That Course For Couples - (Enhancing Your Connection Together) This 7-day course is for couples who have been together for at least a few months. It focuses on sharing the benefits of having fun, supporting each other, being affectionate, and deepening intimacy. It requires both of you to take part in reflective practices, exercises with pen and paper, and mini meditations. You absolutely need 20 minutes per day where you both can spend this time undisturbed, with no noise, where you can concentrate fully. You will be fully engaging with your partner in ways that are both familiar to you, as well as new and refreshing for you.

Day 1 - First Encounters

We’re nurturing the foundations first. Reconnecting you both with some, warm, gentle and loving thoughts, feelings and memories. The second phase starts from Day 5 onwards, where we start using exercises, rituals and tools which help us stay aligned with doing things that those in happy and lasting relationships do.

Day 2 - Your Sweet Spot That You Share

Today’s exercise helps you recall and appreciate a moment that you have shared together. A moment that you still treasure to this day, which your partner may well have forgotten about until now. This is about recalling that exact moment where there was a snapshot of sweetness. Then the foundations are set for phase 2, where we start using exercises, rituals and tools which help us stay aligned with doing things that those in happy and lasting relationships do.

Today we dive into the things that make you tick, the things that matter to you right now, both as a couple nearby, and when you’re geographically separate from one another. We explore some basic science that helps us nurture our well-being so that we can bring this into an intimate relationship in the service of enhancing the well-being between the both of you.

Day 5 - Meaningful Connection Rituals

Today we explore ways of enhancing meaningful connection for the both of you together. We do this with the power of mini rituals. I call these Meaningful Connection Rituals. They can help strengthen the connection that you already have with your partner. They also provide the benefits of having fun, supporting each other, being affectionate, and deepening intimacy.

Day 6 - Your Non-Negotiable & A Check In

Today you are going to explore the idea of a non-negotiable in your relationship. This is something that you both would like to share in your relationship. Your non-negotiable will be a larger action that you commit to. Not many couples consciously think about what their non-negotiable is for maintaining a vital relationship, let alone commit to maintaining this habit. Towards the end, there is also the opportunity for the creation of a Check-in Ritual.

Day 8 - Pulling It All Together

So, let’s pull everything together. It’s so important to have a detailed recap on what we will have covered, not only is this a nice thing to appreciate, but it’s essential to have some clear action points to be reminded of, a set of call-to-actions, that you both get to choose together. All this is in the service of enhancing the meaningful connection between you both, as well as being part of the change that’s going on in the world right now.
