"Real
love can be gutsy, passionate, fiery and honest as well as
gently, tender, joyous and peaceful. It is an intensity of
experience where in two separate beings connect in the furnace
of absolute open expression of the truth of our being. Love is
not a something that is going to last forever without needing
any attention. Loving relationships are living organisms, to
grow they need the constant nurturing and feeding provided by
open hearted, honest sharing of all our
feelings."

What is this? A way of building deep, loving relationships that are
rich and fulfilling on all levels of being: physical, mental, emotional
and spiritual.
Based on transcending the duality of judgements of good and
bad to find the divine in all things and experience the divine in each
moment. This offers us a healing of our shame (I am bad, wrong or
indadequate) and the opportunity to experience the richness of living
in the present moment, savouring our life.
Loving Relationships is
a way of living that is continually opening our hearts and enriching
our experience of wholeness and aliveness.

eight aspects of Loving Relationships:

Creating spaces for Love to flourish.

openness.

Some
Background
Many
of us grow up not understanding how to direct these energies to create
peace, happiness and contentment. We struggle to create ongoing
loving relationships that continue to stay vibrant, connected and
sources for enjoyment and positive growth.
Our
early experiences with our parents form an impression of what a
relationship is. We tend to live out this impression unconsciously,
even though it may not give us what we want.
It
can be easy to fall in love, but after the honeymoon period wears off,
loving relationships need lots of nurturing to keep them alive. Rarely
are long term loving relationships sustained by accident. In order for
love to continue to grow it helps to develop ways of continuing to
build connections., to nurture the love in your relationship and gain
skills to keep the love alive.
