What Your Challenging Relationship is Teaching You About You and How to Heal

That’s a hard truth.

And if we are brave enough to look within, we can ask ourselves the following questions that were formulated by Tracy McMillan, a relationship expert, on what we can do, and learn about ourselves, when we realize we are in, or have attracted, these unhealthy relationships, be it with a partner or anyone else in our life:
 

1. Where do I need to love myself more?


2. What is it that I am here to learn?

 

3. What is it that I believe about myself that this situation is showing me?
 

4. What can I do about it?

In order to help you apply this tool yourself, the following is an example of how I have applied asking myself these questions about my own difficult and challenging relationships:

Where do I need to love myself more?

  • I need to know and believe in what I deserve.
  • I need to trust myself and know that I know what is right and correct for me.
  • I need to respect my own feelings.

What is it that I am here to learn?

  • I am here to learn that I deserve goodness in my life.
  • I am here to learn that I deserve to be loved and respected for who I am.
  • I am here to learn that my feelings are valid.

What is it that I believe about myself that this situation is showing me?

  • Right now, this situation is showing me, that I believe that I don’t deserve goodness, or to be resepected for who I am, or to respect and honor my own feelings.

What can I do about it?

  • I can start with me.
  • I can respect and accept myself.
  • I can respect and accept my feelings.
  • I can know what I deserve, believe it, and attract that which I deserve into my life.

That’s how it works!

Now it’s your turn.
