CONNECTION STEP 2: CURIOSITY

The beginnings are when we feel the most excitement. New job, new opportunities, new love, new baby, rediscovering ourselves.

Over time, that excitement can shift into an array of possible experiences: routine, predictable, satisfying, deeper intimacy, etc.

What sets the course to deepening the connection is curiosity. When we can remain or become curious again, we automatically set ourselves up to engage.

Curiosity requires us to pay attention, to care, and to interact. These are all crucial elements of building connection with others (and ourselves).

By spending a few moments in reflection of our current relationships, we can see whether we have maintained a level of curiosity or not and how that has affected the relationship as a result.

As always, pointing your attention to yourself is an empowering step to shifting your connection patterns.

Ask yourself the questions you’ve never spent time answering. Open yourself up to prod and play with those in close relationship to you.

Practice the art of discovery, for it will awaken the curiosity within you.
