Building positive relationships is a win-win situation
Whether married or not, single and looking for a relationship or wanting to
improve relationships with friends, when we invest quality time into
building positive relationships, our own health and
vitality are boosted.
We also open the door to the benefits of having a close-knit circle of friends.
Strong relationships are based on trust. When you
feel safe in another person's presence you are free to fully express
your true self. Often without that feeling of safety
we guard our true selves from being hurt. Trust in relationships
is therefore an essential foundation to building strong bonds of friendship.
In the list below are some of the common types of relationships we
experience in life. Click on them to discover more about developing
each one to a new level.
To be successful and healthy, every relationship needs
our understanding, time and commitment in several key areas:
- respect
- trust
- openness
- balance of power, and
- sharing
As noted above, from this list, trust in relationships
is perhaps the most difficult to achieve yet it offers the greatest
rewards.
