Experiencing an emotional conversation

<p>Ep #187 - Emotions are a joy. Without them life is a malaise, its just plain dull, and most of use spent an inordinate amount of time running from emotions, pushing them down, away, and bottling them up - BUT not now!! NO, now we're in a state of exploration of sobriety and recovery so swimming in the emotions, immersing ourselves in them, working our way out of the fog and into the light - that is who we are now, right? Yes, we are, are we not?</p> <p>In today's show I am going to discuss with you how I recently went through a very tough conversation and what I did well and where I can grow. Having vulnerable, intimate conversations with those we love and desire to be closer to is imperative to moving ourselves from a state of 'emotions are shameful' toward 'emotions are majestic.'</p> <p>Here are some key tips:</p> <p>Ask if this is a good time to have a deep talk</p> <p>Be open to hearing things that go against how you think and feel</p> <p>Set a location in your home where you don't do other things</p> <p>Look them in the eye and definitely do not look at your phone</p> <p>Use a lot of "I" and as few "You's" as possible</p> <p>Accept personal responsibility for your role in this. Meaning you release blaming, complaining, and making excuses</p> <p>Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now.</p> <p>It is time. It has been time. To live is to shine. Step into the SUN.</p> <p>Stand up, step forward, raise your hand - it's your turn, I will call on you.</p> <p>********************************************</p> <p>Thank you so much for listening and being a part of my tribe and this wonderfully supportive community.
