Relationship Rescue

Hmmm...

What does Relationship Rescue mean? I've had time to ponder this over the last couple of weeks after deciding to offer a teleclass in July called Relationship Rescue. It's not about being rescued from a bad or unhealthy relationship. It's not about offering solace to those who are having a a hard time finding love. It's not about salvaging a connection that has lost its spark.

It's actually about all of that and more. It's about being able to release the emotions, energies, thoughts and patterns that keep us from having the love and connection we want. It's about healing the relationship between our bodies and our spirits so that we feel more in touch with the truth of who we are. It's about healing our relationship to the world which includes just about everything.

One thing that is so delightful about the teleclasses is that each student seems to get exactly what they need. We're not all learning to do things the same way, we're each getting a chance to explore our uniqueness and manifest more of what we need as individuals. It is delightful to see people discover their own truth!
Relationship Rescue is about looking in the mirror, not to find all the flaws but to see our real selves. It's not about fixing all the things that are wrong, it's about learning how to be where we are, which ultimately creates the space we need to make changes. It's about taking ownership of what we've created, admiring it even if it is challenging, unpleasant and unfulfilling.

Relationship Rescue is about bringing in more validation. It's about getting to know the complexity and majesty of being a spirit in human form.

Recently, I've found myself reflecting on something (an Aquarian) teacher once said to me...I'M NOT SURE EARTH IS ABOUT PEACE. I JUST DON'T THINK THAT'S WHAT WE'RE DOING HERE.

Can I tell you how much relief this brought to me? You mean I don't have to watch my P's and Q's and meditate on world peace every day? I don't have to devote my life to those less fortunate and give up on whatever slim happiness I might want to create for myself? You mean I can be my messy, experimental self and not get in trouble for being less than perfect? Can I really let go of this idea/dream that we will all get along and live in harmony some day? (which incidentally keeps me from enjoying the NOW in favor of some idealized future).

Relationship Rescue is about learning to relish what IS and move out of all the shoulds/shouldnts/control/perfection/improvement NONSENSE. Strangely enough, the byproduct of this kind of healing is PEACE.

Weird huh?

ps. speaking of relationships...

• I have decided to develop relationships in my neighborhood...in particular with folks who have children of a similar age. I want to gather together and create more community and support. This is not an easy goal since I tend to stick to myself most of the time.
• so...tonight, I come home from teaching the last FLUIDITY CLASS (ladies...you blow me away!!) and there's my lovely neighbor C with his daughter K who is a couple months older than my son.
• Long story short: the kids go wild playing, I learn more about C (fascinating life including a childhood on a sheep farm, 15 years in the army, gulf war vet, social studies teacher and now an entrepreneur...WHO KNEW?).
• We have amazing bonding experience and I end up thinking DID I JUST CREATE THAT BECAUSE 2 NIGHTS AGO I WAS THINKING I WANT TO KNOW THESE FOLKS IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD WITH KIDS.
• The happiest surprise is that I could have spent a good two hours more just learning about C, his wife lovely wife D (the corporate shark turned dairy farmer?) and the incredible vastness of his experience which delighted me with it's complexity.
• LIFE IS GOOD!! GET TO KNOW YOUR NEIGHBORS...YOU WILL BE SURPRISED AND DELIGHTED i hope...

RELATIONSHIP RESCUE!!!
