Mindfulness for Self-Acceptance
Sometimes
feeling unattached and disconnected from your partner can make you feel lonely.
Often you feel you do not belong in the relationship. There might be times
where you feel your partner does not accept you or accept the things that you
do. However, this can occur if there is a lack of communication and less
emotional connection with your partner. Having fewer intimate conversations and
less sexual intimacy can also occur.
Loneliness can
make you feel distant from your partner. Additionally, this feeling of
loneliness can increase and put tension in your relationship. However, this
feeling of not belonging can occur to both of you throughout many years of
being married. Therefore, it is recommended to reconnect with your partner with
hobbies you both like and enjoy. Share ideas, your thoughts, and remember how
you got together with your partner.
Practice
mindfulness to feel you belong and to feel accepted. Both of you can practice
mindfulness individually and then as a couple. Begin by meditating with a
guided meditation about belonging. Listen carefully while you close your eyes.
Put your hand on your heart and listen to the guided meditation.
Next practice
mindfulness when you get dressed in the morning or at night. Observe your
breathing and observe your body. Close your eyes and use your other senses to
observe how you feel. Open your eyes and continue getting dressed. Say a mantra
or repeat the word, "Acceptance."
Continue combing
or brushing your hair. Comb your hair slowly. Then tell yourself, " I am
accepted, I belong." After that practice mindfulness with your partner.
Practice communication and mindfulness together.
Be honest and
admit any mistakes that you made. Forgive your partner. Listen attentively as
you practice mindful communication. Do loving-kindness and write a letter to
your partner. Tell each other, " I am safe with you," "I accept
you," and " I belong and feel your acceptance."
Another way is to
trust your partner by combing and brushing your hair. Let your partner help
you. Then practice mindfulness at night by changing into your sleep wear. Say a
mantra, do breathing techniques, and let go of body comparisons. Look in the
mirror together as a couple and say, " I trust, accept, and feel
comfortable with you."
Belonging and
self-acceptance permits you to feel less loneliness. As well as feeling safe
and feeling trustworthiness with each other. Clearly communicate your feelings
with your partner so both of you can understand each other. Consult therapy for
couples to improve your relationship and advice to reconnect with your partner.
