Healthy Relationships?

How do we know if our relationships (partnerships,friendships) are healthy?

Ask of yourself: Do you honour or betray yourself while in relationship with this person? 
Do you grow in a meaningful way or are you just going through the motions around them, checked out?
Do you feel challenged or complacent?
Do you feel celebrated or merely tolerated?

Our time and energy are finite resources. Don’t be casual with who and how you spend them. The more we pour into powerful, present, intimate relationships, the more powerful we ourselves shall become.

You have the right to protect your energy. If something doesn’t feel good for you, don’t do it. If someone doesn’t feel good to be around, leave. Of course there are times we need to be flexible. There are times when we need to lean in Rather than move away from the discomfort. But it’s ok to also draw a line in the sand and choose to get your lessons in a gentler way. Sometimes the most loving thing to do is to say no and choose a lighter path.
