Just for Couples: The Art of Relating

Is the Love and Passion You Once Felt for Your Partner Missing From Your Relationship...

Let The Art Of Relating Show You and Your Partner How To Rediscover the "Love of Your Life" with Techniques and Tools That Last a Lifetime

He's in a bad mood so she gets in a bad mood. She uses a tone in her voice and his tone quickly changes to mimic hers. He looks at her and wonders if they'll ever make love again. She looks at him and wonders why she feels so alone.

When you're part of a couple, you often don't realize what a profound affect your actions have on your partner's emotions and well-being. What you do know is that you're bored or even angry. Your sexual interest may be nonexistent. You may even begin to question your relationship altogether, as painful as that is.

The Art of Relating is a 3-weekend training course for couples that want to get "it" back... those incredible feelings of aliveness, passion, respect and love and friendship that made your relationship so special to begin with. The techniques and tools you'll learn in this course will help you keep the love and passion burning long after the course is over - in fact, you can apply them every day of your life. (Now that's a lot of loving!)

Remember the loving looks you used to give to each other? You can get it back. Remember what he did to give you goose bumps? You can get it back. The way she made you laugh until you cried? Back. The way he held you when time had no meaning? Back!

When you think about it, many of us spend more time, money and energy on advancing our careers than we do on our relationships. We tend to think that knowing how to create and sustain an intimate relationship is an innate part of us. Sorry to say, it's not. And that's what leads to so much unhappiness.

However, if you believe your relationship is worth saving, then start training!

Three Weekends. A New Life Together, Forever

The Art of Relating training course consist of three weekends, one weekend per month. You can participate in individual weekends, however the three weekends create an important sequence. The first weekend is essential and a pre-requisite for the other two.

Weekend One: Beyond Infatuation

This weekend allows you to look at your relationship as the space between the two of you. You have a chance to examine this space – is it big or small? Is it clean or cluttered? Is it nourishing or suffocating? You will then create a "safe space" in which to express your feelings, both positive and negative. This constructive communication helps to clear the space, creating room for each partner's thoughts and feelings to be heard, understood and accepted. The process creates the base for "alive" togetherness.

Weekend Two: Beyond Crisis

This weekend is lead mainly outdoors, where different challenges and ‘created crises' occur. You learn how to deal with difficult situations - together - while cooperating instead of experiencing the usual patterns of ‘I can deal with it alone' or ‘I can't handle it – s/he should handle it'. Learn to appreciate each other's strong points, accept each other's weaker points and trust each other's leadership when needed. This training helps you deal with challenging situations in the "real world."

Weekend Three: Aliveness and Passion

This weekend revolves around intimacy, sexuality, joy and excitement and shows you how to bring them back into your relationship. Through communication exercises, sensual awareness processes and soft bodywork mixed with games and humor, you learn more to ‘play in your relationship' instead of ‘work on your relationship.' Couples tell us that they leave the weekend with their passions reignited and their love stronger than ever.
In between the weekends, each couple receives home assignments and exercises to help integrate and implement the training's material in daily life.
