It’s tough being in relationship with someone, even if it’s the one you love. Inevitably there will be ups and downs in life and this is why the marriage vows emphasise being there for each other in sickness and in health, for richer or poorer.
In a relationship workshop I attended with my now Hubby early on, the first teaching was that we are not perfect and so we should not expect perfection from each other. It set us up well! The book that encapsulates this concept poetically is ‘Perfect Love, Imperfect Relationships’ by John Welwood.
The Hakomi HEART training is focused on mindfulness and compassion for yourself and your partner. I trained in HEART and I include what I learned in my Celebrancy+ packages to help couples find an even deeper emotional understanding of themselves and each other in marriage.
