"It is not necessary to change or manipulate experience in any way in order to notice the background of simply being aware. We may be afraid, bored, agitated, depressed, in love or at peace; the experience of being aware remains the same in all cases."

IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO RAISE A RELATIONSHIP by Helen Williams There is a wonderful quote from Esther Perel, a Belgian psychotherapist and author which is particularly pertinent to those of us living as expats. Esther Perel said “Today we turn to one person to provide what an entire village once did: a sense of grounding, meaning, and continuity. At the same time we expect our committed relationships to be romantic as well as emotionally and sexually fulfilling. Is it any wonder that so many relationships crumble under the weight of it all?’” In many ways, this quote sums up a lot of the couples work that I encounter – this turning to one person for all of our wants, our needs, our wishes, our hopes, our dreams and our life. This notion that one person could, can and ought to supply all our emotional needs is what so often leads to ‘good’ relationships crumbling. I often have the sense that many couples would flourish more smoothly if they were planted in or near their familiar roots – that is, surrounded by their extended families, friendship groups, and other familiar people who have known them over time. This, of course, would bring accountability for connectedness, for personal boundaries and our own expectations for predictable behaviours. It is when we lose this familiar base of personal accountability that the test of our own unpredictable behaviour arrives. If nobody knows us, then we have no one watching to help us keep a check on our reactions and behaviours. For many young expats, this journey of self-accountability can just be passed on to our new partner and by believing that they are responsible for all our wants, hopes and needs we can then blame them for our relationship failure. It takes a village to raise a relationship too! I believe it’s really important to feed, nourish and nurture varieties of relationships, not just our couple relationship. There is great strength in diversity and different age groups and in the recognition of others watching our world with us. . #mindfulness #consciousrelationships #mindfuldubai #dubai #mindfulnessdubai #relationship #blog #inspiring #insights #marriage #ittakesavillage #community #mindful

NEW BLOG -The Tapestry of Life by Kristine Enger When we are crossing a muddy patch or a stream, we don’t always know where to put our foot next. Where we thought it was safe to cross sometimes isn’t, the stepping stone is wobbly and inevitably we end up with one very muddy, or wet, shoe. Sometimes it’s difficult to see where we are going in our lives. It can feel as if we are walking blindly into a future not yet formed, with no apparent plan or purpose, as we cautiously search for where to put our foot next. This can feel disorienting and confusing. As we have a desire to live more mindfully, being present to the what is happening now and not wishing it was different, it can be a conundrum as we don’t always understand what the present moment requires us to do. Or we feel stuck in our present circumstances, in some version of an eternal ‘groundhog day’ now. Can we accept that the present moment is sometimes crystal clear and other times utterly muddy and confusing? Only when we observe the tapestry of our life from a higher perspective, can we see the different colours, the intricately woven patterns, and how each thread was vital to the overall quality of the weave. Why certain things happened the way they did. Events that only years later make sense, as we get glimpses of the interconnectedness of it all, the bigger picture. As we are busy living in the rich, mundane, bewildering now, wouldn’t knowing the bigger picture take away the learning underway, the interesting people we’ll meet, the sense of achievement experienced from the other side of a particularly treacherous crossing, the exquisite vistas opening after a steep climb, or the deep, soul love of another human being? If this is so, that the final design is unknown, can’t we then just ‘go all in’ with abandon, trust and accept that we indeed can never put a foot wrong? **** If you would like to book an individual session or private mindfulness workshop with Kristine get in touch with Alfie on +971 54 466 8400 or email info@mindfulme.me. Kristine also hosts a support group for mindfulness practitioners on Tuesday mornings from 10am - 12pm - you are welcome! #mindfulness #mindful #life #dubai
