New Follow-up Event for Imago Workshop Grads
with Barbara Reichlin

Like many couples, you may have experienced a glow reminiscent of your early days together after your Imago Weekend. However, just as a garden needs regular maintenance and nourishing to flourish, that glow will not persist without on-going care of your relationship. Whether it's been weeks, months or years since your Imago (Getting the Love You Want) Weekend, it's never too soon, nor too late, for a relationship boost!

Imago Booster Series!

Stay, or get back on track with Imago via four 3-hour sessions designed to help you continue or re-instate the tools, concepts and experiences that brought you so close in your weekend workshop.

Melt the Power Struggle
with Laughter & Fun
 

Booster #1

 

Kick-off Session Starts on a Positive Note!

After taking time to connect & catch up, our first session will offer you and your partner an opportunity to do 3 things: 1) take care of some unfinished business: completing (or updating!), your Conscious Relationship Vision, 2) practice a little Dialogue, and 3) boost your relationship with positive energy via fun exercies designed to generate laughter & connection.

Note: there will be homework given for each session.

Booster # 2

Communicate, Communicate, Communicate!

We wish we had better communication, but complain that demands of careers and family prevent it. Occasionally, though, we have to admit that these are sometimes more excuses than real barriers: convenient ways to hide our fears of what would happen if we really took the time to sit and talk.

Imago Dialogue helps us create the safety needed to lower the barriers preventing deeper connection. After viewing video footage of a couple in Dialogue, you will spin off for a leisurely, two-way conversation with your partner. Using a structured Dialogue guide, you will be coached to safely continue your personal journey towad a more intimate partnership.

 
   
 


Put away those claws & shells!
  Booster #3

Resolving Those Frustrations - Old & New

First, we will review the Behavior Change Request Process, and discuss your experiences with it. You will get a chance to re-address an old BCR, (perhavps via a BCR Dialogue variation not taught in the workshop: the "Difficult BCR Dialogue*.} Then, using Dialogue again, you will work together to resolve a current frustration.

As always, we will end on a fun, positive note!

 
   
 

Keeping the fires of
passion alive.
  Booster #4

Romance, Romance, Romance

Re-Romanticizing has always been an integral part of Imago. Today, thanks to brain research, we know more than ever about keeping passion alive in a committed love relationship. In this session, along with re-visiting Caring Behaviors and the Flooding, Barbara will share the latest information about sustaining sexual and romantic aliveness in a long term marriage or relationship.
