Relational Needs
We all are born with a number of relational needs that form a crucial part of our psychological make-up and wellbeing. When they are all present and available we are at our emotional best but when one or more are missing may lead us to feeling vulnerable or insecure.
|
|
Acceptance – to feel accepted for whom we are as people, including our likes and dislikes, and our values and opinions.
Affection – to feel cared for through physical and emotional demonstrations of love and kindness.
Security – to feel physically and emotionally secure, supported and respected even when we dare to express our vulnerabilities.
Appreciation – to feel appreciated for whom we are as people and for the things we do voluntarily without expectations.
|
|
Approval – to feel a sense of belonging and approval for whom we are as people within our family and social environment.
Encouragement – to receive encouragement for the choices we make in life even if others do not approve of them.
Respect – to feel respected and valued as a person, regardless of our social status or our political, religious or beliefs.
Support – to feel mentally, physically or emotionally supported whenever needed even if at times we may find it difficult to ask for help.
