A beautiful article highlighting the importance of integrating the physical with the mental and emotional in the healing of trauma.

Trauma inhabits every part of our being, but healing from it is not individual work, it's communal and relational. We are in this together.

“When our senses become muffled, we no longer feel fully alive… If you have a comfortable connection with your inner sensations … you will feel in charge of your body, your feelin…

Esther Perel is offering a free video series on desire and how to rekindle it in relationships, check it out:

NEW VIDEO SERIES: Desire: Essential Ingredients to Passionate Relationships

Today, our entire s*xuality is organized and powered by desire. For the first time in human history, we want to experience passion for the long haul, with a partner (or partners) just because we feel like it. Not because we want to have eight babies and not ,at least
in the West, because it’s a woman’s marital duty. We want s*x at home for connection and pleasure. And we want that desire to last.

Although the couples I work with are diverse in infinite ways, two basic questions invariably come up across cultures — even among couples who describe themselves as loving, trusting and caring:

“How can we keep passion alive? And what do we do once desire is gone?”

As in many areas of life, we need to start moving away from thinking of relationships in dichotomous terms. There are options that exist outside of the binary of "married" or "divorced". You can create a relationship that works for you, one that honours the parts that are most important and meaningful to you and the values that you hold dear.

Continuing with the theme of my post from last week, for couples who are on the brink of separation or divorce, the parenting marriage is one such alternative to consider.

With divorce’s impact on children in mind, more and more couples are transforming their relationship into a ‘parenting marriage’ when romance has died

As a couples therapist my work involves helping people find a path towards a happier and healthier future. For some, this work is based around saving their relationships and marriages whereas for others it means working towards a separation. It is not for me to decide what is best for you. The right path is for you to determine and for me to help you actualize in any way that I can.

However, there are a lot of fears and misconceptions around both paths and it does help to explore some different perspectives. This is one such perspective, and it touches on one of the greatest fears parents have about the impact of their divorce.

I can't tell you too much about my parents' divorce, because I don't really remember much about them being married. Though legal documents have my parents splitting up shortly after my seventh birthday in 1989, I couldn't tell you about anything about their time as a couple, except that they once

An interesting read on the meaning and purpose of seeking therapy:

"For me, therapy is not about “getting better,” but rather tackling
what I experience every day"
