Mid Life Crisis in Marraige

This blog attracts hundreds of visitors per month all of whom are looking for answers to deeper issues, many of them questionning their purpose in life. Like

• How can a husband survive his wife's midlife crisis?
• How to heal an estranged son?
• How do I deal with my husband's midlife crisis?

Those are three of the most common queries Man-o-pause receives each month. The pattern suggests crisis on many levels. Men, women and their offspring feel disconnected and misunderstood.

When you're in the midst of emotional pain, it's difficult to act rationally. You watch the racehorse of your mind whip around the track over and over again. This is when you need to STOP; step outside yourself and ask, "If I lost everything today, who would I be?"

It also helps to step away from your environment. That's why I'm recommending a visit to www.urbanyukon.com, a community of bloggers around the Yukon Territory looking for adventurous things to do.

If you've really had it, send your wife, husband, or teenager a one-way ticket. They'll return with a changed perspective.

Because their crisis is not about you.
