Healing from Heartbreak

Enjoy our latest vlog!   In this vlog, we dive deep into how to recover from a difficult breakup. While most of our clients choose to stay together, we recognize that sometimes ending a relationship is for the highest good. We discuss how people often suffer from misunderstandings about themselves that have them feel unloved and unlovable. We emphasize the importance of feeling the grief that comes with a breakup but caution against getting stuck in the narrative of the relationship ending. Instead, we encourage you to be present with your feelings and the discomfort that arises. Doing so allows you to bring love...

Navigating Difficult Conversations in Relationships

Enjoy our latest vlog!   Welcome to our vlog! We're excited to try a new filming format that we are going to use for the second season of our podcast.   Today, we'll explore difficult conversations in relationships and provide valuable insights to make them easier.   In the early stages of our relationship, we realized that discussions about money triggered emotional responses within us that had nothing to do with money. A lighthearted incident with Angus' accountant comparing Angus' financial knowledge to the accountant's cat, where the cat came out ahead, provided some foreshadowing for this being a difficult topic. And Rohini's encounter with a...

Judgements Help Reveal Our Blind Spots

Enjoy our latest vlog!   If we can remain open to our experience, we can learn a great deal about our blind spots and how to heal. In this month's vlog, Rohini shares an example of when she felt disrespected, undervalued, and overburdened by Angus. However, upon reflection, she realized her upset was not caused by Angus's request. Her lack of neutrality reflected her own judgments and how she relates to herself. This was a blind spot for her. By taking a moment to experience her feelings rather than react from them, Rohini held space for herself emotionally and was then able...

The Importance of Being Able to Say “No” in Your Relationship

Enjoy our latest vlog!   In today's vlog, we discuss the importance of being able to say "No" when it comes to relationships. Setting boundaries with our partner can sometimes be challenging, but it is an essential part of any healthy relationship. When we succumb to our people-pleasing habits or do something we don't want to do to avoid conflict we are not making the self-honoring decision. Not honoring our intuition when it’s saying no will very likely lead to resentment.   Asserting boundaries that are coming forward from our inner wisdom will in all likelihood reduce conflict and increase goodwill. If Wisdom is...

Rewilding Love with Rohini Ross

Enjoy Rohini's webinar, Rewilding Love, for Sanctuary of Earth.   Just like nature can be rewilded, we, too, can be rewilded back to our natural state of love. Love is who we are at our core. What gets in the way of us experiencing that is the conditioned thinking that we learn because we think it will protect us and help us avoid suffering. Unfortunately, however, it does not help us thrive. Rohini will share how we can overcome our conditioning to be rewilded out of our normal state and back to our natural state of love.   Originally published on https://www.therewilders.org/.   Angus & Rohini...

The Easy Recipe for Addressing Relationship Challenges

Spiritual teachings suggest that we are all beautiful, unique expressions of one source of life force. Each of us is an emanation of that divine light. That essence cannot be understood but is felt and recognized by qualities such as love, joy, peace, and well-being. This essence is not unique to us, but we all have a unique experience of that essence.   We each live in our separate reality. Each of us living in unique experiences can be challenging for intimate relationships, but recognizing that we are expressions of the same being makes compassion easier to find.   Botanist and citizen of the...

Is Remembering Mortality Helpful in Relationships?

In a recent Rewilders' Community webinar, we were asked to speak on death. We had a poignant conversation with many sharing their experiences related to death, grief, near-death experiences, and the lessons learned. It made me think of the Latin phrase Memento Mori, which means to "remember that you must die." This phrase is not meant to be depressing but intended to illuminate and inspire one to live life fully in this moment. Memento Mori might seem like a depressing theme to use as inspiration for a relationship post, but I find it refreshing and practical.   Recently when Angus and I returned...

Code Red in Relationships

Empathy is being able to understand what someone else is feeling or being able to see a situation from another person's point of view. The capacity to have empathy for another is essential for the success of intimate relationships. This is an obvious statement, but it is easier said than done.   When moods drop, and mental and emotional bandwidths shrink, empathy is hard to come by.   Humans tend to make assumptions and not realize they are doing so. We live in separate realities created through the filter of our thought systems and don't realize how far apart the way we see things...

Navigating Irreconcilable Differences. Why Bother Trying?

Angus and I have been hearing from people who are implementing the guidance we share in our Rewilding Love podcast and experiencing shifts in their relationships. One of the reviews said the approach is working like magic. We have also heard how the issues we discuss such as trying to change your partner or navigating anger feel like we are speaking directly to the listener. This shows how universal relationship challenges are. But one of the pieces of feedback that stood out to me was about how dire the relationship in the podcast sounds. And the question was, "Wouldn’t it...
