When we love our parts and they trust our leadership, they don’t have to distort our perception of our partner or take over and attack them. They are free to care about our partner’s needs because they aren’t starving themselves. They can lavish our partner with affection because they have plenty to spare. Thus, the issues that most couples struggle with—expressing affection, respectful communication, and sensitivity to the other’s needs—all flow naturally from a well-fed, Self-led inner system.
