RELATIONSHIPS: THE WORK OF LOVE

“All of us want nothing more than to love and be loved. What could be more simple? Yet why is it so damn difficult to continually experience this in our relationships? It in my experience as a relationship therapist for the past 24 years that as much as we crave love, we fear it. Often these fears are associated with how we survived our childhoods and earlier experiences of men and women that were painful for us. Join me in an exploration of three key components to a healthy and satisfying primary relationship: Intimacy and Communication, Commitment and Monogamy and the inner work we might have to do to generate these states and steadfastly maintain them for the ones we love.

This seminar is for husbands, wives, lovers, fathers, mothers, sisters, brothers, sons, daughters and friends who want more closeness in their relationships.

HEALING THE ORIGINAL PAIN OF YOUR LIFE

Many of us are aware that we are stuck emotionally or spiritually somewhere in our journey through life. These stuck places may show up as unwanted and self-defeating behaviors or symptoms such as:

• unhealthy relationships
• relationship breakdowns
• an excessive need for money, position or power
• constantly seeking the approval of others and fearing rejection
• constant, unstoppable busyness
• workaholic tendencies
• loneliness
• explosive emotional outbursts with loved ones
• addictions
• family strife
• low self-esteem
• depression
• eating and sleep disorders

All of these conditions are expressions of a soul in too much emotional pain and fear, recycling it over and over again in the present day, often onto people and in situations that have nothing to do with the original wounds which produced it.

This seminar will gently and powerfully escort you into some of the most formative moments, relationships and events of your early life so that you can identify the original source of your emotional pain and fear and learn how to heal and release it at its roots. It is my personal and professional experience that doing so can free you up in the present day to live a qualitatively new and fresh life and not just some re-enactment of your past.
