ART OF RELATING

21st - 26th November

In "The Art of Relating" you will explore what it means to be human, and to live as the biological being that you are, with your specific genetics and your unique personal traits. We will also look at how your brain has developed based on your experiences, and how those experiences are affecting your relationships today - your relationship to yourself, your environment, your fellow human beings, as well as your beloved. Your level of personal fulfillment is directly reflected in the quality of your relationships.

In a fulfilling relationship, you are able to consciously act instead of react. You are able to live from a place of love and respect instead of fear and control. When we are triggered, we all react in different ways:

• You lose yourself in the other, your focus is on the other person’s business, you get needy and think you must control the other person.
• Or, you have a hard time to relate to the other, to commit, to be close and vulnerable, and you distance yourself.

In both cases, you are acting out of fear and not love. In the first case, the internal sentence is, ”I’m afraid of losing you”, in the second case the sentence is, ”I’m afraid of losing me”. Both reactions are very destructive for the relationship and damaging to all involved.

In ”The Art of Relating” we combine experience-based learning with theory. You will learn how you can move from reacting to acting consciously. By clarifying what in your past causes your brain and nervous system to "alarm" in your daily life today, you will be able to disidentify yourself from the past. This gives you the freedom to live the life of your choice. A life with healthy relationships without drama. A life in harmony and well-being. A life lived in freedom.
