Enhancing the Quantum
Aspect of Your Intimate Relationship The quantum aspect of your
relationship lays the foundation for the quality of interactions,
conver-sations and fulfillment you experience on a daily basis with
your partner. Are satisfied with your relationship? If not, let's
briefly look at the unseen energy culprits that could be corrupting
and hijacking your relationship without your conscious awareness. The quantum aspect of your
relationship involves the energy deposits you make with your
thoughts, emotions and intentions. Stop for just a moment and
consider the type of energy deposits you are making into your
relationship. For instance, are you depositing nurturing or not-so
nurturing energies (acceptance, love, understanding vs. criticalness,
shame, unhappiness)? Are you responding with patience or impatience?
Are you focusing on the what you don't like or what you do like? Do
you forgive and forget quickly or hold on to and obsess? Do you take
responsibility for your actions or do you project and blame? Even
when you can justify harsh actions, do you treat your partner with
respect? Do you take time to compliment and praise or let them know
what s/he didn't do? These are just a few
examples of the energy deposits you could be making into the bank of
your intimate relationship. Many times the deposits are executed with
swiftness and little thought as to the quantum effect on the
supporting structure of the relationship. Sometimes it is an
ineffective habit we developed long ago. Whatever the case, for the
sake of your relationship take a moment to update on your energy
deposits.
Relationships are fed
energetically. The energies come from the looks we
give our partner or the seemingly innocuous gestures we
make when interacting with our loved one. Even the way we touch
our partner exchanges energies with their spirit. How about our
attitudes? Can they be felt? Yes. Can our thoughts cause harm to our
relationship and our partner? Yes. Can 'nice' words hide nasty
energies? No.
Here are
some 10 suggestions of how to change the types of energy deposits you
are making into your relationship: Decide
on the types of energies you want supporting your relationship and
begin depositing these energies into your relationship via your
thoughts, actions, attitudes and emotions (i.e. happiness, respect,
admiration, trust, acceptance). Become
mindful of what your partner's energies are saying and rather than
judge, ask questions and approach with an intent to learn and
understand. If
you are harboring resentment, hurt feelings, angst or unforgiveness,
choose to learn what you need to do to be able to forgive and move
on. Quiet
your mind and listen from your Heart. Become
more conscious of the energies you are sliding in with your looks,
attitudes, gestures, beliefs, perceptions, assumptions and words
(i.e. look in the mirror after an interaction with your partner and
notice if your 'look' matches what you think it would be). Touch
your partner on the shoulder, hand and back with the energies of
appreciation, love, gratitude, acknowledgment and recognition.
Avoid
'you are' statements that carry the energies of judgment,
accusation, blame and non-acceptance.
Pay
attention to the types of thoughts you hold in your mind about your
partner—these thought forms are alive and do have an affect on
your partner and the relationship. Notice
how you talk about your relationship and your partner to others as
this energy will not only be felt by partner but also accumulate in
the relationship and become an energy that is either supportive or
non-supportive of the relationship. Avoid
trying to 'win' and 'be right' as these energies create energy walls
and dividers in the relationship. After enough of these dynamics,
the relationship does not have much room to move or grow.
