The Vital Role of Self-Love in Building a Healthy Relationship

Building a healthy relationship requires effort, commitment, and trust. It is a two-way street where both partners have to be equally invested in each other's well-being. However, before we can even think of building a healthy relationship, we must learn to love ourselves. Self-love is the foundation of any healthy relationship, and it plays a vital role in our ability to build and maintain one. Self-love is the act of embracing and appreciating oneself for who one is, even one's flaws. It is a journey of self-discovery, self-awareness, and self-compassion. When we learn to love ourselves, we become more confident, self-assured, and happy. We become more aware of our needs, wants, and boundaries, and we are better able to communicate them to our partners. The importance of self-love in building a healthy relationship cannot be overstated. Here are a few ways in which self-love can help you build a healthy and fulfilling relationship: Understanding The Concept Of Self-Love Self-

Keep Attracting Emotionally Unavailable Partners? by Tannaz Hosseinpour

Hi Soul-friends, It’s Tannaz Hosseinpour and welcome back to another short solo episode of minutes on growth. I just finished putting the final touches on a relationship masterclass that I’m presenting this Sunday on healthy communication, and as I was finishing the slides, I thought to myself… all these tools that I’m sharing and that I would love for everyone to learn, does mastering them guarantee success in any dynamic? & while I’d love to say that it will, the truth is that no matter how skilled you are at communication, you can’t communicate your way to a healthy relationship with an emotionally unavailable partner. which made me recognize the pattern I’m seeing in my private practice: attracting emotionally unavailable partners. I want to begin by saying that when it comes to relationships, it’s not about who you attract – but rather who you entertain that matters. A couple of weeks ago, one of my 1:1 clients told me that she was going on a date with a man who seemed great

Heal Your Mind-Body Connection

Hey everyone, This is Tannaz Hosseinpour and welcome to this week’s episode of Minutes on Growth. Last week we discussed the 5-minute rule and how to allocate 5 minutes of our day every day for as long as we need to feel the feelings associated with a situation that has triggered sadness, anger or fear within us. But what happens if we neglect our feelings and bottle them up and choose to not face them? Over time, at some point in our lives, they will show up but in different forms. We tend to only share the happy and fun parts of our lives on our social media, we do not share our real pains, our darkest hours. I’ve decided to change that and to be authentic with myself and those around me. Whenever we push aside our feelings, it reappears in our lives but in a different form. It appears as depression, as weight gain, it appears as a skin disorder or an illness, or it simply takes away the light and youth component from our faces. The mind and the body are interconnected and we canno

Destroy Your Reputation by Tannaz Hosseinpour

The other day I came across a poem by one of my favorite poets Rumi in which he said, “Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.” The poem goes against everything we’ve learned growing up, which basically was advice on how to not ruin our reputation and to always care about what people think of us because somehow our lives are dependent on the opinion of others. Which made me think… what a reputation is even, like what does it even mean? Is there one fixed reputation that I can have in  If I’m constantly worried about acting a certain way, talking a certain way, thinking a certain way my life, or do I have different reputations because if you ask person X about me, they’re going to have a different perspective of me than Person Y, and so on. That’s because people can only see others from the level of understanding and consciousness that t

Decluttering your Mind by Tannaz Hosseinpour

What do I mean by de-cluttering the mind? On average, we tend to have 50,000 thoughts per day. Now, how many of these thoughts do you think are positive? Michael Beckwith from Agape quotes that there are 4 windows of manifestation, and the first window is that your thoughts, opinions, perceptions, and beliefs become your reality – so they manifest themselves into your reality – in other words, we really need to be conscious of what we are storing inside of our minds as they hold so much power but in order to do that we need to first become aware of what is already there. One way to do that is by looking at areas of our life that are bothering us or ask ourselves if we’re attracting the same negative situations over and over again – To think, am I holding a negative belief about myself or my life or environment? – then look deep into our subconscious and find the root, the seed that we had planted in the past that have to lead to this manifestation and attraction. We really need
