Heart Practices for Couples: A Pre-Valentine Gift for Relationship

Description:
This pre-Valentine’s Day program is an opportunity for couples to awaken the heart of joy and love together. To be intimate, we must learn to be fully present. Through partner meditations, verbal and nonverbal communication exercises, and group sharing, couples will practice the art of intimacy and learn skills to deepen their shared journey.

Because this day is mainly partner exercises, please only attend with your partner. No singles attendance. Pricing is PER PERSON.

Online Only: We are offering this program online via Zoom for you to join us remotely.

Sliding Scale: PER PERSON (Each person in the couple must register). Our sliding scale options for this program include financial support for our teachers.
