Read More »A relationship can develop in a myriad of ways. For some couples, a connection slowly builds over time, growing deeper and more meaningful each day; for others, a strong, powerful bond can set in almost instantaneously, and, on occasion, be a watershed moment in your own personal development. In today’s world, there’s a name for the latter: a soul tie. What Is a Soul Tie? A soul tie is an intense spiritual connection between two people that results in a mutual learning experience. The concept of a soul tie has gained steam on TikTok and among the Gen Z population, who are increasingly looking outside the bounds of organized religion for answers to life’s big questions. “The human mind consciously and unconsciously strives for feelings of safety and meaning by gravitating toward constructs that give shape and perceived understanding,” says relationship expert Megan Weks. “Younger generations are turning to spiritual concepts to find that meaning in their lives.” Relationship coach John Ryan De Oca feels this is especially true in light of the pandemic. “Socially, we’re at a point of spiritual awakening,” he says. “COVID [has made us realize] how connected we all are.” Meet the Expert • Megan Weks is a certified relationship coach and creator of The Manfunnel Method. • The founder of The Relationship Prescriber, John Ryan De Oca is a relationship expert and a board-certified Nurse Practitioner residing in New Jersey. So, how do soul ties factor into the moment?

While terms such as “soul tie” and “twin flame” might imply a connection is predestined or too powerful to be ignored, you should never allow that, or anything else, to minimize the agency you have in your own life and in the choices you make. “Keep your boundaries and standards high for who you allow in your life,” says Weks. “If they aren’t working toward a common goal that feels good to you or they are actually taking away from a goal you have for yourself, it’s a sign to stop engaging. Keep this in mind: Healthy relationships should, for the most part, offer peace in our lives—not confusion, fear and instability.” What’s also important to keep in mind: not every relationship, especially those rooted in romance and sex, has to be in your life forever. “It’s important to honor the experience of experience, of going out there and falling in love with different people, especially before we’re ready to commit to someone in the long term,” De Oca says. By maintaining a healthy perspective, you’ll be able to better absorb the lesson offered by your perceived soul tie connection, and then move on when the connection no longer serves you.
