Real Relationships – a 2-day workshop for couples
In this workshop we will be sharing our understanding of the the key elements of building a successful and passionate relationship.
Through our training in the Crucible Approach, our work with clients over many years and the three decades of our own relationship we have learned a lot about what does and doesn't work in relationships. Some of what we have learned runs against “common sense”. Did you know that closeness can be the enemy of intimacy? That intimacy gets harder the more important someone is to you?
Understanding these paradoxes and many more ideas like them will help you get clear about what's involved in building a strong, vibrant, passionate relationship. It will also help explain troubling issues like why seemingly happy couples “drift apart” or have affairs. The workshop will show you what you need to do to prevent these things happening to you or what to do to fix things if they have already happened.
The workshop will provide plenty of opportunity for you to explore these ideas privately with your partner, to discuss how they might apply to yourself and your relationship and to reflect on where that might take you. Although there will be some opportunity for group discussion, this is entirely optional – you don't have to say anything in front of the group if you don't want to.
These days two will act as a starting point for a stimulating re-think about yourself and your partner that will enrichen your relationship and your life. However you do need to be able to talk to each other! If your relationship is in such crisis that you can barely talk to each other this workshop is not for you – you should book a therapy session instead.
