Committed Couples – Achieving Lasting Love
 Do you like your partner? Do you respect and appreciate your partner? Is it your honor and privilege to meet your partner’s needs and accept them for who they are? Can you see things about your partner that you might want to change, yet still accept them where they are, their whole package, flaws and all? Are you comfortable being vulnerable with your partner? Do you trust your partner completely?
You are probably here on this page because you or your mate has answered no to one or more of the above questions.
Tony Robbins said this about relationships:
"The purpose of a relationship is to magnify the human experience. Unmanaged, nothing can give you greater pain. With loving focus, nothing can give you greater joy."
The reason I bring this up is because love is a choice, it is not just something that happens to you. In long term relationships, you are sometimes given enormous opportunities to learn to fall in love with your partner all over again. During difficult times, you can CHOOSE to feel pain, hatred, hurt, anger, and resentment and you can also CHOOSE to forgive and love. Now, I’m all for maintaining strong, but flexible boundaries. I’m not talking co-dependency here. I’m talking about the highest form of spiritual relationships.
This is Real Intimacy – Into Me See. Do you SEE into one another? Do you SEE your soul purpose in this relationship? Is there faithfulness not because you demand it, but because you love in a way that you honor your partner? Can you trust each other? Can you trust yourself? Do you hear your own heart and follow it? Can you listen to your mate, with a loving, compassionate, non-judgmental heart?
At this very moment, you may have zero faith that your relationship can be saved. I believe that relationships are the core of our personal growth, and that this growth is reflected in the way we respond to others. You might not believe it now, but you CAN re-invent your relationship. I am here to help you. Relationship coaching can be done by phone, skype or in person. Click here to contact Lori re coaching.
In the movie, Shall We Dance, Susan Sarandon’s character says this about marriage:
"We need a witness to our lives. There are a billion people on the planet... I mean, what does any one life really mean? But in a marriage, you're promising to care about everything. The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things... all of it, all of the time, every day. You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it. Your life will not go un-witnessed because I will be your witness'."
I feel moved every time I read that quote, because I believe there is nothing more precious, more honest, than to be in a mutually loving, spiritual partnership.
Coaching is for you if you are in a relationship that needs a boost, or in a one that is in serious trouble...on the verge of extinction.
Mending broken hearts is the first step, being a loving, compassionate witness to each other’s life is the journey. |
