Do you ever wonder why you are still alone? Can you imagine how you will feel and what your life will be like when 'the right one' is in your life? If you are currently in a relationship, would you like it to be deeper and more intimate than it is now?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, know that you are on the right path to calling in the love of your life or deepening the love you already have.
"Our unhealed wounds are invisible prisons--capturing us with our iron bars just as surely as if we were locked inside cold, gray, concrete walls. Sometimes it seems, no matter how hard we try to escape, that we will forever be prisoners of our own sad stories, doomed to repeat painful dynamics over and over again, in spite of our wishes to the contrary." Katherine Woodward Thomas, Calling in the One
Many people carry the pain of the past with them as they navigate personal and professional relationships in their life, each relationship often being tainted by unconsciously projecting their past relationships with parents, siblings, other relatives, or others who they feel wounded by onto the current relationship. Many clients I have worked with over the years have also experienced earlier sexual abuse and carry the scars of that abuse with them. Until I started working with these often endearing but wounded individuals, they found it virtually impossible to achieve the level of intimacy they deeply desire because of their terror around allowing themselves to trust and be vulnerable again...
If you are between relationships, trust divine timing and know that this might be a great opportunity to clear the blocks preventing you from attracting and keeping the love you want and truly deserve.
If you are currently in a relationship and would like to achieve a deeper level of intimacy and love with your partner, here are a few reminders that might be helpful to you:
Communication - Intention: Set the intention to 'hold space' for each other in a way that feels respectful and honoring. Creating a safe container to listen to each other encourages deeper, more honest and vulnerable communication. You know how good it feels for the other person to really listen and care about your thoughts and feelings...do the same for him or her and it will be greatly appreciated, building trust and mutual caring.
Trust - Every time your work through a challenging situation that comes up between you and a partner, you build trust. This is based on knowing that you are both willing to be there for each other and stick it out in the difficult times as well as the good times. You can relax and be yourself, especially when you are having a 'bad' day. It's nice to know that your partner accepts all the different sides of you, your weaknesses as well as your strengths and cherishes the whole package you bring to the relationship.
Intimacy - A gentle touch, a brush of your partner's cheek as you walk by, a spontaneous hug in the moment, a card, flowers... Demonstrating affection has become even more vital now because of the increasing business in our daily lives. It's a nice, easy to do reminder that you are loved and appreciated by the person who is closest to you. It also feels just as good to the person expressing love/caring in the moment because acts of affection, intimacy, good deeds... all release endorphins in the brain, which are the 'feel good' hormones, similar to the runners high... we know about, or being in 'the zone' and we feel really wonderful.
One of the reasons I have loved working out since I was 14 is the wonderful feeling of euphoria I experience when I am in 'the zone' as a result of exercising my body and releasing those endorphins...happens every time.
Our brain is very important for many reasons. However, our heart, is the center of love and has the capacity to emit well over 100 times the amount of energy the brain emits. I consider our hearts to be "grand central station" as it is truly the center of our own personal universe. I do a lot of work facilitating the healing of clients hearts who have been wounded over the course of their life. I consider this to be the most sacred aspect of the energy healing work I do and it is truly an honor to be able to heal the pain that has caused a client's heart to shut down over time and get it to flow and open to love again.
I truly hope that you have found the writing in this newsletter to be heartfelt and meaningful as this is my intention. If there is any way that I can support you or help heal the wounds of the past that may be getting in your way now, I hope that you will reach out and let me know how I can help. I work energetically with clients all over the country by phone and skype. With much love and many blessings to you,
Ellie Pechet, M.Ed.
