkward convos feels scary, but speaking your truth with empathy levels relationships up FAST! Listen without judging and validate each other’s experiences first. This builds trust and intimacy quicker than you’d think!
Stay Rooted in Self-Trust💪
Connecting to your core values, passions, and vision for life gives clarity when navigating relationships and setting boundaries. Following your inner compass keeps partnerships aligned! Trust us, it works.
Love without Expectations❤️
Too often, we unconsciously pressure our partners to match fantasy projections. Releasing demands around how relationships and intimacy “should” unfold allows more creative possibilities to emerge intuitively! Define love on your own terms.
Give Each Other Room to Grow 🌱
As a couple, commit to watering your shared garden while also fertilizing personal growth as individuals. Make weekly passion dates to kindle intimacy. But also follow separate interests that light you up so your relationship stays intriguing.
The bottom line? Building healthy relationships requires prioritizing self-care first. Then you’ll be equipped with the emotional intelligence required for healthy, long-term love!✨
