Love, understanding, affection, and positive interactions are all “deposits” into our relationships. Mean words, disagreements, and stress may all “withdraw” from our relationships. It’s normal to have disagreements in relationships sometimes, especially during times of high stress like now. Knowing how to repair your relationship after a disagreement can minimize the amount that you’re “withdrawing,” or even turn a disagreement into a “deposit.” One way to repair is to apologize to your partner in a way that feels validating for them.

Mindfulness/Meditation of the week:
Perhaps the television show you watch has quite a bit of violence and gets your nervous system going. This isn’t to label a show, story, or song as good or bad. It’s merely about recognizing the effects of your choice. As you consume the piece of media, notice the response of the mind and body. If you are watching TV, mute the volume during commercials to check in with yourself. When reading a news story, pause every few paragraphs. Watch for stress, anxiety, or increased energy in the body. Whether you’re watching television, reading news, or listening to music, try to be fully present with your experience. Watch the individuals on the TV, pay attention to the details of the news story, and hear the individual instruments of a song. Dive into the experience with your full attention.
