Love with Intention - From Conflict to Connection

Love with Intention - From Conflict to Connection

“Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself
that you have built against it.” – Rumi

Valentine’s Day is usually about romantic love – roses, chocolates and the idea of “happily ever after”. But there is a deeper love that often gets overlooked: a love that isn’t limited to one person, one relationship or one special day.

In this workshop, we’ll explore – with curiosity and compassion – the inner barriers to love that Rumi talks about: the fears, stories and protective strategies that shape how we show up in our romantic relationships.

As we bring these into awareness, we open up new possibilities for relating with more honesty, kindness and connection.

We’ll also explore the nature of “Real Love” – the deeper, unconditional love that is our shared essential nature. This is the love that:

• Isn’t dependent on whether a relationship is “working” or not
• Isn’t limited to one special person
• Is already here, underneath our conditioning and self-protection

From here, true happiness and a sense of inner freedom become possible and we strengthen our capacity to attract or deepen relationships that champion and support who we are.

In this workshop, you will:

• Reflect on the barriers to love you may have built within yourself
• Explore how old patterns and beliefs play out in romantic relationships
• Be guided into a deeper sense of Real Love – the love that we share with everyone and everything
• Practice meeting yourself and others with more curiosity, compassion and openness
• Leave with fresh insights and simple pointers you can bring into your daily life and relationships

This is for you if:

• You’re in a relationship and want to deepen honesty, intimacy and connection
• You’re single and want to understand your patterns in love
• You sense there is a deeper love than the usual Valentine’s Day story
• You’re curious about love as our true nature, not just a feeling that comes and goes

No prior experience is needed – just a willingness to explore.
