Finding Your Voice: Overcoming Communication Blocks in Relationships
Wednesday Wisdom
Have you ever had an argument with your significant other where you knew what you wanted to say and the words felt stuck in your throat?
You had formed your thoughts clearly, yet you couldn't get them out.
As someone who used to struggle with this, I know the frustration. There were times when I would rehearse what I wanted to say, even writing down bullets to make sure I didn’t miss anything. Yet when the time would come to share, nothing came out.
Even if my significant other was willing to listen, I struggled to speak.
Years ago I had a session with a Qi Gong practitioner. It was out of my comfort zone at the time as I was just beginning to dip my toes into the eastern side of medicine.
During our session, which involved a lot of breathwork, he instructed me to make an “OM” type sound. I had done this in yoga, my voice always hiding in with the group. When I tried during our session - nothing came out. I literally couldn’t make the sound.
I felt embarrassed and defeated. What was wrong with me?
He shared with me that this was due to shutting my voice down as a child. He was right, when I was young and conflict arose - I shut down. I withdrew into my own little world or even physically hid.
A moment of awareness is all we need to start breaking harmful patterns. This was mine. From there I began to dig into my childhood blueprint, to unearth what was making communication so hard for me.
Like many others, I teach what I’ve experienced. Talking and sharing isn’t something I struggle with anymore… just ask my partner.
