Love and the Shadow

Looking after intimacy in your love-relationship
A workshop for couples

(2-7 days)


There are two aspects to this workshop for couples: your love for your partner, and the shadows that are bound to be there because you are human! Our relationships can grow and blossom if we appreciate both aspects.

The shadows
Intimate relationships are usually born in a mixture of love, need and sexual desire. Love and desire sustain intimacy as long as nothing else is in the way, but in time life casts inevitable shadows: hidden fears arise, desire fades, work takes over, unforeseen personality traits emerge in your partner, changes happen through having children... If you don't know HOW to be with these shadows, they tend to gradually diminish the intimacy between the two of you. Often then you simply feel not as alive with each other as you would like, until one or both of you begin to question your relationship. It does not have to be this way. Your shadows can become a way to open to each other more deeply than ever.

And love!
Your love-relationship can invite you both into such rich and mysterious experiences of intimacy that the shared adventure of being together is what it really should be - the dearest and most fulfilling aspect of your life. The workshop is designed to open this path for you and to show you how your relationship can become a relaxed and nourishing sanctuary of intimacy in which you naturally inspire, surprise, support, heal and celebrate each other. Being together becomes your sacred journey of awakening and self-realization.

The lesson to be learned is HOW TO LOVE. Your relationship is your golden opportunity. It can bring out the magic hidden in your being, and it shows you what you have to befriend and heal, in yourself and with your partner. This experiential Art of Being® workshop teaches you to bring your whole being into your relationship. The processes include verbal and nonverbal encounters with yourself and each other, touch and sensitivity explorations, guided meditations and trance journeys, and deep core learning in the Art of Being circle facilitated by Alan.
