How to organize your conversation space for your best-ever relationship communication. Watch your relationship problems melt away when you speak your truth. With your partner, create ambiance; light some candles if you wish. Or keep it simple; it is up to you. But make it so appealing you will want to return to it often. In this private area of your home you will make time for your relationship to grow and flourish. You will share your most intimate feelings; your relationship problems; and your greatest joys and appreciation for each other. The purpose of these frequent, brief 15-minute conversations is to enliven your relationship communication and deepen your intimacy. The best tip for how to organize your space is to keep it simple.
Create your little corner of heaven behind closed doors, if possible, where you will be undisturbed by others - even in your locked bathroom if you must.
This tip on how to organize your conversation space involves children, of all ages. Small children deserve your attention when requested, so it is a good idea to book your time together when you know they will be sleeping or at least taking a time out (15 minutes is not a long time to be off duty). Older kids are just as deserving of your attention, but you can request their cooperation to allow you these special conversations, in private. You are only asking for 15 minutes per day of undisturbed quality time. You deserve this time to nurture yourselves and your relationship, plus the good example you set impacts how they will respect themselves in their relationships.
Set up two chairs close enough for you to face each other without touching, and look into each others eyes. Or if you are comfortable on big cushions on the floor and it enhances the ambiance then take the time to organize that.
An important tip on how to organize your space includes a word about music. Prior to your conversation you will meditate together to relax and quiet your busy minds. So I recommend no music, but it is up to you to decide. Music can be distracting. If an uncomfortable emotion is aroused, it may be too easy to allow your attention to escape to the sound of music. Your partner will know you aren't listening attentively if you tap your toes in time to the music.
Guided meditation CD's are not recommended here. The best meditation for the purpose of this course is one that draws your alert conscious awareness inward to the vast stillness within you in the present moment. It is from that silence within that you will function during the conversations. If you do not have a suitable meditation technique, then please use the stop-your-mind-chatter exercise provided on this website. Share the responsibility of deciding where to locate your space and setting it up. Perhaps you could take turns, or do it together to deepen your bonding experience. Remember to keep the location simple and in your home. There is no need to go overboard to be creative and decide to hold your conversations in a beautiful setting like a park, or by a beach. It is much too easy to postpone a meeting, if it is not well timed in a very easy to get to location.
Relationship Support Line For now, this mini on-line course is FREE, plus it includes one-hour of relationship support to guide you easily around your ego's resistance. If, after engaging in a few of the speak-to-be-heard conversations, you have negative self-limiting thoughts like, This isn't working, my partner is still not listening to me, or, It is not possible to stop my negative thoughts, or any thoughts trying to convince you to give up on the course, please put your pride aside and reach out for help. It is just your ego defending its life - the more effective your efforts are the more persistent it gets. The ego's greatest threat is YOUR HEALING. You can master your ego with strong enough desire and intentions. Because my own experience of healing was enhanced by meditation, it may also help you. Bonus! The fee for my meditation course, via Skype, includes emotional and spiritual support, including assistance during this course, for as long as you practice the meditation techniques as they are taught.
