Hello, and welcome to the Borealis experience. I’m

Unknown:

your host Aurora. And I’m very happy to be spending some time

Unknown:

with you today. This episode is requested by a dear lesson. I’m

Unknown:

very excited to address this marital conflicts. Because I

Unknown:

feel a lot of people struggle in their relationships. And in

Unknown:

talking about it and reflecting about it, and seeing how we can

Unknown:

change ourselves. And in doing so, positively influencing our

Unknown:

relationships, we can become stronger individuals, stronger,

Unknown:

couples, a stronger society. If you like this podcast, make sure

Unknown:

Unknown:

podcast here. so wonderful to have you. And I’m so grateful

Unknown:

for all the listeners who have been here since the beginning.

Unknown:

If you want to give back, if you want to show appreciation, hop

Unknown:

onto Apple podcast and leave me a five star review. This will

Unknown:

make it easy for people to find me and is a big thumbs up to my

Unknown:

work, which I would appreciate greatly. Thank you so much. All

Unknown:

right, let’s dive into this. I’m assuming that you married a

Unknown:

person that you love and respect that you are attracted to. And

Unknown:

that you see potential in your relationship you want to build

Unknown:

and create. You got to know them a little bit beforehand, you

Unknown:

feel comfortable with them. Maybe they are a friend to you,

Unknown:

also a lover, a respected partner. But sometimes after a

Unknown:

couple years, things go astray and things change and

Unknown:

relationships change. And I want to explore a little bit why this

Unknown:

happens. I feel that a lot of times we take our partner for

Unknown:

granted. And we start slacking off. We make assumptions about

Unknown:

how they think and who they are. And we kind of dive off into our

Unknown:

world and maybe work on ourselves or focus on ourselves.

Unknown:

And then all of a sudden you wake up next to your partner one

Unknown:

day, and you don’t even really know who this is anymore. You

Unknown:

live in the same house sleep in the same bed. But he don’t

Unknown:

really have the strong bond between you guys anymore. And

Unknown:

there’s many, many things you can do in order to refresh a

Unknown:

relationship in order to fix relationship issues. And this is

Unknown:

what I want to talk about with you today. The number one thing

Unknown:

that is very important to keep track of is how much time do you

Unknown:

spend together? And is this time? spend wisely? Do you just

Unknown:

sit on top of each other and he is on his phone and she is on

Unknown:

her iPad? Or in front of the TV? What are the things that you do

Unknown:

when you spend time together? Is it fulfilling? Or is it just

Unknown:

boring routine? Do you give each other full presence? When your

Unknown:

partner wants to tell you something? Do you actually put

Unknown:

your phone away and any other distractions you newspaper or

Unknown:

whatever it could be and fully listen to your partner? And then

Unknown:

what is really the art of listening? Do they talk and you

Unknown:

think of your response already and how you want to get back to

Unknown:

them? Or do you just listen and read body language and read what

Unknown:

the main messages here? And after they’ve done talking he

Unknown:

just wait and see a little bit? Do they want to vent? Do they

Unknown:

want advice? Your opinion? Do they want to express to you how

Unknown:

they feel. Being able to truly listen is a life changer in

Unknown:

relationships. And I didn’t want to wait till the end of the

Unknown:

episode because I wanted you

Unknown:

to know right away that it is a very easy task to do. And so

Unknown:

powerful and important in order to nurture intimate

Unknown:

relationships, but also friendships. So when you listen

Unknown:

to somebody, what’s yourself from now on? Do you want to jump

Unknown:

in and interrupt them? Do you want to jump in and throw your

Unknown:

opinion on the table and how you feel? Or can you let them speak

Unknown:

out. And for me, when I started doing that, I noticed how

Unknown:

impatient I was getting, I wanted to get my opinion out

Unknown:

there, I wanted to get my advice out there because I wanted to

Unknown:

help them right away. But when we do that, we oftentimes miss

Unknown:

out on critical information, we pressure the other person, and

Unknown:

we don’t make them feel heard. And, you know, so many times I,

Unknown:

I see, like women, or even men who are like, Oh, my partner

Unknown:

cheated on me. And I don’t even know what happened. And why is

Unknown:

this and stuff what the side person was usually a good

Unknown:

listener, was able to feel the emotions of the other and add

Unknown:

and respond adequately. So I feel if we learn to listen to a

Unknown:

partner again, then we can create that sweet intimacy to

Unknown:

each other, which will reduce the likelihood

Unknown:

of cheating. Now, we have listening. The next point I want

Unknown:

to address is the assumptions.

Unknown:

Oftentimes, we see our partner if we’ve been together with them

Unknown:

for a couple years. And we just think, yeah, we know exactly how

Unknown:

they think we know exactly what they do what they want in life.

Unknown:

And, yeah, this is just how it is. But if you could change this

Unknown:

a little bit, if you could see that your partner is allowed to

Unknown:

change over time. And it makes it even very excited, exciting

Unknown:

for you, if they change because they can open you up to a

Unknown:

complete new world. So you have to energetically and emotionally

Unknown:

give them that space, and that curiosity, to evolve and to

Unknown:

become someone new every day. And to not assume just because

Unknown:

they cheered for the Italians, Italian soccer players, that

Unknown:

they love spaghetti, and that they love to go to Rome for the

Unknown:

next trip of vacation. If you know what I mean here, we have

Unknown:

to sometimes kind of force ourselves to be curious about

Unknown:

people that we know for a long time, because it will give the

Unknown:

other person an opportunity to grow an opportunity to see that

Unknown:

you are genuinely interested. And that you give them the space

Unknown:

and you allow them to grow and evolve. And this is such a

Unknown:

precious gift to start new hobbies together to Yeah, maybe

Unknown:

you guys were both not sporty and physically active in the

Unknown:

past, but maybe you want to try something new. So to allow

Unknown:

novelty and to maybe even schedule it that once a month,

Unknown:

you do something new, you go to a place that you guys have never

Unknown:

been before you try a hobby that you’ve never tried before. And

Unknown:

to just be playful again, I feel a lot of times we forget about

Unknown:

the importance of playfulness. When it comes to physical

Unknown:

attraction. Remember how attracted you were at the

Unknown:

beginning of your relationship to your partner and how it is

Unknown:

nowadays is still very attracted and curious. Do you still

Unknown:

explore new things or do you deeply appreciate your partner’s

Unknown:

body with all the flaws with with everything that it has to

Unknown:

offer? partner massage is a very good thing to get intimate again

Unknown:

and asking questions that she it’s very scary territory to

Unknown:

you. To walk on at the beginning, but it is so

Unknown:

incredibly important to also there. Stay curious, what do you

Unknown:

need? What do you want? am I touching you the way that it is

Unknown:

good for you? Or am I only doing what I think is good for you.

Unknown:

So, also, they’re becoming curious. Again, asking questions

Unknown:

can sometimes unlock potential that you guys didn’t know, was

Unknown:

even there to express your needs. And to tell the other

Unknown:

person, what you really want not only makes you feel good about

Unknown:

yourself, but also makes the other person see that you trust

Unknown:

them, and that you want a strong bond with them. And that in and

Unknown:

of itself, is very strengthening for a relationship. You know,

Unknown:

you guys are married, you want to stay together for life, you

Unknown:

have to be able to fully open up, because you don’t want to

Unknown:

die one day and know that you had to hide this part of

Unknown:

yourself because you were scared to feeling judged. You have to

Unknown:

be able to trust your partner fully, and allow yourself to

Unknown:

grow and express yourself and be a trustworthy partner and do the

Unknown:

same for your partner. So I feel that wasn’t the last episode

Unknown:

that I put out

Unknown:

here for marital conflict. But the first we covered here was

Unknown:

the lessening the undivided attention, the curiosity for

Unknown:

your partner, playfulness, and then intimacy, how to be

Unknown:

intimate with your partner again, because most of the time,

Unknown:

it is your one and only person that you want to be intimate

Unknown:

with. But let’s not allow it to become shallow and routine.

Unknown:

Let’s dive a little deeper again and create deep, satisfying

Unknown:

relationships. Thank you so much for listening today. I will be

Unknown:

out there very soon again. And if this topic is of interest to

Unknown:

you, please shoot me a message and I’ll put out there more

Unknown:

content about it. Until next time,
