Secrets for a Loving & Easy Relationship part 1 - The Option Institute Samahria Lyte Kaufman

option.org - Samahria Lyte Kaufman, the co-founder of The Option Institute, offers this webinar on the Secrets of a Loving & Easy Relationship.
The personal growth and development programs at The Option Institute are engaging, interactive and dynamic. We believe in experiential training versus conventional lectures and seminars. As a student, you are not an observer, but rather, an active learner and participant. One of the most popular self-help programs we offer is the COUPLES COURSE Program.
COUPLES COURSE
Rev Up your Relationship
Who doesn't want an even better relationship with their significant other? You may have a great relationship and simply want it to be deeper, more loving, more honest, more fun. On the other hand, your relationship may be in crisis.
COUPLES COURSE is a relationship enhancement course like none you've ever heard of. This course isn't a vacation whose benefits end when the trip ends. Nor is it a week to repeat mantras of love to one another that don't help when you're actually in an argument. This program gives you very specific tools and lasting strategies that will forever transform how you and your partner relate to each other.
The program is led by The Option Institute Founders, Barry (Bears) Neil Kaufman and Samahria Lyte Kaufman, who have themselves successfully navigated their own relationship of more than 50 years. They, together with other senior teaching staff, will help you and your partner rev up your relationship by making honest communication both safe and exciting, eliminating blame, increasing intimacy, handling disagreements with comfort and dismantling old beliefs and perspectives which get in the way of just being together and enjoying each other.
In CouplesCourse, you will acquire the following tools:
Keys to Closeness: Create a safe space together for truly honest communication
Moving Past the Past: Heal old hurts so you both can enjoy each other now
Intimacy Without Fear: Learn how you can always "plug in" to feelings of deep love, free from any fear or reservation
The No-Blame Game: No longer take what your partner does personally (and vice versa), which eliminates 90% of arguments
The Option Process® Dialogue: Use this vital technique to listen to one another in a whole new way
Principles of Happy Negotiation: Crucial steps to navigate disagreements and achieve real resolution -- without anger, hurt or resentment
Couples Course was an incredible week. The tools that I have learned will help me in my quest for a love for myself and my spouse and our relationship. It feels like it will be easy to be successful using the tools of dialogue, negotiation, deep loving and meaningful conversations, authentic commitments and trust of actions. I believe this week has been a life changing experience.

My husband and I have learned how to love each other in ways we never thought possible. We had a shut down in our relationship. He went his way, outside of our marriage and I went my way, to shut down emotionally and sexually. We chose not to give up on our marriage and look at our choices as a gift. We have begun anew and with that are all the possibilities we can achieve and have in an authentic and loving partnership.

Wow. I was up all night searching for help. I asked and the universe literally drop kicked me onto this video. I literally can not make this up when I say, although only part 1, this video was what I needed to see. I'm going to watch this video a few more times before moving on to the next ones, but my goodness I am so embarrassed to say the least. I just hope that I haven't ruined my current relationship.
Thank you so much to you and your husband! Regardless of how my current relationship develops, I can at least now see my part in this.

SO cool that you just uploaded this! I just finished 'Son-Rise: the Miracle Continues' and I was so moved by it. You, and your partner 'Bears', are heroes in my book! Going against the 'Establishment', and it's not even the 1960's anymore!
