Everybody wants loyalty, consistency and someone who won’t quit, but everybody forgets that to get that person, you have to be that person.
Whether you are in a relationship or single, whether you want to create an extraordinary relationship with your partner or attract the ideal partner, someone who loves, cherishes and charges you up, YOU must start with yourself. No matter what is your marital status, your eventual relationship becomes a reality when you can really love yourself first before truly loving others be it your partner, friends or family.
If you want to feel more in acceptance with who YOU are and be able to enjoy your own company, I invite you to join our self-love workshop on February 17th from 5.30 to 8.30 at AK yoga studio in Jounieh.

Many people reach a “ceiling” in their relationship, and they find themselves wishing to improve things, to have better communication, have more passion, more understanding and more sense of purpose… A couple can be successful parents and enjoy creative work, financial abundance, emotional strength and yet suffer the frustration of a marriage that is less than what it could be. Great relationships don’t come naturally, they need to be created, pursued and protected. Love is something you consciously create in every waking moment in your life.
So what if you could ignite more love, passion and joy in your relationship starting today? Here are 6 tips to create the energy you need for your relationship to be revitalized:
- Step up into the giving mode: be mindful of the needs of your partner, offer kindness and appreciation, give without expectations, and adopt an attitude of gratitude towards your partner.
- Make a list of the activities that you can share together that boost your energy and bring you closer and schedule them for at least once a week.
- Reflect on the story of us: How do you describe your relationship to others, does your story celebrate the positive traits of your relationship or does it focus on the things that are going wrong?
- Take responsibility for your own happiness and your emotional well-being. Make sure that you have personal time to rejuvenate yourself, connect with your friends and your hobbies, so you can create aliveness when you are with your partner.
- Have a common future vision and plan together for the future. As you work towards a common goal you reinforce shared values and add more meaning to everyday life.
- Reach out and touch more often, studies show that hugging your beloved or even just holding hands lowers your blood pressure and heart rate and increases oxytocin (stress reduction hormone)
Relationships are the heart of happiness. “Rich and satisfying relationships” are the only external factors that will move your happiness score from “quite happy” to “very happy.” Make sure you surround yourself and your couple with happy and supportive friendships. Give your best time, energy and attention to your most important relationships and remind yourself daily that happiness is in the connections you make, in the friendships you keep and in the love that exists and you nurture in your couple.
