This is why being single in this day and age can feel difficult, since dating is not what it used to be. It’s now more difficult to find what we’re looking for, which is ironic, seeing as we have so many choices at our fingertips (literally, ever since online dating has become the norm).
This is why it’s important to understand the complexities of modern dating and how to recognize (and avoid) toxic patterns that many of us sometimes fall prey to over and over.
This week’s episode of the Mainly Moonology Podcast, features the brilliant Rosalind Moody.
Rosalind is a writer, the former editor of the UK’s leading spiritual magazine Soul and Spirit, and the author of The Spark, a book about love, sex, and spirituality in today’s dating scene.
Together, Rosalind and I will be breaking down how to recognize toxicity and red flags when dating someone. How self-reflection and spiritual practices can will help you heal and grow, and why polyamory is a valid relationship structure.
