The Struggle Of Relationship Conflict

Heated conflict with important people can make us feel so distressed, not only during the argument but sometimes for days afterwards. We tend to believe that the other person's behaviour or the unresolved issue is the source of our misery. But though the other person's behaviour may be unacceptable, and the unresolved issue may be distressing, the cause of our misery is within us. Understand what the source of upset during and after heated arguments. See how it's what you are focused on that increases the pain you feel in difficult relationships. Learn about the importance of the intention or goal that you have during conflict, and how this determines how conflict affects you and your relationship. Shift your focus during conflict and bring healing to your relationship as well as to your life.
