Soul Mate Relationship with your Partner

In client sessions, I hear people talk about wanting to feel like โ€˜๐—ฆ๐—ข๐—จ๐—Ÿ ๐— ๐—”๐—ง๐—˜๐—ฆโ€™ with their partner again.  Theyโ€™ll say when they first met each other, they felt like theyโ€™d met their ๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น ๐— ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒโ€™.

Fast forward years until now, their ๐˜€๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น๐—ณ๐˜‚๐—น connection has been replaced, with other priorities, other commitments and general life stuff.

Social media, memes and articles all about โ€˜being soul mates with your partnerโ€™ all over the internet and itโ€™s quite glamourised.

But what is not really talked a about, is that being in a โ€˜๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น ๐— ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒโ€™ type of relationship, takes
๐Ÿ’— ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€๐—ฐ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ and

So bringing this back to being relevant when Iโ€™m working with couples who say they want to feel like each otherโ€™s โ€˜๐—ฆ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—น ๐— ๐—ฎ๐˜๐—ฒโ€™again, itโ€™s about keeping it real for them.

Iโ€™ll ask them questions like: ๐ŸŒฟ โ€˜๐˜๐˜ง ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ธ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฐ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ด๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ง ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜จ โ€˜๐˜š๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ ๐˜”๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ดโ€™, ๐˜ธ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜ธ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ญ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฑ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฌ ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ?

So here, we begin to unfold and re-create what โ€˜๐—ฆ๐—ข๐—จ๐—Ÿ ๐— ๐—”๐—ง๐—˜โ€™means to them, to their unique definition, not to what society or what others say.
