Ep 3: Why Do We Fight or Avoid Talking About The Affair?
In the negative cycle we each play a part in perpetuating and maintaining it. When we encounter our feelings the action tendencies we decide to take are how we maintain the cycle. So when I said that we feel hurt (primary), so we show anger (secondary), then we DO SOMETHING to try and take care of it, solve it, and bring ourselves and our relationship back to homeostasis. This is the part we play. There are four types of interactions within the cycle or four ‘parts’.

Has it been hard to break out of the negative feedback loop?
If you have listened to our podcast you are familiar with the patterns of interaction that keeps couples stuck in the healing process.
It's what makes communication so dang hard! And ultimately what makes healing together pretty impossible.
Yesterday I outlined the 4 crucial components to Healing Broken Trust completely.

Today let's talk about the Application stage of the puzzle.
The reason so many struggle to get out of the negative patterns of interaction AKA Negative Feedback Loop is because:
You need help taking the head knowledge and making it heart knowledge.
No other counselor, therapist, coach, program, book, or vacation can do this for you like we can.
But why not?
Simple, it's not taught in school.
Let me give an example...
I was speaking with a man the other day who said that his therapist told him that he needed to forgive his wife.
The therapist said he needed to write it down on a piece of paper and bury it in the backyard and never bring it up again.
Sadly this is common. Have you been told this before? How would that work for you?
The problem is, not only is it extremely dismissive of his feelings and needs, but it's going to make the underlying issues that caused the affair so much worse!
But bless the therapist's heart he was doing his best!
Frankly, you deserve better. So does everyone you love and ever will love because this is your whole life we're talking about here!!
Over the last 16 years we've worked with couples 1-on-1 and in workshops and have helped them actually heal.
We know what other helpers don't know.
We know that you can't do marriage work when trust is still broken....that means a vacation won't fix it.
We know how to heal your emotions so you can actually be present with your spouse so trust can be restored....boy it's hard to talk when you're upset.
We know how to give you long term results so you don't stay stuck in patterns that give you the same old results over and over.
There's so much more...
The point is you need the right person, with the right skills and knowledge, to help you apply the information you're learning.
And someone who knows how to get to the heart of the matter so you're not spinning your wheels wasting years of your life.
