Creating Space for Change: Relationship Insights with Guy Finley

The relationship changes by giving you room to change yourself. And how do I do it? By giving myself room to see myself as I am. It's such magic, Danny.
Ever feel like telling someone to change just doesn’t work? You're not alone. In this episode of The Brain Warrior's Way Podcast, Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen sit down with Guy Finley, the author of 'Relationship Magic'. They tackle the tricky issue of how to help those close to you make better decisions by giving them the room to grow. Finley emphasizes that simply telling someone to change often backfires.
Instead, he suggests that leaving space for objective realizations can lead to meaningful transformation. Dr. Amen even shares a brain scan of a patient, revealing how decreased activity in certain brain areas can affect mood and behavior, underscoring the biological aspect of our relationships. Finley argues that understanding our own negative thoughts and integrating them, rather than pushing them away, can improve our relationships. Conscious observation, rather than reactive behavior, is key to fostering growth.
This episode is packed with practical tips and deep insights into how self-knowledge and giving space can make a big difference in personal relationships.
