Have you ever wondered how some of your needs, desires, fantasies and beliefs about intimacy, sexuality, closeness and love tend to be constant and unchanging over time, while others depend on who you are in a relationship with? Have you ever wondered why all relationships are so different – why, with some people, there is an inexplicable physical attraction and chemistry that develops immediately (but there may not be, for example, the bonding glue that makes the relationship last), why some passionate flames burn for only one night and then die out permanently, and why, with others, you experience deep recognition, intimacy and closeness and are ready to build something lasting?
Or wondered why, for example, you need a long and open conversation for foreplay, but instead of talking your partner wants to cuddle and stroke or do something playful and extreme?
Maybe you’ve experienced in some of your previous (or current) relationships that, no matter how hard you try, your partner is still missing something? Or do you feel that you have a very loving and caring partner, but you have fantasies or needs that you find difficult to express or even satisfy? That, regardless of your partner’s love and care, the cup is always half empty?
If you’ve been in a number of different relationships before, you’ll already know from experience that each one is unique and special. Each relationship is a co-creation and cannot be recreated or replicated with anyone else. That is why we should not really compare any relationship – not with previous relationships, not with social norms, and certainly not with fairy tales of our own making (or of our own social adoption).
Acceptance and communication are the foundation of a truly lasting, vital and evolving relationship. As always, it all starts with yourself – the more you know and accept yourself, your own particularities, your needs, desires, longings and fantasies of intimacy, intimacy, love and sexuality, the more clearly you can communicate all of this to your partner, and the more open and accepting space you can create for your partner and their particularities. In addition, it is good to be honest with yourself and with your partner, especially about the needs or expectations that are important to you in an intimate relationship, and at the expense of which, if you compromise, you will suppress or deny a natural part of yourself.
The Human Design system provides the opportunity to view the connections between people as unique energetic entities (because when you are with a partner, it is no longer just you and them, but also your unique common element- “us”). This, in turn, gives you the opportunity to understand yourself, your partner, the specificity of the relationship, the unique development potential and, among other things, where your needs, longings and desires for sexuality, intimacy and intimacy may differ. This kind of understanding, in turn, helps to create the necessary openness and to find mutually beneficial solutions.
In this 90-minute workshop, we will focus primarily on themes related to sexuality, intimacy, closeness and love from the perspective of the Human Design System. We will look at the different activations of Human Design and some important aspects of the systemic approach to intimate relationships in family constellations.
You will get the most value if you already have a minimal knowledge of the Human Design system and are able to keep an eye on your own Human Design map (e.g. from your phone) in parallel.
By participating with a partner, you will have the opportunity to get to know yourself and your partner in an open and non-judgmental space, and to learn about the differences between you and your partner and the common ground you will develop.
As a single person, you will gain a better understanding of your own needs, desires and longings, and of what is most important to you in a relationship, what connections you subconsciously long for, and which partners you may feel particularly drawn to. This, in turn, will help you move into a new relationship with greater self-awareness and honesty.
In addition, we’ll also do a practical exercise that can be enriching for single people as well as those in a relationship.
