Our desire to love and be loved is central to the human experience.
Our longing for connection begins in early attachment patterns as infants and is essential for health and happiness. Longing for love is also a longing for an awakening of the heart and the self. Yet our ego often defends against love because it fears surrender and being hurt.
At Life Design Centre, we invite you to explore your patterns in relationships and help you experience all that is within you—the power of hope, your sexuality and passion, creativity, generosity, and tenderness along with your fears, your dependency, your need for control, and the emptiness you may feel. Love is not for the faint of heart. It requires authenticity and awareness of your deepest fears and pain. We will work with these concepts and explore their origins. A healthy relationship requires an understanding of how to be self differentiated but also create a sense of oneness with a partner. Evolving emotionally to love yourself and experience the love from others- that you deserve- requires courage, faith, and fearlessness. The relationship you want exists but the heart of intimacy begins with you.
