PRINCIPLES OF HEALTHY RELATING

Sometimes it’s just hard, confusing or scary to meet and try to get to know someone new. We can have feelings of overwhelm, confusion , awkwardness, disconnection, and even shame, as we try to negotiate the intricacies of connecting and relating. Think about it, though.
