Relationship Coaching Through the Deida Work

Our history and how we relate in intimacy.

Everything we learn about intimacy for most of us is haphazard.

It begins with observing our parents from the time we are born until we are out of the house. For many of us, this was not a pretty picture. Simply being exposed to the behavior of our parents created an imprint in our sub-conscious for which we have had no choice in the matter.

These memories are the most familiar to us. When we begin an intimate relationship, we often believe that we have finally found someone with whom we can create more love and beauty in our life. But all too often, after some time, we find ourselves wondering how we replicated a relationship that wound up being similar to that of mom and dad.

Add to this the influence of religion, school, government, the media, it’s easy to see why there is so much struggle in intimate relationships, high divorce rates and secret/not-so-secret affairs.

Through the study and practice of the work of David Deida, the seemingly endless cycle of disappointment and fighting can come to an end.

Start turning things around now – consciously choose to re-imprint your system.

Here is one way to begin: Breathe. Breathe fully.

The energy that you draw into your body is your breath – our most basic sustenance. Inhale FULLY with your belly extended. Focus. Hold your hands to your belly. You’re your belly expanding as you breathe. Watch the way children breathe, they breathe full into their belly. In this moment, are you breathing shallowly or are you breathing full? It is through your breath that you have the ability to connect to the world, to others and to the present moment. Conscious breathing is the foundation for growing your capacity for intimacy.
