Love - Delight or Fright?
Detailed Programme
What comes to your mind when you hear the word LOVE: delight, fright
or a mix of both?
The word Love invokes deep yearnings but also deep fears of getting
hurt and disappointed. The search for love motivates us to move beyond
our boundaries and to unfold our potential. The fright of love closes
the heart, makes us bitter and withdrawn.
Delight or fright in love depends on our answers to some basic questions
- How much do we love and appreciate us or depend on others for
recognition and affection?
- How much do we enjoy the closeness of a loved one and are able
to delight in time on our own?
- How much do we accept us as men and women and welcome and respect
the other pole?
- How much power do we give to old feelings and habits or approach
others with openness and curiosity?
In this course we will look at the underlying structure of fright,
shift the resonance with it and strengthen the side of delight. We will
focus on the following themes:
-
I live and love knowing my true purpose in life.
I am acknowledged, validated and seen as I fulfil my life's purpose
-
I move towards what I really want in life and
use the opportunities at its best
-
I recognise and accept that my sense of well-being
and radiance depends on my own inner resources, and I am free of the need
to identify it with the people or circumstances who trigger it in me
-
I am grateful for the gift of love
-
It's wonderful being a woman/man, and I live
it on all levels
-
I am fully grounded and balanced. From my centre
I meet other people with respect, confidence and self-esteem
-
I maintain a clear perspective on what is happening
in my relationships, free of emotional distortions and habitual responses
-
I draw those people into my life that add to
my vitality, joy, love and fulfilment and whose life I enrich through my
qualities.
-
Each day, I deal with my partner lovingly, warmly
and affectionately
-
I keep a healthy balance between closeness and
distance, giving and receiving
