Where is the Grass Greener?
Not necessarily on the other side
Or with a different partner
Or with one who behaves differently
Loves differently
Parents differently
Has different expectations
Or handles money differently
The grass is greener where you water it.
What does watering the grass look like in relationships?
Being mindful
Pausing and being present
Noticing and being aware
Choosing with intention how you want to show up and proceed
Allowing imperfection and humanity in both of you
Showing grace and compassion for yourself and for others
Looking for what works
Seeing where you do have a connection
And how your partner does shows love
Even if you think it looks different than you think it should
From here it is easier to see a path forward.
Of course, you are more frustrated in your relationships right now
Pandemics put a lot of stress on relationships
It’s a great time to water the grass
And water it well.
If you want to stop feeling frustrated, resentful, irritated, out of control, and overwhelmed in your relationships --and your life-
Join me for Mindful Love.
And we are all on different paths in different relationships. Sometimes, even with all the watering and mindful love, your relationship is still not a healthy space for you. You can always choose to water different grass.
