Conscious Freedom Ticket
Here's a secret about love. Love is attachment.
Researcher Dr. Sue Johnson became fascinated by the behavior she witnessed in her couple's clients. They seemed hell-bent on arguing, and the emotional pain they experienced was profound. While couples therapy at the time focused on individuals finding emotional independence, she believed there was more to picture. She set out to study love and what produced the behavior; she found Bolby's theory of attachment and saw that it fit the same characteristics of adult romantic love. Since then, researchers and therapists have been using the word attachment in place of love, but they have forgotten to tell you it was the same thing.
If you are in love or experiencing love, you are undoubtedly attached, which means that you desire and crave a sense of predictability and safety in your connection. Yet predictability and safety are only sometimes assured. At least, that's what your body is telling you, and even still, the world is chaotic, nothing is a sure bet. Additionally it seems, the promise of forever means a lot less than it used to. We ultimately can't predict our partner or the world around us, though our attachment system would love it if we could, however, we can, choose to be in a higher form of love. The love that Sue Johnson wasn't studying but that Thich Nhat Han pointed to when he said, "You must love in such a way that your partner feels free."
Conscious Freedom is the ethic of understanding that our attachment system needs predictability and safety, yet remaining aware that all of us, including ourselves, are free to make choices in this world. When we allow our partners and ourselves to experience Freedom while staying compassionately aware of our attachment systems, we are in greater synergy with reality, We allow ourselves and our partners to prosper.
This weekly group is designed for anyone noticing difficulty in relationships with other humans. Examples could include feeling a rupture in your relationship or desiring more from your partner or significant other. Together, we will drop in with a short guided meditation to see what is present for us before briefly checking in in as group. Topic material, on Conscious Freedom will be presented before we enter an open group discussion with questions to guide our time together.
When:
7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
More dates to follow in febuary.
