5 Ways to Love Consciously



5 Ways to Love Consciously
Adapted from thebridgemaker.com

1.       Show Appreciation – Sometimes a simple ‘thank you’ can make a world of difference.  Look for the good and see how many new things you can be grateful for.  It will change your life and your relationships!
2.      Be Happy, Not Right – Here’s a simple questions for you – Would you rather be right or happy?  Don’t let pride take over and cost you a good friend or an intimate relationship.  You may be right about a topic, but if you let your friend or partner come first, you will never be wrong.  Happiness feels better than vindication.
3.      No Day But Today - What would you say to your friend or partner if you knew this was the last day you would be together? Would you complain about the television being too loud, or would you remind your partner of their value and significance?
·         Kiss your mate at least twice a day
·         Leave a quick note just to say “hi,” or “I love you”
·         Never do anything you wouldn’t want your friends or partner to know
·         Be fully present when they need to talk or share something important
·         Make the effort to spend some time together each day
·         Give a compliment
·         Make your partner feel important
·         Smile
4.       No Judgement - When a judgment is made, there is an implied belief the behavior or trait being judged should be corrected. However, the person receiving the judgment does not always share the same expectation.  As a result, communication is impaired, connection is deteriorated and conflict ensues. To love deliberately and consciously requires loving your partner with a different filter – a cleaner filter that does not have the residue of past contaminants.

5.      Be Aware of Your Own Thoughts & Feelings - Loving authentically is dependent on loving yourself, first. Before you share love, and share yourself with someone give yourself opportunities outside of the relationship. Build friendships and pursue interests on your own.  A good relationship exists when both people can live without the other, but choose to be together.

“You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love. “
~Henry Drummond
