A Meditation on Love, Happiness, and Personal Satisfaction
A review of ‘Relationship Solutions’ by Sonia Frontera
Everybody is familiar with concepts such as peace of mind, or mental clarity, but it can be difficult to envision how such ideas might apply to your personal reality. Many individuals have a vague impression that their life is other than they wish it to be, but they feel powerless to make a change and they become dismissive of their feelings. Chances are, if you have some sense that you need to make a change, you should resolve to pay attention to that inner voice. But what happens if you don’t know how?
Finding the guidance you need
Dissatisfaction can come in many shapes and forms. We can be dissatisfied with our jobs, our home lives, and our relationship situation to name a few. It’s very difficult to seek out guidance because personal situations are so varied and unique that there can’t exist a universal message that works for everyone.
Sonia Frontera’s book ‘Relationship Solutions: Effective Strategies to Heal Your Heart and Create the Happiness You Deserve’ takes a very practical approach to the problem of offering guidance in a way that can be easily adapted to a variety of situations.
Although the book has a focus on relationships, the information contained within can be easily applied to any situation that provides unhappiness. The book is written in a clear and affable style that provides tremendous insights on very difficult concepts. It contains relatable anecdotes, and provides simple exercises that can help a person make radical changes to his or her personal perspective.
Our relationships are our lives
Human beings are social animals, and it behooves everyone to take the time to reflect on their relationships. The people you choose to surround yourself with have an enormous impact on every aspect of your reality, and sometimes the individuals who are closest to you can steal your chance at achieving personal satisfaction.
Frontera outlines a pathway to progress that helps provide clarity on relationships in general and helps you gain awareness on ways to seize greater control over your potential for happiness.
Every moment of life is precious, and it’s important to be mindful of your life and resist the inclination to sleepwalk through an existence of perpetual misery. Frontera’s book provides very gentle guidance for how to allow yourself to have the kind of awakening that results in personal power, personal control, and a concept of self-satisfaction.
Relatable, practical advice
This book is of equal value whether you are looking for a relationship, looking to get out of a relationship, or even when you’ve already achieved a situation of love and harmony. Too often, people become so occupied with the obligations of modern life that they don’t take the time to consider their own perspectives. In many cases, dramatic improvements to your quality of life are within easy reach and only require a few minutes of daily reflection in order to achieve them.
‘Relationship Solutions’ guides you down a path of personal reflection that provides insight in how to look at all your relationships in a different way. Understanding a concept as complex as interpersonal relationships requires time and dedication, and Frontera also provides practical exercises on mindfulness that will allow you to arrive at valuable personal revelations.
Give yourself permission to seek happiness
There is an old saying that you can’t take care of anyone else until you have taken care of yourself. If you are not mindful and deliberate about the things you believe in life, you open yourself up to manipulation. Many of the guiding principles that are taken as axioms within a culture were conceived of to control you rather than help you arrive at your most beneficial situation.
There is always an advantage to be gained by hitting the pause button on your life and questioning the foundational components of your reality. Think about what you believe, and take the time to see if there is evidence to support your assumptions. If there isn’t, then try something new!
Sometimes achieving the satisfaction you’ve always dreamed of can begin with something as simple as an almost insignificant personal choice. ‘Relationship Solutions’ by Sonia Frontera is the kind of book that shows you how to open doors to entirely different realities. If there is a little voice inside your mind that is curious to learn about what else might be out there, or how to make your current reality even better, then this is the book for you.
