A Weekend Relationships Workshop
Work Through The Barriers To Love and
Rediscover the Joy of Intimate Relationships
with teacher and healer, Tom Monte
Lifebridge
Sanctuary
Rosendale, New York
Thursday, June 4 Sunday, June 7
Program Description
The
problems you face in your relationship are not the barrier to
greater love. They are the path to it.
In this
workshop, you will learn how to work through the most
challenging issues of your relationship.
All
intimate relationships force us to grow. They give rise to our
most powerful needs and our deepest fears, many of which are
unconscious and impossible to control. This is because they come
from parts of our being that need our attention and yearn for
healing.
Your
partner has come to help you to do this healing. And you have
come to help your partner.
The
problem is that these wounded aspects of ourselves have a
language of their own and a defense system that result in
greater
conflict and separation, the very thing you dont want.
For
those couples who are willing to explore deeper aspects of their
inner lives, such times of conflict can become the basis for
growth, trust, and deeper love. But you must have the necessary
tools and support to do this.
This
workshop has been designed by Tom Monte to teach each of you how
to achieve greater love and intimacy in your relationship. In
this process, your personal truth will be revealed and honored,
and your dignity will be respected.
In
addition to the individualized work that Tom will do with you
and your partner, you will also learn:
-
The spiritual significance of romantic love.
-
Why relationships do not fulfill their promise, and how your
relationship can.
-
Why criticism doesnt work, and what does.
-
What every woman secretly wants.
-
What every man fears.
-
How you can get your needs met without complaining
-
The conscious and unconscious fears that are driving you.
-
The
defenses that hide your real feelings.
-
How
to know and speak your truth.
-
How to regain your self-esteem and power.
Here are
some testimonials from couples who have been helped by Tom
Monte:
My husband didnt want to make love anymore, and refused to
talk about it. He kept saying that there was no problem. He also
refused to get counseling. So I just went by myself. Tom taught
me how to talk to Joe from my heart and vulnerability, instead
of demanding things, which is what I
had been doing. It took some practice but we really started
connecting, just by me changing my way. Things have been so much
better. Oh, and we make love all the time now."
Millie, Springfield, MA
My girlfriend used to see Tom when he
came to the city. She badly wanted us to go together. My feeling
was that I wasnt about to sit there while she complained about
me to a stranger. But Tom was great to me. He pretty much got
where I was coming from, even though Im not much of a talker.
It turned out really good.
Peter, New York, NY
I literally dragged my husband to a relationships session with
Tom Monte. I was so fed-up with him being distant and
uncommunicative. I think the thing that really impressed Jeff
was that Tom had so much compassion and was not in any way
judgmental. In a few sessions, Jeff opened up more than he had
in over ten years of marriage. Tom helped us to see that we each
had a truth to tell, and that there was room for both of us to
exist in our relationship.
