Yes. On the coporeal level, this is just our nervous system that “hijacks” us. When we are triggered, our brain is flooded with chemicals, and we do/say things we don’t really mean to. This is something we can treat through self-soothing, taking an agreed-upon time out etc.
On a spiritual level, we get shown our own nature, and we need help from Creator, from our friends to rise above it. Every time we experience a failure at overcoming the ego, we have a greater motivation to ask for help. It’s like breaking our way out of Egypt, in the story of the Exodus – it’s a process and we have to keep working at it together- creating the strong enough desire to leave the ego, so we can be free once and for all! In the end, it works! So don’t lose hope, keep working on the connection and we will get there together 🙂
TalHi Richard,
Perhaps if you share these new goals for a loving, connected relationship with your partner, she will see how much there is to gain from Kabbalah, and how it can truly make life better.
I don’t know many women who don’t want their partners to make efforts to love them better!
These principles are universal, and all of Kabbalah is just about learning how to love. I’m sure that if more people could see that, they would openly embrace it.Goodluck!

Hi there!
Indeed it takes time and practice to rewire our brains and teach ourselves this opposite approach! It’s opposite to the ego, and everything we have become used to. So, we just need to keep practicing, and remember that the best way to change ourselves is with a supportive environment to remind and motivate us!
