Listening is Love

An Exploration in Conscious Relationship

@Abundant Space

Scottsdale Arizona

Saturday May 18th 1-4pm

“The first duty of love is to listen.”
— Paul Tillich

We’ve all glimpsed it. Maybe even been lucky enough to have experienced waves of it throughout our lives:

A deep, fulfilling experience of love, understanding and connection. Easefully oozing passion, presence, purpose and playfulness. Naturally unfolding in ways that support each of us to be our best selves, enhancing our power, creativity and vitality. We all sense that this is the potential in our intimate relationships. Intimately connected with Self, with Other, with Spirit.

And yet for most of us, our day to day experience of relationship is far from this.

Why? And how to do more than glimpse our potential, how to experience this as not state but stage? In the Listening is Love 3 hour workshop touch upon these most serious questions in a light hearted way.  

We will explore some of the patterns in life and relationship that are common blocks to living this realization. And even more importantly, we will help to discover what’s specifically preventing you from experiencing this fully for yourself.

Expect to receive some tools, tips, tricks and techniques for upgrading your ability to stay open-hearted in the midst of conflict, fear, confusion and pain.

To refine your awareness of the ways that you defend yourself from real and imagined threats. 

To receive clarity on the subtle, subconscious agendas you engage in when out of touch with your own inherent self-manifesting nourishment. The ways you try to get your cup filled externally.

To  deepen your capacity to meet with compassion and discrimination the parts of your partner’s that are subtly, or not so subtly, and trying to get you to fill their cup.

All of this will be achieved through deep listening, learning to be truly curious about our own truth and that our our partner. As we listen to ourselves we first meet the layers of protection: the voices that seek to protect us. As we continue listening, we may meet the wounded places within that are crying out for holding, for love, for seeing. And as we keep listening the deep wisdom within emerges.

This same depth of listening can help us to experience clarity about our partners, and receive their wisdom, even when they’re not able to. Reminding us of their divinity, their sublime beauty, and allowing us to let go of our stories of who they are, or who we need them to be.

Whether you are currently in single, or involved in an intimate relationship of any structure, join us to learn the tools and techniques on offer, which can work through the layers of wounding, all the way down to the *core* where we discover Essence – the True Healer. What’s more, by understanding our own needs for healing, we learn how to support our partner in their healing journey as well.

Expect this workshop to be uncomfortable at times, challenging and deepening your understanding of consciousness, your Self and your relationships. This will be accomplished through Self-exploratory exercises and meditations, working with our own and our partner's deep conditioning held in the subconscious mind & body. There will be a mix of lecture and exercise, seriousness and levity, expansion and contraction, laughter and perhaps tears, all leading to transformation.

This workshop will be largely experiential, and will include Group, Partner and Solo exercises. Join us if you are interested in:

  • The Subconscious agenda
  • Uncovering your Personal Relationship Patterns
  • How our Sub-personalities Interact with our Partners'
  • Core Wounding
  • How to Fill your Own Cup
  • Building the Capacity to Hold Emotional Energy

“Listening is an attitude of the heart, a genuine desire to be with another which both attracts and heals.”
— L. J. Isham
“Listening to and understanding our inner sufferings will resolve most of the problems we encounter.”
— Thich Nhat Hanh

Facilitated by Amitayus, Transpersonal Psychotherapist and Tantra Yoga Teacher. You can read more about him here.

Below are the experiences of people who have worked with him in the past.

 

"Infinite gratitude for making such a beautiful event. The synergistic effect of your presence, the environment, the group of people, the topics, and the group-bonding activities worked wonders at creating a temporary haven where people were able to feel comfortable, connect with others, share with authenticity, and to ultimately feel less lonely in this increasingly individualistic ego-centered world. The happy tears seen a few times throughout the weekend gave testament to the powerful and positive feelings that many people were experiencing." ~ Paul in Seoul

“I want to share with you once again, that I am still applying the teachings from the relationship workshop. I am also sharing some of these insights with friends and it REALLY helps their relationships. I could not have done this without you. I am infinitely grateful to the teachings and to your guidance. Utterly life changing!!” ~ Daan in Thailand

“As an individual who hosts transformational workshop based festivals and who has personally attended 100's of transformation workshops, retreats and events. I can confidently promote Amitayus as being one of my favourite teachers and most competent and engaging workshop facilitators.

Amitayus has a honed ability to create safe, powerful and transformative containers. He is masterful at curating potent and engaging exercises to help you have an experiential and embodied experience of your own truth. He is highly skilled at  translating and communicating complex spiritual and psychological concepts so they are understood, remembered and easily applied. 

If you have the opportunity to experience his work, I strongly recommend you do.  My life and the richness of my life experience has undoubtedly been enhanced through my connection with Amitayus and for that I have immense gratitude." -Lauren, from Melbourne, Founder of Seven Sisters Festival
