The Relationship Vision Dialogue

Let's Talk About Sex, Baby

Let’s talk about sex, baby! A good marriage is best friends with passion. Without the passion, you just have a friendship. You are roommates or companions. Poor communication and a diminished sexual relationship are at the center of a troubled marriage and both are symptoms of the power struggle. In this episode, we look at sexless marriages and sexual withholding, what some of the contributors are, and share some information on how to address the pertinent issues.

The Switch That Turns The Light On

Different people give and receive love differently, and if your objective is to show your partner how much you love them, it makes sense to do it in a language they understand and in a way that is specifically meaningful to them. This way, you communicate awareness of their right to be separate, different, and distinct, with their own preferences, experiences, and values. So, learning to express love in ways that resonate with your partner will lead to a more harmonious relationship and will increase connection, safety, and intimacy.

Re-romanticizing Your Relationship

When the relationship matures, and the people in it are so connected and attuned, there is affection, restfulness, trust, and security. Stability is good. However, this state of satiation can sometimes lead to a lull, a sense of sleep that can rob the relationship of excitement, mystery, and intrigue. The relationship can flatline and this may lead to boredom. The solution is to re-romanticize the relationship. Though the romantic love stage ends, the romance can last a lifetime, and this is what makes a difference between married life being a chore and being a celebration.

Fostering Intimacy

One of the things people who are in committed relationships long for is a closeness of body, mind, spirit and soul. To know and be known at a level that is so deep that it’s like a mingling of souls and a sharing of hearts. Two hearts that beat as one. Finishing each other’s sentences. Perfect attunement. This is possible provided partners consciously seek to foster intimacy. In this episode, we share some insights around the topic of intimacy.

The Relationship Vision Dialogue

Now that the relationship vision has been crafted, it is important to deepen your understanding of what it means to each of you and what it looks like when you are living it out. That calls for communication. In this episode we teach you a skill called the 'Imago Dialogue'. We can guarantee you that if you can incorporate this skill into your relationship, your struggles with being heard and understood are over.
