Language that Loves

Hi everyone & welcome,

Whether you’re here for the first time or returning to learn more about how we work and see the world, you are all very welcome here.

There’s so much noise and information in the world coming at us fast; I feel partially loathed to add to that, but in adding to it I hope that paradoxically it leads to more stillness and more peace. I believe strongly that looking inward is the best way of truly deciphering what’s best for you. We don’t give answers - we sit with you whilst you find yours. We create the space.

I’m a big fan of the Enneagram so you’ll hear me refer to that often. As a Type 5, I have a resistance to conform and to anyone - including some of my favourite gurus - who state that their way of seeing the world is the right one. Certainty can get us in a lot of trouble my friends. That doesn’t mean I don’t have my own beliefs. I do. But I practice reminding myself that they are just that - my beliefs. I hold them dearly but gently.

One belief that I’m quite attached is the idea that when we communicate and interact, we are connecting. Through my studies and experience, I have come to see human connection as the foundation or the framework in which interactions happen and therefore the glue in relationships. Human connection feels like safety and like Maslow’s hierarchy we must first feel safe before we can look to succeed. Our biology is wired to look for the message I am safe here.

I could swap that word safe for any that work for you - connected, loved, understood, seen, valued, supported, heard…

You will know the word that describes how you want to feel in your relationship. Your children will have theirs. But it all lives under connection.

And here is my final point on this short introduction: in essence, human connection is a form of human love. When we create and share a space where both people get to grow, it’s a beautiful thing. Even when that has been missing for a while, we can move the ‘stuff’ out of the way and get back to love.
