Lazy Daze
Summer is here and we still have July and August to look forward to. Mmmmmmm Not being a heat and humid lady, I have to start thinking ahead about how to stay cool. Like: lots of time in air conditioning, lots of showers, meditating in my lovely back yard that is wonderfully shaded by an huge and ancient oak tree, drinking lots of iced tea and lemon water and the occasional beer.
Not so bad. I can handle that. My theme continues to be about ageing. The joys and pleasures, and the hard parts. I don't want to accept that it is inevitable that I am slowing down as I get older. The truth is, I have always been slow enough by far. Slower means a whole lot more reading, and I actually find I get tired of reading. I want to create a soft, gentle, easy flow throughout the day. No rushes, but steady doing. Time out to sit and think or dream, and then gently back into life.
The one thing I love doing above all else is working with couples. Couples who are in distress, who are ending their relationship if help doesn't arrive quickly, and couples who are new to each other and want to do it right/consciously, this time. Even when the pain is obvious and the hope is faltering, the work is gentle. We all want to be held, seen, comforted, understood and most of all, safe. Gently, with those who are patient enough to let me, I can help guide couples into safe territory, and couples who are looking to not go into pain in the first place, I can help guide in ways that facilitate creating a safe, supportive foundation at times of distress.
That is what keeps me feeling young. And alive. And what keeps me wanting to be alive. I am working on learning how to use MegaMeeting.com so I can work with couples who live or are located outside of Toronto and even outside of the country. I just learned how to do email/interac. So I think I am stretching into the 21st century at last.
Mega/Meeting will provide more opportunity for the couple and me, the the entire family if that is the work, to be more connected as we share and learn together. We can all be in a different country and still see each other. And I can use my study boards to provide a visual aid in teaching about the meaning of being in a primary relationship. I need to practice. So if someone is reading this who would like 2 couple's session at no charge by using MegaMeeting.com with me, just phone or email me. I would deeply appreciate your help.
And you would be helping me stay young!
What are you doing to help yourself stay young and your relationship stay alive and gently flowing? Be intentional. Don't wait for the universe to provide. Make conscious decisions to say and do things that help your partner feel safe with you. When you do that, they will feel safe enough to give back to you. And there you go-----room for laughter, pleasure, fun, and energy to make love.
A for sure recipe for a blessed way to spend your days and nights while on this plane of existence. Might just as well take advantage of being in the physical. The non physical probably isn't as demanding and maybe not so painful, but I doubt it is as much fun either.
Enough for now. I had a picture in my mind when I wrote the title for this: sitting on our brand new yard lounger with a book and a beer, thinking, dreaming, humming a little tune, and watching the birds in the bird bath.
Enjoy life. It is darn good and very precious. Warmly, Nancy Ross
