In a world designed to maximize the superficial and minimize the spiritual, pursuing our real reason for being often means a willingness to suffer for a while as we move towards our true purpose and ultimate goal — love.

‘The great peace of the Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it.’ (ACIM, T-6.II.12:8)

The connection between love and sacrifice, and how to love someone through challenge or change. Plus, a step-by-step guide for knowing when to endure in a relationship, when to press pause, and when to lovingly depart.

In a society not designed for the slowness that love mandates, that much more is demanded of us to get to the root of our challenges. There are no shortcuts in love. Love is the long road.

Our true nature is deeper than belief. As long as we let belief systems stand in the way of our connection with others, we will continue to be divided and stifle our potential to experience the greatest love, both in our personal relationships and in the world.

To have a listening ear, a voice of reason, someone to remind us of our goodness when we are in a hole of darkness, can fortify us to move through the depths of our pains with greater strength and courage.

Reminders to help through the process of grief, heartache, and letting go.

Life doesn’t last forever. Our time here is finite and our decisions hold great weight. Accepting this reality can feel frightening at first, but it’s not intended to be. It’s meant to be a gift — a gift that encourages us to make decisions with more careful thought and consideration, with proper attention, integrity, and love.

As they say, February is the month of love. The fabricated month of love, that is. We all have different feelings about Valentine’s Day. Some of us love it, some of us hate it, and some of us have a love-hate relationship with it. No matter where you stand, may I suggest that you try taking this Valentine’s Day as an opportunity to excessively, superfluously, ridiculously celebrate love and the people you love?

Love is not reserved for romance, familial relations or friendships, nor is it exclusive to settings designated for those who declare themselves religious or spiritual. Love touches everything and is inherent in us all. It is the fundamental driver behind everything we do, whether we realize it or not. We all want love, both at home and at work. It is the core commonality of every human being; the very thread that connects us all.

Congruence is what sets us up to experience more love and connection, and compassion is the mechanism for understanding what it is we need to live more congruent lives. In Congruence Coaching, we use both dialogue and compassion techniques to uncover incongruences in the client’s key three relationships, and to begin alleviating the suffering those incongruences have led to.
