The Beauty of Anger!

Anger is an emotion that gets an incredibly bad rap.

People are put into classes by the courts to learn how to control their anger. Kids are sent to their rooms until they can act ‘nice.’ Partners take great pains not to reveal their anger to their significant other for fear that they’ll be either a ‘bitch’ or an ‘abusive husband.’

Good grief, there’s a lot of pain, embarrassment and shame around this emotion!

But, do you know what? To even think that anger is ‘unhealthy’ is an evaluation that’s unfair and unproductive.

She Just Uses Me As Her Listening Object

All she wants to do is talk to me.

And all she wants me to do is listen… and enjoy it.
 
Let's turn things around, just for a second.  It seems to be fine to say, "I feel used,"  "He just wants me for sex!" or "He just uses me as a sex object."

Got Jealousy?

What do humans and the frilled lizard have in common?

Sometimes, when we’re afraid, we both puff out our faces and ears and try to act really, really scary.

The fear in jealousy is so strong that it can sometimes make us react to situations like a frilled lizard, just to make sure that our partner gets the point that we don't want them to stray.

And how many times has that ever made your beloved admire you more? Probably not many…

People use the word ‘jealousy’ as a feeling, but Marshall Rosenberg, the creator of Nonviolent Communication (www.cnvc.org) would probably argue that it’s a thought.

For example, ‘abandoned’ is a thought — it’s your negative evaluation of somebody leaving you. But what if they IRS abandoned you and your audit? Is that necessarily negative? No…. so ‘abandoned’ is an evaluation of, or thought about, somebody leaving you.

Desperate Housewives… Desperate Communication!

All communication is either an act of love or a cry for help.

Either our needs are being met and we’d like to celebrate that with other people, or our needs are not being met and we would like empathy from others.

This is one of the basic premises of Dr. Marshall Rosenberg’s communication theory, Nonviolent Communication (www.cnvc.org). And the characters in the hit TV series Desperate Housewives soooo beautifully demonstrate this premise.

Take the episode from season 2, “No One is Alone.” In past episodes, Susan has remarried Carl in order to use his health insurance for a surgery she needs.

He Doesn't Listen Anymore!

He doesn't listen anymore….I talk to him, but it's like he doesn't even hear me! Sound familiar?

There's a lot of consistency to the questions, and one we're seeing over and over again is this: "My lover doesn't listen to me anymore. How can I do to get them to listen?"

The Magic Relationship Method (MRM) is the communication method we teach and which we'll be describing here. You can read more about it by requesting our special report at the website listed in our bio.

MRM works by connecting and expressing the feelings and needs of both people in a conversation.
