Mindful Connection 6-week course

March 3, 2020 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

$330 – $390

Resolve conflict. Deepen your relationships.

*******  COURSE SOLD OUT *******

 

Do you find yourself playing out familiar patterns in your relationships (with your partner, family members, friends or colleagues)? Do you get overwhelmed by strong emotions? Find yourself constantly arguing? Or perhaps you are just feeling more and more disconnected?

Or maybe you just want to have more depth in your relationships? Like, things are going ok, but you sense that so much more intimacy and connection might be possible?

We used to experience all of these things. It is totally normal – and more common than you might think! But then we discovered some powerful tools and processes that helped us have greater harmony and depth in all of our relationships. We found simple but powerful ways to manage strong emotions, notice when we were triggered, get to the depth of what was really going on, and communicate in ways that actually got our needs met.

Let us share these tools with you!

Facilitated by Dr Richard Chambers, a clinical psychologist and leading expert in mindfulness, and Elisa Caro, an internationally-recognised expert in tantra and conscious relationships, MINDFUL CONNECTION will help you have a better relationship with yourself and everyone around you.

 

What you will get

 

You will walk away with:

  • Greater self-awareness.
  • A deeper understanding of psychological processes and relationship dynamics, including how conflict is caused and how to overcome it.
  • Effective, practical tools for conflict resolution that you will feel confident applying.
  • A simple but powerful 5-step process you can apply anytime you are triggered that will increase harmony and connection. This is a process we developed in our own relationship and coaching/therapy, which we apply as much as we can.
  • Workbook and downloadable MP3 meditations

 

Our MINDFUL CONNECTION course draws upon the latest research and neuroscience, and blends mindfulness, tantra and evidence-based psychological tools and techniques. It includes a dynamic mix of practical exercises, role-plays, meditations and embodiment exercises to give you the confidence to apply these strategies in your everyday life.

 

You will learn how to bring mindfulness to all of your relationships so you can:

  • Let go of habitual behaviours and reactions that are creating conflict and disconnection
  • Communicate with others in ways that create harmony and get you what you need
  • Use conflict and emotional reactions to expand your self-awareness (rather than getting trapped in them)

 

Practising these tools over 6 weeks will help you fully integrate them and create powerful, sustainable shifts in your relationships.

About us

Elisa is an internationally-recognised tantra teacher and mindful sexuality and intimacy coach. Although she didn’t realise it at the time, her parents taught her self-awareness and self-love practices throughout her life, and she has come to embody these in everything that she does. After a brief interlude as a civil engineer, she began teaching tantra and mindful relating around the world and has helped countless people have better relationships with themselves and others.

Richard is a clinical psychologist and leading expert in mindfulness. He is the author of 3 books and countless journal and popular media articles, is a developer of the Smiling Mind app, and is leading an initiative to embed mindfulness in the curriculum for students at Monash University. Over the past 20 years, Richard has practised mindfulness meditation and done extensive training in tantra and psychological techniques, using these to improve his relationships with others, and teaching what works to his clients.

 

Together, we apply what we learn and teach in our own relationship, constantly revising and growing together. We still definitely get stuck sometimes, but we always use this as an opportunity to look more deeply into ourselves and how we relate to others. Somehow we have bridged the divide between the worlds of tantra and clinical psychology – no easy task, to be honest – and now have a shared understanding of what brings us greater intimacy and harmony, and what gets in the way of that. We are passionate about teaching others what we have discovered so they can have more fulfilling relationships.
