What Gaslighting Looks Like ☮💙🖤💜🕯

May you grow still enough to hear the small noises earth makes in preparing for the long sleep of winter, so that you yourself may grow calm and grounded deep within.

May you grow still enough to hear the trickling of water seeping into the ground, so that your soul may be softened and healed, and guided in its flow.

May you grow still enough to hear the splintering of starlight in the winter sky and the roar at earth's fiery core.

May you grow still enough to hear the stir of a single snowflake in the air, so that your inner silence may turn into hushed expectation.
~ Brother David Steindl-Rast

How do you handle stonewalling in your relationship?

Stonewalling sometimes occurs when couples are experiencing conflict. When one or both partners feel emotionally flooded, they may shut down and withdraw from the interaction. Flooding is often accompanied by increased heart rate, the release of stress hormones into the bloodstream, and even a fight-or-flight response.

When this happens, it's hard to find common ground and have dialogue where both parties feel heard.

Thankfully, there’s help! The antidote to stonewalling is to practice self-soothing. When you feel your body starting to build the wall, that’s the time to pause. Walk away from the conversation (with a verbalized plan to return) and give yourself a breather for at least 20 minutes. These steps can help you shift conflict conservations into productive dialogue with your loved one.

S*x is more than just physical intimacy. Physical intimacy can be non-s*xual. S*xual needs are no less important than emotional needs for relationships in which at least one partner needs s*xual bonding.

Either partner may be behaving in ways which block emotional and/or s*xual bonding, but that does not discount the strong need for both . Working on the s*xual part of the relationship is as important as working on the emotional part.

I did a live interview (on my grid) with Dr Laurie Watson, s*x therapist, which discusses the s*x cycle between couples and it’s relationship to their emotional cycle. Laurie is co-host of the @foreplay_radios*xtherapy podcast which is great. I trust their content explicitly as both hosts are therapists who do the same type of attachment work as I do.
