Visit our Facebook Page.  Become our Fan! Your Relationship is a Garden . . . Like a garden, it needs tending over time for it to thrive.  Tending of our relationship garden includes the prioritizing of the relationship as vitally important and nurturing it in an on-going way.  It requires finding ways to keep our feelings for one another fresh. It requires our daily attention to creating loving appreciation between us.  In lifelong loving partnership we find ways to feel a sense of adventure and novelty in the midst of the our daily lives.  In this retreat we have created a very quality weekend that holds connection, presence and romance with sacredness. It helps couples really talk to one another, giving needed time to the nurturing of their beautiful garden.  We teach you how to tend your garden with simple but powerful practices to take home and continue the connection. AND we have a really good time!   Here we have a few words from a recent participant.  "I just want to take a few moments to express my apprecation to both of you for holding the Pathways to Radiant Loving Workshop. My husband and  I really moved to a much more unified space during the weekend and that has to an amazing extent, remained in place. I found the workshop to be a great blend of relaxation, couple time and group work.  The most profound aspect of it is that I got to own all my projections and was then freed up to really love more- both my husband and myself, actually.  So, thanks for your presence and your intent and for creating this. Much love and gratitude to you both".
