Having healthy relationships and a strong support system leads to a greater sense of belonging and increased mental and physical well-being. Build positive connections by practicing open communication, being supportive, honest and respecting boundaries.
Though all relationships are different, all healthy relationships involve trust, communication, boundaries and support. Healthy relationships help you thrive, support you in achieving your goals and honor all your boundaries. These relationships involve a level of independence. You are still your own person outside of the relationship and are supported in maintaining that identity.
We all have more to learn when it comes to cultivating healthy relationships with everyone we care about, including significant others, family and friends. Take a moment to learn more and consider sharing this information with someone you care about.
