Your relationships, how you interact with the world

When most people think about relationships, their thoughts often go to romance, friendships and family. Certainly those are some of our most powerful relationships, but not our only ones. Relationships include how we interact and connect with the world around us, including our work, nature, community, home, money, recreation and rejuvenation, our bodies, our spirituality and personal growth.

Our relationship or connection to our world has a direct correlation to our fulfillment within it.

Relationships with others

Relationships are with those in which we:

Are connected to by birth, adoption, fostering families and extended families

Invite into our lives friends, romantic partners

Find ourselves connected to through other choices we have made in-laws, colleagues
