God Money and Purpose

What kind of attention do you want in a relationship?


Listen Later

On this episode, Raul and Vivian focus on two interrelated points. The first comes from a situation the two were recently in where the family went to the beach. Raul volunteered to get a beach umbrella, but by the time he got to the store, he kept on buying more and more things that were less and less useful. Raul explores the pattern and trigger that led him to take that action, and specifically his need for approval. The second point comes from a question from a viewer. The viewer feels ignored when her husband sits down and becomes a couch potato. Raul and Vivian discuss how masculine and feminine energy play into different methods of sedating yourself when you want to quiet your mind. TV, drugs, and alcohol can be a way of quieting the mind that aren’t as healthy as, say, meditation or exercise. What should the woman do to communicate with her husband that she feels ignored, and what can the two of them do together to improve their relationship.
