Conscious loving ever after

Description

"More than 20 years ago, Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks's Conscious Loving changed the landscape of relationships with strategies for building a vital and lasting connection with a partner--and went on to become a modern classic. Now Gay and Katie have written a guide for conscious loving in the second half of life, designed to help us tap into the unlimited possibilities for intimacy and vibrancy in relationships from our mid-40s through our elder years. Midlife is a time, Gay and Katie explain, when we face a choice: to fold in on ourselves, staying settled in old routines and fixed beliefs, or to expand outward toward new horizons. With candor and compassion (and plenty of humor), they walk readers through the steps on that expansive path, exploring how the work we do to revitalize an existing relationship or form a new one is closely tied to the work of awakening our own creative essence. Drawing on their experiments in the "living laboratory" of their own relationship as well as stories from their clients, they offer breakthrough insights and practices to help us: Take blame and criticism out of our communications with those we love Use "presencing" to tap into the flow of intimacy in every moment Learn how to cope when relationships are touched by death and loss Have the best sex of our lives Written for those who are partnered as well as those who are single, and addressing same-sex as well as heterosexual relationships, Conscious Loving Ever After lights our way through the layers of unconscious relating that so many of us are caught in. From a set of powerful Fear Melters to a Ten-Minute Stuff Talk and a Ten-Minute Heart Talk, here are the tools we need to transform our relationships so we're not just surviving but thriving in our full capacity for love"--
