If you are struggling to connect on the heart-to-heart level with your spouse and your kids, read George's success story. It's an inspiring example of how strengthening your own heart connection empowers you to connect on the heart-to-heart level with the people who matter most to you. George shows us how, through commitment and dedication, we can parent with less anger and more respect.
George is a man his 40s. He's a husband and the proud father of three young children.
George reached out to me because he wanted to "reset" his life. He felt stuck in destructive habits that he badly wanted to break.
George wanted to stop having angry outbursts toward his kids. He saw how much fear and anxiety his outbursts were creating, and he didn't want to put his kids through that heartache any longer.
George also noticed that his outbursts toward his kids was creating tension and distance in his relationship with his wife. When George was having an outburst, his wife sometimes intervened and began defending the children against George's aggression. George sensed this was creating strife in his marriage, and he eagerly wanted to change things for the better.
George and I worked together over 13 weeks.
George started by setting a heartfelt intention: instead of having angry outbursts toward his kids, he wanted to meet them with more respect and compassion.
During our 13 weeks together, George and I focused on this intention.
I used Reiki energy healing to help him release accumulated stress and tension, so that he could engage his kids with newfound clarity and confidence.
I used mindfulness coaching to provide George with tools he could use to better manage his stress in real time, including techniques for meditation and breathwork.
I used heart-to-heart dialogue to help George recognize his progress, spot opportunities for improvement, and better understand the root causes of his outbursts.
George reported dramatic improvement! He noticed major progress after just a few sessions together.
He noticed he was catching himself on the verge of an outburst, and instead of reacting in anger, he was using his breathwork to calm himself down, which allowed him to respond to his kids more peacefully and respectfully. Based on our coaching together, he started looking for opportunities to play with his kids more, and he noticed how much calmer and friendlier things were when he set aside time for play.
George also noticed how this was improving his relationship with his wife. Before, when George would have an outburst, his wife would come to the children's defense. Now that George was engaging his kids more respectfully, his wife was supporting him in his efforts to direct and discipline the kids. They were working together as a team!
After our 13th session, I reached out to George's wife and asked her to provide feedback. She described a dramatic improvement!
She wrote that George "is a lot more patient" and that he doesn't blow-up into a rage so easily or so often. She said he was "more compassionate with the kids," and that he's taking the time to ask them how he can help rather than jumping right into yelling.
George's wife added that, before, she felt like she was on walking pins-and-needles around him, and that she oftentimes didn't engage him in conversation because she was afraid it would stress him out or cause a blow up. She said that "since he's been blowing up less frequently, it doesn feel like a weight has been lifted and the family as a whole isn't as 'on-edge' as we used to be."
Encouraged by the results he saw, George signed up for a second 13-week program with me. In this second round, George and I are expanding our focus. We're continuing to work on his relationship with his kids, while also working on his relationship with his wife and his father. In addition, we're working together to reduce his vaping habit.
We're 8 sessions into this second round, and George is seeing great improvement in all four areas. He continues to engage more lovingly with his kids. He's noticing improved communication and openness with his wife. He's seeing himself behave more respectfully and appreciatively toward his father. And he's gradually reducing his daily usage of the vape pen. Way to go, George!
