I Love You: A Practice For Couples To Explore Conflict

Join Lisa in a heart-opening meditation practice focused on expressing love to your partner. This practice is inspired by John and Julie Gottman's work.

Start by audibly sharing the simple yet powerful words, "I love you." Feel the resonance of these words as you both express and receive them. Transition into contemplating a minor conflict, noticing its sensations. Approach it from a self-aware standpoint, using "I feel" or "I understand" rather than blame.

Share your experience with your partner, fostering a deeper connection beyond the practice. Express gratitude to your partner, perhaps concluding with another heartfelt "I love you." Welcome home to a space of love and understanding.

Thank you for embracing this practice with Lisa to support healthy relationships. This practice may be supportive, although it is not intended to be a replacement for couples who are seeking therapy or additional support to work with conflict.
