How To Hold Space For Someone

What does it mean to hold space for someone? To hold space for another is to allow somebody the opportunity to openly express what they feel, to be who they are, and to be vulnerable, even though what they say may push our buttons or be difficult to hear. Staying objective is a powerhouse of strength that will allow us to see the situation unfolding in front of us for what it is without getting pulled into the current of the emotional river. Holding space is a gift that we can give the other person and is how we can truly be there for somebody else and allow healing to occur. To afford the other person the opportunity to truly be themselves in an environment that is safe is the cornerstone of a healthy relationship, whether it's with an intimate partner, our children, a good friend or a coworker.

The world needs more unselfish people

I wish I had known and understood this. 30 years of talk therapy and I was never taught how to communicate in healthy ways. To the detriment of my marriage to the person that I love the most. Thank you for sharing this in a way that has made it easy to understand. I will revisit this often.

Stay objective. Ground & center myself. Good advice thank you.

I love your video Renee, thank you. What beautiful and positive energy you have. I don’t think you need any images behind you or to illustrate anything. This means a distraction but just having you talk allows the listener/watcher to really take in what you are saying. It’s your truth and it’s real 🙏🏼💖💚

[@virgilvandoorn4733]

Thank you so much for this video ❤ But what if the person in question your holding space for doesn't see your holding space for them and keeps fighting their self it's hard beeing objective in dramatic negative situations would like to know what to do..

[@michellemcdonnell5197]

Well said. Thankyou

[@violetteporcher4930]

This is inspiring Renee. Many thanks for sharing :)

[@markcafebrown2883]

Are you going to make more content. You are so missed

[@MountainofInspiration]

Great content. Why did you stop uploading new videos? I hope that all is well you and your loved ones

[@marytufts1163]

Again--great video--truly great video but you NEED to do something besides have a video of you talking. Adding other photos, images, illustrations, etc. really helps illustrate this EXCELLENT subject. You want to have the greatest impact and your message is absolutely excellent but can be soooo boring unless you capture the "instant" mind--with photos, short video illustrations, etc.
