Couples Alive II: Edge with Susan Clarke and CrisMarie Campbell

When we first meet someone, and increasingly as the stakes go up, we do our best to be seen in a positive light. It is in these exciting – and often uneasy – times that we begin to establish the range of who and how we are in our relationship.

If we suppress ourselves to make our relationship work, we are likely to experience resentment, distance, distrust and anxiety. Alternatively, each person's fully acknowledged and expressed presence can become the foundation of a solid, loving relationship. Through this process we begin to build faith in ourselves and each other to relate at an edge of aliveness and discovery.

Passionate expression and healthy power-struggle can help establish growth and acceptance – as individuals and as a couple. In this program couples work to identify and share personal characteristics, beliefs and behaviours, go beyond 'good-bad' judgments, and explore how these traits can be embraced to enhance relationship.

This program is for couples that want to:

• Experience more energy, pleasure and edge
• Develop a healthy approach to power struggles
• Learn ways to create personal safety
• Build solid ground for relating through risk, compassion and curiosity
• Broaden their range of intimacy
• Create an open and accepting environment for each person
