Description: There’s nothing like intimate relationship to bring up every unresolved issue you’ve got. While this can make being in relationship exceptionally challenging, it also offers a unique opportunity for healing. In this workshop you'll learn how to connect and communicate in new ways. You will be guided in mindfulness to acquire a subtle and potent understanding of how your body and beliefs influence your ability to give and receive love. You’ll learn to express and sustain your love through practicing skills in Nonviolent Communication NVC, including listening with empathy, understanding your needs, making requests, and expressing appreciation. For many of these exercises you will have the opportunity to work through specific issues for which you and your partner would like resolution. Overall, you’ll awaken an ability to give and receive love with a new depth and fullness.
