Psychologist Carl Jung stressed the importance of being conscious to the patterns of the unconsciousness as a way of growing personally. Determining triggers, habitual reactions, and conflict themes, people can have a clear understanding of what makes relationships fail. These patterns can be clarified by journaling or therapy, or by guided introspection, so that the partners realize why they respond in a particular manner, and so they will not inadvertently recreate destructive patterns.

The First Hour Controls Everything : During a neuroscience workshop I attended hosted by researchers affiliated with Harvard University, one sentence completely changed my perspective on daily life: “The first hour after waking up determines your brain’s chemistry for the rest of the day.” At first, I thought that sounded dramatic.
