This is the first Workbench Exercise of our Building Relationship Skills Course.[1] This space is meant for you to reflect and write out your thoughts, which you can optionally save to your device or print. Note that nothing you write below gets saved by our site.

These workbench exercises will help you to slow down and more fully examine the way you communicate with your partner. Learning about relationships is one thing, but here is where the real work begins.


Your Workbench Exercise notes will be helpful as we move through the course, and can also serve as something to reflect back on in the future.

PS: We’ll be doing more Workbench Exercises throughout the course, so it may be helpful to save all your notes in one place (like a note app on your phone, or one place for your printed copies).
