Home Actress Esther Perel HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers May 2024 Esther Perel Instagram - Today marks the first day of Mental Health Awareness Month. And while it’s important to recognize the strides we’ve made in normalizing conversations around mental health, we also must acknowledge how individualized the conversation has been. How such an emphasis on “self-care” can actually make us more isolated and alone, the focus heavily centered on the self, the individual. What’s lost here is the mutuality of relationships—the reciprocity, the way that you weave fabric between people who are relying on each other, the healing capacity of the collective. Feeling personally and communally supported and connected is a key component to feeling good. Intimacy and human interaction have a direct correlation to our mental health and longevity. Relational health must be a focal point of our mental health approach going forward. After all, the quality of relationships determines the quality of our lives.

Esther Perel Instagram – When the dust settles, what remains? Weaving together the voices of veterans, Moral Injuries of War is a visionary production that brings the untold stories of war to the American public. Hosted by @NationalSawdust, this immersive experience forges new ways to contemplate and heal from war through testimony, movement, and public conversation.

I am honored to join this production by co-hosting a live conversation with veterans and war journalists with artist, psychologist, and my husband, @jacksaulofficial . The program will close with an exploration of embodied action, led by Leslie Salmon Jones and Jeff W. Jones of Afro Flow Yoga®️.

Tickets are available through the link in my bio. We hope to see you there!
Esther Perel Instagram – “I miss my mother… but I’m also happy she’s gone. I’ve had a life that I would not have had if she was still here. How do I reconcile these feelings?”

Standing and shaking, surrounded by thousands of people, the woman who asked this during a recent Q&A stared at me waiting for an answer. I didn’t have a simple one. The collective “Mmmm” in the room—that ineffable sound of recognition, empathy, and kindred pain—was evidence of how many people related to her dilemma. I did, too. 

Relational ambivalence is the experience of contradictory thoughts and feelings—of love and hate, attraction and disgust, excitement and fear—toward someone with whom you are in a relationship. It’s intrinsic to all relationships, including the very first: with your mother. 

In my latest newsletter, I explore this question further, centering on my personal relationship with my mother. Within it, I offer insights that helped me navigate the complexities of holding contradictory feelings towards her, a dynamic that profoundly influenced the foundation of our relationship. To read this month’s newsletter, visit the link in my bio.

Let’s turn the lens on you: 

Do you, or did you, experience relational ambivalence with your mother? How did it show up for you? What are the positive qualities you see in yourself that come from your mother? The less-than-lovely qualities?
