I'm very grateful for all your feedback and questions about our nature AS love, and my
Five Agreements for The New Relationship that I wrote about a few days ago. It is wonderful to hear how this information has been transforming lives and relationships of all kinds. Some recent feedback:
"That is the clearest I have ever had relationships explained. . . Your description is wonderfully clear and concise. Thank you so much for this and for your other works."
"I have tested the waters with a few romantic relationships and put your 5 agreements to work. And it was brilliant!"
"Allan, it is really works, thanks to your New Relationship CD's... I ordered 3 more sets, 2 for my kids. "
"Much-needed new perspective so beautifully articulated in these 5 agreements. I hope they will receive a very wide audience."
"Allan's set of 5 CD's- "The New Relationship" is uplifting and candidly helpful. I'm learning about my new relationship with myself- which reverberates out into my life like the waves of a pebble thrown into still water. Order this CD set for useful feel happy again instruction. Thank you Allan for sharing your insight."
I was at the beach here in Chacala recently for dinner with a couple that had arrived for an intensive this week. We watched the sunset turn into silvery moonlight on the waves as we ate chipotle shrimp, with lots of freshly made tortillas, guacamole, and salsa. When we turned to leave, I said hello to a couple sitting near us and began the usual "Where are you from?" conversation. I handed the woman my card in the middle of the short conversation and she exclaimed: "Oh, you're the Five Agreements guy!"
She was a therapist who commutes to work in Santa Rosa, CA, where I live and some clients had told her about my
New Relationship/Five Agreements work. Right here in Chacala. The word is getting out.
You can read a summary of
The New Relationship ~ Five Agreements to Make Love Come True right here.
You can order CD's of the agreements here.
The book is in progress.We are going to use this New Relationship material as the basis for my annual
Valentine's Week Workshop on Love, Romance, and Relationship, February 10~14, 2011 (for couples
and singles) here at my "House of the Eagles" in Chacala. Chacala is the perfect romantic setting for this five-day exploration into conscious relationship, and I hope
you'll make plans to be here. You deserve an uplifting and life transforming vacation, don't you think?

~~~ ·········· ~~~ The Joydancer Weekly Word
"Love is Your Nature,
Some Questions Answered"
I was delighted to receive questions about my Weekly Word on our nature being love, which isn't a commodity we need to bargain for. If you missed that issue, you can read all the archived "Words" here.
I believe we came into this world through Love, as Love, being Love. We were the manifestation of Life itself. You came here knowing no fear, no judgment, no conditions, and had no expectations. You simply
WERE. In order to gain the acceptance of parents, teachers, playmates, and religious leaders, we learned to deny our truth and accept theirs. The first truth we had to deny was the truth that we were and ARE Love.
As we move into adult "love" relationships, if we carry with us the agreement that love is a commodity outside of us we have to bargain for, we will always live in fear of failing and losing the love we have captured. This is not fun (you may have noticed).
It is my hope, inspiration, and intent,
to always know my nature as love and life itself,
and share that love in all my relationships.
I do not bargain for love,
and I do not require others to bargain for my love.
What about you?
Allan
I adapted the above thoughts from my Five Agreements to Make Love Come True-- there is a lot more there to read. Changing these agreements will be a major focus of our week together in Chacala during my Valentine's Week Relationship Retreat. Please join me, and change your life! See the box below.
