Feeling lonely when you're by yourself feels par for the course sometimes, but it's not so easy to admit - even to yourself - when you are feeling lonely in your relationship. I explore reasons why you may be lonely, how to tell if it's a "you" problem or "we" problem, and give you some tools to help you overcome feelings of loneliness, especially when you're in a relationship.

Explore why you might feel lonely in a relationship, distinguish if it's a personal or relationship issue, and learn techniques to overcome loneliness.

Feeling Lonely In Your Relationship

Do you often feel overwhelmed by your feelings? Do you wonder how you can change them or get rid of them? When you practice shifting the lens through which you understand your feelings, you shift how you feel what you believe and how you show up in the world.

Shift the lens through which you understand your feelings to change how you feel, believe, and show up in the world.

What Your Feelings Are Telling You

Perfect for those feeling overwhelmed and stressed. These techniques ground you in the present and increase your ability to handle the stress that you can't control.

Grounding techniques help manage stress by increasing present moment awareness and coping abilities for uncontrollable stressors.

Making Peace With Your Stress

The key to feeling balanced is not trying to balance at all. If you're feeling overwhelmed, take a few minutes and soak up some relaxation, encouragement and lens changing words that will shift you from feeling overwhelmed to feeling energized and focused on your priorities.

Stop trying to balance everything, take a break and shift your focus to recharge and prioritize with relaxation, encouragement and positive words.
