When we have poor boundaries we often attract relationships with partners that take more than give. Before then, I had so wanted love that it never occurred to me that I might actually be covertly working against it. It had been years since I first heard about Katherine Woodward Thomas’ book: “ Calling in the One.” and after many failed attempts to complete the exercises found in this book, I am proud to say that I have finally done the work and am excited to share with you my top 49 lessons. Visualization is both a mental and emotional process that allows our hearts to feel what it might be like to have what we are seeking and when we start living by this vision our behavior will change. This will feel foreign as we usually make choices about how to behave based on our past.

Our ability to recognize what we are feeling, when we are feeling it is the “keystone” to emotional intelligence (Goleman). Your complete and undivided attention is the greatest gift you have to offer to anyone. Listening is love in action! When we blame others for the current situation in our lives, we are failing to take responsibility for our choices. Join bestselling author and the founder of Rapid Dating Renee Piane to discover how much fun it can be to meet potential partners online. In this 60 minute workshop, you will learn:Often people seeking a love partner will turn to practical, “how to” methods such as dating advice or behavioural approaches that make us look more attractive to their date. These approaches have their place, for sure, but may cause us to look only at external reasons for us not having the love we heartily desire. We can miss some very important points and develop mistaken beliefs that e.g. “there are no good men left in the world”, “all the good women are involved elsewhere”, “I’m not physically attractive enough” and often “there must be something wrong with me because no one wants me”.

The importance of differentiating between questions that help gain insight vs. those that we find ourselves asking in hopes of receiving a fixed answer. This is an important reminder to let go of expectations! The new course is also informed by the latest findings in neuroscience about how to create healthy, happy love (even if you’ve been “love addicted” or “love avoidant” for years!) and which will more fully set you up to navigate the relationship you “call in” to new heights of happiness and well-being in love. What you have is a reflection of what you believe you can have and your relationships are a perfect mirror of your relationship with yourself. That we must widen our circle of compassion to include more than just ourselves and to seek compassion in the whole of nature and all its beauty (Einstein).Calling in “The One” is getting a make-over! There is so much we are all learning about what creates positive, lasting change, particularly in relationships, that I felt compelled to evolve the course to include all we’ve been discovering. Magical “flirting with life” techniques to immediately create affinity with the people you meet; and Week 1 focused on preparing yourself for love and creating space both figuratively and literally for “the one” to come into your life. As long as we continue to define ourselves based on our parent’s expectations of us, then our own judgement of others will be affected.
