Healthy relationships are built on mutual respect. Validating and valuing someone’s feelings, even if you don’t understand them, goes a long way in establishing trust and deepening connection.
A Balanced Relationship
In a balanced relationship, both people are able to maintain their individuality and have their needs met. They share mutual respect and strive to support one another during challenges, as well as accomplishments.
Boundaries Protect Your Identity & Choices
When you set boundaries in your relationships, you are protecting your identity, dreams, fears, and limits. Healthy boundaries allow both you and the other person to feel heard, respected, and valued in the relationship!
It Takes Two Wholes
In a healthy relationship, both partners are seen as individuals with their own lives, identities, dreams, values, fears, and anxieties. They are not an extension of one another. Instead, they are two separate and whole people who choose to share their lives together.
Do Something Kind
Kindness builds the foundation for happy, healthy, and safe relationships. Do something kind for someone you care about today!
Be in the Moment
Being present with your child shows them that they are loved, respected, and valued. When you stay in the moment, you can learn more about your child, showing them that you care about their interests and well-being.
Be an Encourager, Not a Critic
It’s You and Me
Healthy Relationships Take Work
Healthy relationships take work to build and maintain. Be intentional about taking the steps necessary to foster healthy relationships with your loved ones. Remember, it’s never too late to invest your time and energy into strengthening your relationships!
