Hello,
My name is Marlou Harris.
I've been working with couples for nearly 30 years as a therapist and I created this meditation of affirmations for anyone in a relationship to help improve communication and understanding between the two of you.
So let's get started.
First of all,
Get into a comfortable position,
Either sitting up with your spine straight or laying down.
Just be comfortable.
And first of all,
Take three deep breaths.
Inhale deeply and exhale long.
Let it all out.
Just like that.
Inhale through your nose.
Keep inhaling.
Hold your breath at the top and now exhale out of your mouth.
Perfect.
And one more time.
Inhale very deep.
Inhale,
Hold your breath at the top and now exhale out of your mouth very slowly until all of your air has been exhaled.
And now these are affirmations for you to repeat out loud or in your mind,
Whatever is comfortable for you.
I create a culture of appreciation in my environment.
I express my gratitude and appreciation for my partner easily and effortlessly.
I focus on what I love about my partner.
Whenever I think a critical thought,
I look within myself and ask,
What is it that I need to say?
How can I express this in a kind way?
Do I need to express this directly to my partner or is this something I need to look at more carefully within myself?
Whenever your partner does something that you appreciate,
Be sure to let them know.
Share your love,
Share your gratitude and appreciation.
And now say after me,
I nurture and nourish my relationship.
I express what I love about my partner all the time directly to them.
My relationship with my significant other is one of the most important relationships and I make it a priority to focus on communicating with love and kindness.
My relationship with my significant other is one of the most important relationships and I make a point to prioritize this relationship and to communicate with kindness.
Whenever I notice that my partner is upset,
I take a moment and ask,
How can I support you?
Is there anything I can do to help take this burden from you?
I listen carefully to the response and repeat back what I heard.
I repeat back what my partner tells me so that I know I've understood correctly before responding.
I love my relationship.
I love my partner and I understand it's the foundation for our entire family.
I make it a point to find out what my partner's love language is and what my love language is so that I can express my love in a way that's valuable to my partner.
It may be quality time,
Spending time together one-on-one.
If it's words of affirmation,
I find out what my partner likes to hear and I work on saying things in that way.
If it's acts of service,
I may create a special dinner or do something else that I know my partner loves.
Even though my partner's love language may be different from mine,
I strive to understand what theirs is in order to make our relationship stronger.
My relationship with my loved one also enhances my personal and individual life.
I know that the attention I put into my relationship affects my life,
It affects my partner's life and everyone around us.
When I communicate with loving kindness,
The possibility for deeper love grows.
I love being in love and I want to keep our love fresh and alive.
I am open to new ideas to enhance my relationship.
By listening to this recording often,
These positive beliefs are embedded in my subconscious mind.
I listen to this recording to help me to remember all of the things that are important in our relationship.
I am fully committed to improving my relationship with my loved one.
I am fully committed to improving the quality of our love.
I am fully committed to the deep emotional connection that we have and to improving it in any way I can.
Now I want you to give yourself gratitude for taking this time,
For putting the energy into fostering your relationship,
To making it better,
To improving your communication.
And I want you to think of three things that you love and appreciate about your partner.
Take a moment now and think of three things.
They can be simple things,
Something they did,
An act of service,
How they look,
A compliment,
How much you love them,
Something specific that they've actually done,
Just something positive.
And make each of these three things as specific as possible so it comes from your heart with authenticity.
And I want you to make a point to share these three things that you love with your partner at some point in the day.
And they don't have to be all three things at once.
You could do it throughout the day.
Remember,
What you focus on expands.
And the more you focus on the traits and the qualities that you appreciate in your beloved,
The more of those there will be to appreciate going forward.
And creating that culture of appreciation establishes a strong foundation of love so that when you hit bumps in the road,
When things don't go your way and it happens,
It always happens from time to time to everyone.
Because you have established and created a strong foundation of appreciation and love in your relationship,
You can weather the storm and be more resilient when you do have those ups and downs.
I hope you enjoy this.
And listen to this recording until you know exactly how to communicate your love and how to share the things that are important that your loved one really wants to hear and that you really want to say.
I hope you enjoy this.
Thank you so much for listening.
I wish you the most amazing success for the most incredible relationship,
Glowing and wonderful.
And just the fact that you've listened to this recording shows that you are growing,
Learning,
That you are open to creating a magnificent life.
Best of luck to you.
Thank you so much for listening.
