Making Time for Couples Counseling
We live in busy times. Our recreational time becomes something we have to schedule in. Our days feel too full and our nights under slept. Personal issues often take a back seat to the rest of life, whirring by. One of the most common problems with couples who want to take time to see a marriage counselor is they can’t seem to make the time for it.
Many couples have great intentions when it comes to marriage therapy. They know it would contribute enormously to a healthier marriage; they want to do it. But they either have trouble taking the first steps or they begin therapy, only to continually cancel sessions because of life circumstances.
It’s interesting that something as fundamental to our well-being as our personal relations can so easily take a backseat to other elements of our lives. We’ve become a society where our psyche has very little relevance, at least outwardly. Being constantly “on the go” makes for a community of people who are disconnected, stressed and overworked. How do you genuinely connect with your loved one if you can’t make time for him or her?
Relationship don’t work on autopilot. They require maintenance, tending. The word “work” is often bandied about when it comes to relationships, but that has negative connotations. Think of a relationship as a garden instead of a treadmill!
When we can break out of “busy mode” for long enough to realize the real reason we’re here – to love, to experience one another on a deep level, to genuinely connect – we begin to realize the importance of taking time for counseling if your relationship needs it. Let your love move to the top of your “to do” list.
