Essential Practices for Couples

If You Aren't Growing Together,You're Growing Apart

You can have good relationship tools
You can have great intentions…. But without understanding and shifting your core relationship patterns,
You can stay stuck in conflict and create the relationship you want

Are you ready to create the
extraordinary relationship you desire?

This workshop is for:

Couples who are stuck in conflict and want more ease
Couples who want to move through distress to greater love
Couples who want to deepen their connection and communication
Couples who are willing to do their own personal growth work
Couples who want to strengthen the foundation of their partnership
All Couples who are in commited relationship

We know all the couples can learn the skills necessary to have extraordinary relationship if they are willing to do the work.

We also know that it’s not just about the tool-Its about shifting core patterns, habits and bringing awareness and love to the stuck places in ourselves and each other.

The Biggest Takeaway We Want for You is This:

To get out of where you are stuck, you have to go in.

If you are beating yourself and your partner up by having the same conflicts over and over again, you are stuck in the same pattern. You can’t really hear each other, you can’t meet each other’s needs, and it is going to impact every area of your life negatively – your happiness, your health, your family, even your finances.

You have to GO IN and shift the core of your relationship dynamics.

The best part is that you can learn how to do this. We are all born with the ability to love, but the dysfunctional patterns of being in relationship get established early on. What you need to unravel these patterns is a willingness to do your own work, to share vulnerably with your partner, and to commit to the container of your relationship to hold both of you in your personal and spiritual growth.

Your wounding happened in relationship, your healing can also happen in relationship. When we GO IN to whatever is happening is where there is a possibility of healing. This is the essence of Transformative Loving®.
