Re-imagine, Re-design and Re-launch Your Relationship! After years of being together sometimes you drift away from the feelings you once had when you were first together. Usually one partner notices it before the other. By the time the other partner realizes what's happening, the partner who noticed is ready to leave the relationship and there is shock and they are left wondering what happened. Often it is too late. In my years of relationship coaching I have found that if one partner … [Read more...]

I Know Something About You…
January 21, 2013 by
You are not finished. You're here and you are not finished. It's not over. You are not done yet. You are alive in this moment. You still have things to do and much more to accomplish. You still have more to say; more people to love. Stay connected to what's most important to you.

Always Tell the Truth, Larry James
January 17, 2013 by
Always Tell the Truth 'My mother used to say that if you always tell the truth, you never have to remember what you said.' Always telling the truth is the most important consideration in any relationship. Couples should talk with each other openly and honestly to learn more about each other to enhance the relationship, instead of concealing the true sides to cheat each other. When you let your partner know you won't punish them for telling the truth they will be less likely to lie in the … [Read more...]
“I Need a Hug”, Celebrate Love
December 28, 2012 by
When in the heat of the battle, always remember: a warm hug cools a slow burn. It may be better to temporarily put aside feelings of anger during misunderstandings and express your love in a silent, close embrace.

Relationships, ‘Well. . . What Did You Expect?’
December 20, 2012 by

In a spirit of unity, only and always work together, all the time, to create the best relationship we … [Read more...]

De-Stress… Don’t Think!
December 8, 2012 by
De-Stress… Don’t Think! How long has it been since you put on a good pair of headphones, dialed up some smooth jazz(any music without words will do) and just listened to the music? Or is music something that just plays in the background? You know it's there because every once in a while your thoughts get tired and they stop working just long enough for you to notice the music - that doesn't last long either - then it's back to doing the laundry, taking the car to get gas, or as … [Read more...]
