How great would it be to feel safe with others? Safe to be yourself emotionally and physically.
Feeling safe with someone is a profound state of being that encompasses both physical and emotional security. Build your calming box foundation of peace by learning and practising.
It’s the assurance you can fully be yourself without fear of judgment or harm. In a world where vulnerability is often viewed as a weakness, finding someone with whom you can let down your guard and express your true self is a rare and precious gift.
Physical safety is the most basic form of security in any relationship. It’s the confidence you can be physically close to someone without feeling threatened or exposed.
This includes feeling comfortable in their presence, confident they will respect your boundaries and never intentionally harm you.
Whether it’s holding hands, sharing a long hug, or being in the same space, feeling physically safe with someone lays the foundation for deeper emotional connections.
Emotional safety is where the essence of feeling safe with someone lies.
The knowledge you can open up and share your innermost thoughts and feelings without fear of rejection or betrayal. This level of trust is built over time through consistent communication, empathy, and understanding. Be alert to those who hold space for you and support you consistently.
When you feel emotionally comfortable with someone, you can be vulnerable without feeling exposed, knowing that they will honour your feelings and respond with kindness and compassion.
Feeling safe to be yourself in a relationship is liberating. It’s how you find your freedom. Being supported and accepted.
Able to express your opinions, preferences, and quirks without censoring yourself or worrying about how you will be perceived.
It’s about being accepted for who you are, flaws and all, and knowing that your authenticity is valued and appreciated. This sense of acceptance fosters a deep sense of intimacy and connection, as both partners are able to let down their masks and show their true selves to each other.
Feeling confident is about accepting yourself. Embracing your strengths and weaknesses, owning your mistakes, and learning to love yourself unconditionally. When you cultivate self-acceptance, you become less reliant on external validation and more confident in your own worthiness.
The opportunity to keep building your foundation of calm on your own terms. Using your toolbox of knowledge to learn and grow.
This strengthens your ability to be vulnerable and authentic in your relationships, as you no longer feel the need to hide behind a facade of perfection.
Building a safe and supportive relationship requires effort and intentionality from both partners. Actively listening to each other, validating each other’s feelings, and being willing to work through conflicts with empathy and respect. To build calm through being comfortable being uncomfortable. Trusting your foundation of calm.
A willingness to let go of ego and prioritize the well-being of the relationship over being right or winning arguments.
Feeling safe with someone is about more than just physical and emotional security—it’s about finding a sanctuary where you can truly be yourself without fear or reservation. It’s a journey of self-discovery and mutual acceptance that deepens the bonds of love and intimacy.
