I was lucky to hear of this extremely useful concept during a poly event and it has helped me so much! It is basically a work-in-progress, a list of all the concepts, words and tools that have helped or might help you better navigate relationships.
I will try to make this article an index for all of these concepts. If you have some of your own, please write to me and tell me all about them. That way, others might find ways to improve themselves and their relationships.
So without further ado, I present to you the ever-evolving toolbox:
- date night with yourself
- the user manual
- leniency
- freakout list
- list of joy
- walk in their shoes
- journaling / letters without recipient
- gratitude journal
- bullet point arguments
This concept of the toolbox was presented to me by a wonderful human being, that I have had the privilege of getting to know and share ideas with. So many, many thanks to Mihai Chira for this (you can find him and learn more about him here)!
