The Biggest Elephant in the Room Right Now
Couples and relationship counselor Nick Haynes joined Better Way Today from the United Kingdom to share with us what he perceives to be the biggest elephant in the room right now—our biological need for emotional and relational connection.
Nick proposes that a benign, loving, and thriving future depends on us learning how to communicate verbally and share our vulnerable emotions and relational needs.
Humans are born with the need to form a close emotional bond with a caregiver, and this need for close emotional connections continues from cradle to grave. Biologically, humans are social mammals who benefit from a sense of belonging. At the same time, we are also individuals who enjoy independence and autonomy. We thrive in a state of interdependence, enjoying our individuality and having access to other human beings we feel close to.
In this Better Way Today segment, Nick illustrates the qualities and opportunities of deep vulnerability.
