Antonina Canal shares some personal growth exercises that aim to heal the relationship with the father figure. According to her, implementing these forgiveness and reconciliation tools will have positive effects on all relationships, romantic or otherwise, with men throughout your life. Learn more in this episode of Yes I can and it’s easy.
Antonina’s first advice is to avoid judging, criticizing and comparing the actions of a father. For many, this can be a challenge. In fact there is a theory of psychology that explains why people judge: mirror theory. This states that people judge and criticize some behaviors because they see themselves reflected in them, that is, that person reminds them of some lack or characteristic that they do not like at all.
In different episodes of Yes I can and it’s easy, Antonina explains that these situations can be used as an opportunity for growth. A self-assessment can be the solution to transform negative thoughts into positive ones, which can also be applied in different family relationships, such as the relationship with the father. When you judge your father, ask yourself: what action of his annoys you and why? How can you avoid falling into the same behavior?
Learn to implement this and other exercises together with Antonina Canal, in Yes I can and it’s easy to heal the relationship with your father and thus avoid repeating the negative patterns of his life. Also, discover more tools for personal growth in the weekly program Yes I can and it’s easy.
