Couples Alive IV - Sustainability, Deepening and Drawing Closer

The Couples Alive series is for people in primary relationship who want more, and are prepared to go beyond the familiar to find it.

In the isolation of our own relationship, we may be so close to the struggles, so focused on details, that we miss the essence of our differences. We may fall into habits, initially intended to serve our partnership, that become intimacy-limiting conveniences and we may overlook the chance to pause and to appreciate who we are and what we have.

This program is a rare opportunity to come together with other couples in a peer-focused environment to explore, confront and attend to current and recurring relationship issues. Through this process each couple will learn to build a sustainable approach to cultivating their continuing growth.

Working in the whole group, in a foursome with one other couple, and with facilitators, each couple can 'roll up their sleeves' and meet their challenges. The skills learned in earlier sessions will be reviewed and commitments examined. 'Next steps' will be prepared, and resources will be offered to successfully sustain your loving.

Because of the nature of this program, participant numbers will be limited. As the working groups will be in fours (two couples) registration will be monitored to ensure multiples of four.

This program is for couples who want to:

• Cultivate sustainable interdependent connection in their relationship
• Expand and deepen the physical, emotional and spiritual foundation of their relationship
• Directly address issues in a safe and respectful environment
• Identify and practice ways to bring conscious expression to their loving
• Have the expression of their loving be an integral part of life together
• Gift themselves a 'relationship tune-up' with other like-minded people

Please Note:
1. The Couples Alive programs have been specifically designed to be taken in order. We strongly recommend that you take the programs in sequence.
2. Couples Alive I: Foundations is a prerequisite for all other parts of the series.
