Program Details

For couples of any length of commitment and any sexual orientation.

Deepening Your Love is a soulful, practical, and experiential couples retreat. In a safe environment of mindfulness and self-exploration, you will successfully transform many of the issues with which all couples struggle: intimacy, communication, conflict, meeting each other’s needs, and making time for pleasure and fun.

You will learn how to

  • Develop empathy, compassion, and curiosity about each other
  • Listen without reacting and interrupting
  • Share your feelings and thoughts so your partner wants to hear more
  • Turn frustrations into specific requests so your needs can be met
  • Use silence, meditation, and massage as easy and safe ways of loving each other
  • Explore lifelong beliefs about relationships and how changing them will grow you as a couple toward your dream partnership.

You will leave this program with more appreciation for each other, a win-win approach to conflict, and a deepened commitment to creating happiness in your life together.

Note If you have taken this program before, it continues to be updated and revised, so feel free to come again or join us for Creating Joy and Passion, May 27–30, 2011.
