What an awesome act of respect to say you know what, because of the way I'm thinking or feeling, I'm going to leave the room now, not in a way where you're running away, but I'm choosing because of tymenos. I'm choosing to not have these feelings here in this room.
Picture your relationship as a house. Now, think about the importance of having rooms that serve specific purposes. In this episode of 'Counseling on Demand', Dr. Fred Riley dives into the metaphor of a house to explain how setting boundaries can keep arguments out of the bedroom. He introduces the idea of 'tymenos', a sacred space within the relationship where respect and peace are paramount.
By focusing on what's working rather than what's not, couples can create a safe base that fosters healthy communication and reduces conflict. Dr. Riley's advice is both practical and profound, offering couples tools to build stronger, more respectful relationships. Whether you're navigating a new relationship or seeking to improve an existing one, this episode provides valuable insights to help you maintain harmony and understanding with your partner.
