  • Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. and Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ph. D joined us at
    Google New York to talk about the book, "Getting the Love You Want" and the Imago Relationship Theory that they co-created, which has the potential to transform all of our relationships, from personal to professional. Harville and Helen have written ten books on relationships including three New York Times Bestsellers.
    Harville is a couple's therapist with more than 40 years' experience as an educator, clinical trainer and lecturer whose work has appeared on Oprah 18 times. He holds a doctorate in Psychology and Theology from the University of Chicago and is a former professor at Southern Methodist University. Helen holds a doctorate from Union Theological Seminary (NY). In addition to the co-creation and spread of Imago relationship education around the world, Helen was inducted into the Women’s Hall of Fame for her work on behalf of women and girls. Together, Harville and Helen envision shifting from the age of the individual to the age of relationship and making collaboration and cooperation primary values of culture.

    Thank you for sharing the mirroring step in the listening process. It is a great way to remain connected to the person your speaking to and also creates a pause moment. I'm going to practice this. Thank you

    Im going to implement these. Listening, mirroring, logging negativity and also telling your partner three things you appreciate about them. Im going to implement this with my family as well.

    Even though it would never fly, I love Helen's thought about getting a marriage license being like getting a driver's license. "Shouldn't a couple have to read a manual, take a test and show some proficiency before being issued a license?" That might not work in our culture today where couples wouldn't bother getting married if you have to jump through hoops. But what about this? Why don't we make this training and this relationship proficiency a prerequisite for high school graduation???

      Chuck Starnes - That would be akin to requiring high school kids to take medications that were not proven out by 'Randomized Controlled" clinical trials that prove out both safety and efficay for a particular treatment. Would you also endorse that idea? Perscribing untested drugs?

      OH - and I am SURE that every Psychotherapist and Counselor in America just LOVES that idea - requiring every couple to pay some therapist money, requiring therapist approval! That way, they get a cut of the wedding cost pie.
      On the high school issue - it's just a psychotherapy industry money grab. That's all it is.

    My girlfriend & I, both of us seniors, went through this a few weekends ago & it was empowering. We demonstrated before the group & were told to embrace for a full minute afterward, which might have been the best part. Helen's dismissive pat during the hug was just that: dismissive. Had I received that sort of "bro hug" from my wife or girlfriend, it would've negated everything we said prior to. It makes sense to casually hug if it's just a friend, but your wife?
    Maybe I'm overreacting since touch & affection are part of my love language but I think you seal the deal w/ the ending embrace.

  • @pvlkmrv
    @pvlkmrv 3 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    This is fairly cheesy, but I love several things:
    1. Intentionally acknowledging the other and really focusing on imbibing what they say. I've been trying to be a more active listener for a while, and I regularly say "I don't understand that" or "I like that" or "I disagree with that" and try to demonstrate I know what "that" is, but I still often catch myself focusing more on crafting my own monologue.
    2. Being reliable and setting times to have structured conversations. I'm definitely anxious attachment style, and whenever I have disagreements with avoidants, they frustrate me by stringing me along and refusing to talk. But that just leads to conflict debt.
    3. Extracting what the wish is from a frustration and bringing that to the other person rather than the emotion itself. It just seems like a wise strategy, because it means they save time by not having to decode your emotions, and there's not that action-reaction dynamic that often causes people to be unpersuadable.
    4. The fact that just saying "This is why you would like blue, and I really get that" can have such a defusing effect, whereas "Blue is stupid" makes the other person double down, is really profound. It's almost like you're willing to give up on certain battles if you can have faith the other person understands you, because true understanding means they'll want you to have a win too from time to time. I've found this tactic particularly useful in political discussions, because I can get why a lot of people have certain concerns and understand how that leads them to their conclusions while simultaneously seeing that the realities aren't simple enough to be fixed with easy, narrow, or dogmatic policies. By empathizing, my would-be opponents feel safer, at which point I'm almost always able to get them to admit things are complicated and that they don't actually have it all figured out.

      That’s a very long and elaborated post for a cheesy talk lol .. To be fair, I had the same feeling as you: cheesy but actually quite profound .. and it got me thinking about what’s the definition of “cheesy”, why do we feel like it’s cheesy, why and how society has got us thinking that things that “feel simple, something between nice and naive etc.” are “cheesy” a word to which even if indirectly we ascribe a hint of negative. We seem to have a societal problem with “soft things” that are not puppies 🤔

    • @Naypa11
      @Naypa11 ปีที่แล้ว

      Instead of trying to find another way, could you try to develop your eye contact? Could you attempt to address the reason why you find it so uncomfortable?
      I find I've always had problems with eye contact,but then I found being authentically interested in the person has helped.

    The part I disagree with is that it seems they assume everyone started out in good circumstances. Being unwanted from the beginning, and living inside a mother, who is being beaten by the father is a different journey. Same trip I guess, just the roots of despair go deeper?

    • @jenlotus17
      @jenlotus17 4 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      And yes different. In utero epigenetic imprinting, if our mother dealt with alot of stress and abuse - the chemicals released in her body- in utero we can become addicted to which later in life we may recognize that pattern in relationships we become part of - subconcious and pre-born addicted to. But we can break the pattern with awareness and therapy and release. If that has not worked, look up EMDR therapy it is much faster and works allows body and mind to process past trauma so we can finally be free and released from it. Best wished.
