The Month of Romance and Love: #9 of 14 Tips for finding better love

by Renee Lindstrom, GCFP @ Inside Awareness

#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.

Love Day 9Tip 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

by Renee Lindstrom, GCFP @ Inside Awareness

#7  Intimacy & Vulnerability

Vulnerability comes from trust.  Trust grows from friendship.  Are you seeking gratification or longing for bliss?  if you choose bliss, practice friendship.  Enjoy making friends and the joys of bliss from exploring your shared values and sharing experiences.

Love Day 7Tip for the day:  Be committed to getting to know many friends.  Use this time to practice fun and enjoy the getting-to-know-you process before getting serious.

“Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.”

James Baldwin

The Month of Romance and Love: #6 of 14 Tips for finding better love  

by Renee Lindstrom, GCFP @ Inside Awareness

#6  How you love is how you are loved

If you love through sex, you will be loved only for sex.  If you love money, you will only be loved forever by how long you have value to the financier.  If you love to be taken care of, you are loved until the novelty of loving you wears off!  However, if you are clear on your needs in a relationship and your love is expansive, you will receive back deeper everlasting love.

Love Day 6Tip of the Day:

Write down 5 things that you love and are loved in return for.  For example:  You are caring, therefore cared for.

 “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

The Month of Romance and Love: #5 of 14 Tips for finding better love  

by Renee Lindstrom, GCFP @ Inside Awareness

#5  Relationships are on the physical plain

Relationships are the manifestation of your hopes, dreams and intentions.  The conscious or unconscious seeds sown will result in capturing a love connection. However, it is a balance of your whole self that will determine the state of your experience in your relationships.

Love Day 5Tip of the day:  A relationship is in real-time. Once love is found it only lasts if the interactions and shared experiences are compatible.

Love yourself first and everything else falls into line. You really have to love yourself to get anything done in this world.”   

Lucille Ball

Immature love says: ‘I love you because I need you.’ Mature love says ‘I need you because I love you.’

Erich Fromm


Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.

Ann Landers


There is no remedy for love but to love more.

Henry David Thoreau


We can only learn to love by loving.

Iris Murdoch


The first duty of love is to listen.

Paul Tillich
