CONSCIOUS RELATIONSHIPS
LEARN TO RESPOND WORDS CATHERINE CONNOLLY
D
o you find yourself in relationships where you don’t feel heard? Are you spending huge amounts of energy arguing or disagreeing with your partner or a loved one? Do you feel dissatisfied even when you’ve negotiated an agreement or one of you ‘gives in’? Perhaps your needs aren’t being met, or you’re yearning for an intimacy you thought you once had. Chances are, there are times when you feel as though you and your loved one don’t even speak the same language anymore. One or both of you are probably reacting rather than responding. Are you the accused or the accuser? Are phrases like “why do you…”, “why can’t you…”, “when will you…”, “how could you…” all too familiar? No matter how poor communication might appear, all people intend to connect meaningfully. Although some may come across as aggressive, blamefilled or resistant, what they are looking for is connection and validation. Right now, your relationship might
rather than react
be lonely, confusing and painful, but it doesn’t have to be; through learning how to consciously be in a relationship, Mind Matters Institute can guide you from pain to fulfilment. Anyone can be in a relationship, just as anyone can breathe, but, just as mindful breathing through yoga or meditation can open up a spiritual world of serenity and peace, so too can conscious relationships open up a world of joy and happiness. Research acknowledges that words only make up 7% of what we communicate, yet we naively attempt to use words to carry 100% of our meaning. Is it any wonder that we feel unheard or misunderstood! To be truly heard and validated is a sensual and tantric experience for both players; it leads to inspiration and harmony. In an exquisite molecular dance, harmonious communication resonates right through to a cellular level, bringing happiness and health. When our relationships are meaningful, and we feel valued and supported, we reap physical, emotional, sensual and
cerebral rewards. Put simply, for better or for worse, our relationships can affect our health. Many people put an enormous amount of effort into consciously trying to get fit or succeed at work, so why wouldn’t you put the same amount of conscious effort into your relationships, especially when science has proven that our intimate relationships are intrinsically linked to the health of our mind and body? There is an art and a science to consciously relating, and the Mind Matters Institute can show you how it is available to everyone. We can help you to transform what appears to be a futile relationship into a meaningful, blessed connection that affects every area of your life. Human beings are not meant to be alone, yet many live in relationships where they feel lonely and alienated from their loved ones. Imagine being able to step through confusion into a world of understanding and connection. www.mindmatters.me
