2 day workshop: Exploring the Foundations of Intimate Relationships
Relationships are the very essence of human existence. From the moment you are born and throughout life, you continously develop intimate connections. Intertwined in this ‘tapestry of life’, we are social beings. Interconnected and interdependent on one another.
We all yearn for relationships rooted in authenticity, trust, and love. Yet we often find ourselves repeating patterns based in fear and disconnection.
This workshop invites you to investigate your ingrained beliefs and patterns towards relationships. But most of all it invites you to explore a heart-based way of relating that emphasizes love and presence as the very foundation.
When you consciously start to relate to another person in an intimate and vulnerable way, a deeper dimension of your being starts to awaken en rise to the surface. The relationship serves as a mirror, in which you start to recognize a reflection of your own existence.
In this process, you may start to wonder:
- What is a conscious relationship?
- What is the purpose of relating?
- What is Love?
- How do I relate to myself?
- Who am I?
- Why is it that the closer I get to someone, the more challenging the relationship will become?
- How can I shift from patterns of fear and disconnection, towards openness, intimacy and love?
- How can the relationship serve as a catalyst for growth and awakening?
