What could be better than a balanced, healthy, and happy romantic partnership? If you’ve been looking to learn more about how yin and yang energies affect your love life, you’re in the right place. In this article, we’ll walk you through what it means to have too much yin, too little yang, and vice versa in a relationship. Plus, we’ll teach you how to balance your energy as a couple so you can work towards achieving peace and harmony.
Things You Should Know
- Yin (“feminine” energy) and yang (“masculine” energy) are present in everyone, and when balanced, they promote peace and harmony in a romantic relationship.
- A couple with balanced yin and yang energy listens and supports each other equally, ebbing and flowing from these roles depending on their needs.
- Balance your couple’s yin and yang energy by leaning on your partner, offering support, communicating openly and honestly, and embracing your individuality.
Steps
Section 4 of 4:
Balancing Your Yin & Yang Energies
-
Communicate openly and honestly with your partner. Being aware of your partner’s physical and emotional needs and your own makes you better able to solve problems. When both partners feel listened to and supported, their yin and yang energies work in harmony to resolve before they build into something that could become damaging to their relationship. [9] X Research source
- What to Do: Make time to communicate openly and honestly with each other everyday. Whether it’s discussing what’s been on your mind over dinner or listening to your partner vent before bed, you’re promoting healthy interdependence (the ability to need and be needed by your partner).
- Listening is a key characteristic of yin energy while vocalizing your needs is a key characteristic of yang energy. When both partners listen to each other’s needs sexually and emotionally, they can achieve equilibrium and harmony.
-
Accept and give support to your partner freely. A couple where one partner constantly gives support but doesn’t get any back is often doomed to fail. Alternatively, when a couple feels comfortable leaning on each other equally, no one's needs are overlooked. [10] X Research source
- What to Do: Reach out to your partner when you’re in need of support, and let them know they can come to you to do the same. It’s critical that both partners know that asking for help or showing their vulnerable side isn’t a sign of weakness but strength.
- Wearing feng shui colors such as green and orange, or decorating your bedroom according to Feng shui principles may help to bring balance to your couple and home!
-
Express yourself authentically. The more you stay true to yourself by embracing your own needs and wants, the more you balance your yin and yang energies. Being in a healthy relationship doesn’t mean melting into the same person; it means pursuing your own interests and supporting your partner to do the same. This keeps your relationship in flux and stops it from becoming stagnant or boring. [11] X Research source
- What to Do: Have fun exploring new passions , like taking a pottery class or picking up a new sport like tennis. With you and your partner taking on new and exciting activities, you’ll have plenty to discuss!
- Feng shui sounds, such as wind chimes, may help balance you and your partner’s chi.
-
Practice yoga. Not only is yoga a great way to stay in shape, but it’s also an excellent way to balance your yin and yang energy. Yoga synchronizes your mind and body, allowing your yin and yang energies to flow equally. [12] X Research source
- What to Do: Take a beginner’s yoga class with your partner. Sharing this activity with your significant other will help you to bond and balance your chi simultaneously—it’s a win-win!
- Taking couple’s sound bath is another fabulous way to balance you and your partner’s yin and yang energies at the same time.
