Episode 3017:
Lisa Firestone explores how mindfulness can transform romantic relationships by helping couples respond with awareness instead of reacting from unresolved emotional triggers.

Quotes to ponder:
"When it comes to leftover emotional pain from our earliest relationships, no one will trigger us like our romantic partner."
"Mindfulness isn’t about denying or burying our emotions. It’s simply about cultivating a different relationship to our feelings and experiences, in which we are in the driver’s seat."
“What mindfulness does is it creates this space; it takes us out of the catastrophe. And as a couple working together in a mindfulness way, there’s a lot more heart available. There’s a lot more understanding possible than this need to defend.”
