Johnson, a licensed mental health counsellor, dives into the practical and spiritual ways to foster a peaceful home environment. Drawing from biblical principles and best practices in counselling, he offers a wealth of advice for creating a sanctuary of calm amidst life's chaos.
The episode highlights the importance of understanding and implementing peace in your relationships, whether with family, friends, or colleagues. Johnson shares insights from well-known resources like Stephen Covey's 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People' and Gary Chapman's 'The Five Love Languages', explaining how these can be applied to everyday interactions to build stronger, more peaceful relationships.
He emphasises the need for active listening, where you genuinely engage with and understand your loved ones, and outlines practical tools for conflict resolution, including recognising and avoiding criticism, contempt, defensiveness, and stonewalling.
