Do you know someone who is hurting and reaching out for help, but you are not sure what to say or do? Lets look at the common snags and bridges to offering comfort to someone in need.
Showing You Care
This is the final entry of a three part series in which we have explored cultivating relationships. First we looked at each of our individual responsibility to being open to growing in order to nurture connection. We then shifted to the importance of knowing our personal nature as well as the makeup of others in order to influence those same relationships. In this final entry we will focus on ways to cultivate a loving connection. We will do this through the lens of the Five Love Languages.
Understanding Personal Makeup
In Part 1 (of 3) we talked about how we are all in relationship with various people in our life. We took a closer look at parent child dynamics. We also spoke about the call of parents to mold children. But children aren't the only ones to evolve and grow, parents are called to that as well. In order to do so, we want to first establish a starting point. In this 2nd entry we will be looking at the nature part of the nature vs. nurture conversation.
Parenting With Love
Developing a 'Growth Mindset'
In the first half of this two parter we looked at what made up a ‘Fixed Mindset’. Now we discuss a 'Growth Mindset' and explore the differences between them. We will also identify a key factor to cultivate growth, all in an effort to help you reach your full potential and avoid pitfalls like perfectionism, anxiety, and low self-esteem.
