Romantic Relationships

In my practice, I often see couples coming for consultation or give training sessions to one of them. However something that I observe all the time is that each person has a list of complaints about their’ partner; declaring that if their liaison is not working out, it is the other person’s fault. They are so busy scrutinising the other that they let the thing that is the most essential completely pass them by. I am referring to the reactions we get from our actions, which never fail to manifest that however inappropriate someone’s behaviour; they still care. When affection is absent there will be total indifference. And when we can distinguish this very important factor we know that hope exists, hence can find a way to re-establish that loving feeling.

In Caycedian Sophrology, we discover that our every responsibility lies in our movements, but also in our none movements. Therefore the accountability will never belong to one sole person in the outcome of our every interaction. We learn to always take into account our own participation, which necessarily will influence the other person/s concerned.

This is why, even if I work with only one person, it enables them to approach their companions differently, which makes way and guarantees a new response. Because as humans we are all constantly touched, modified and even transformed by every presence, including our own.
