Happy Love Day! #14th Tip to finding better love
by Renee Lindstrom, GCFP @ Inside Awareness
#14 – ‘Signs of Attraction’
Mutual eye contact is a sure sign of attraction. Brief glances catching each other’s eyes without turning away that may lead to other body signals. The first stage of passion in relationships will lead to the second and third stages; emotional intimacy and commitment. If this is the partner of your dreams, enjoy this first stage of romance and the growing excitement of passion. Take your time and enjoy the foreplay without rushing it. It is the easiest and greatest stage of any relationship and creates mystery and intimacy. Too soon and it’s lost!
Tip of the Day: Take your time noticing each other reactions and flirt-i-ness. If you are attracted you will make gestures that you find mirrored by them. Love this stage as this is the time of heightened dreams and hopefulness. Don’t rush past this stage and extinguish it too soon.
“A kiss is a lovely trick designed by nature to stop speech when words become superfluous.”
Ingrid Bergman

#12 ‘Easy Fun & Adventure’
Trying too hard by interviewing your date for your next serious relationship? Are you being interviewed for the next great lay? STOP! This can be the time to share experiences and find out what you have in common. Ease the pressure by keeping it fun and turning meetings into great adventures.
Tip of the Day: Hang out first. No pressure. Just enjoy each other’s company. Everyone could use new friendships. This can be a time that is the honeymoon of friendships.
“True love comes quietly, without banners or flashing lights. If you hear bells, get your ears checked.”

The Month of Romance and Love: #11 of 14 Tips for finding better love

#11 – The Connection
Your intuition will tell you immediately if you are in company with someone compatible if you are listening to it! It’s all in the open gestures, comfortable friendliness levels, pitch of voice and eye contact. One way of noticing compatibility is the language connection. It’s not about what you say, it’s how you say it that might give you answers to the longevity of this relationship.
Tip of the day: Within 10 minutes you will know if it will be rewarding to put time and energy into pursuing a relationship. Notice it their eyes remain in contact with yours. This indicates they are into you. Notice if the words they use are the same or similar to yours. For example: Do you both use, Great as an expression or a statement such as I am interested in….. Pay attention to words they use that disturb you. This will never change it will only become more annoying!

Announcing the passing a great worldly influence
I am so sad to receive this news: Dr. Marshall Rosenberg has passed away on Saturday, February 7th.. It was recently discovered that he had late stage prostate cancer. He passed peacefully at home, with his wife Valentina and all his children by his side.
A beautiful man and mentor that connected me to the language of my heart! May the world remember him for his gifts.

#9 Listen to your intuition
Meet new prospects in public in an easy, fun and lighthearted location. (Don’t stay online – take it public) Listen to your ‘first impression.’ What is your gut telling you? Can you be authentic and stay integral to what matters to you? Are you comfortable? Are they comfortable? Can you be yourself? Your goal is to find out if they are looking for a successful relationship or the novelty of attraction. A successful relationship is life-enriching and the novelty of attraction becomes life-draining and can become a fatal attraction.
Tip of the Day:
Be objective. Notice the warning signs and if you stay centred or if you’re trying too hard and giving too much. Go beyond the physical attraction. If conversation is a struggle now it will always be a struggle. Notice the rewards in connecting. Yes, conversation is rewarding.
“Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well.”
Vincent Van Gogh
