Welcome to Couplehood as a Spiritual Path. This program will not only transform your relationship, but also shift how you feel about yourself, your partner, and the whole of your life. Couplehood as a Spiritual Path is a faith-centered educational program for couples developed by Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. and Helen LaKelly Hunt, Ph.D. Based on Imago principles described in the bestselling book GETTING THE LOVE YOU WANT: A GUIDE FOR COUPLES, this program is designed for all committed couples who want to realize their relationship potential.
COUPLEHOOD AS A SPIRITUAL PATH embraces couplehood as a template for spiritual growth through the understanding and advocacy of the other. It is an opportunity for couples to reach a higher level of spiritual potential by transforming conflict and differences into a healing activity of contact, connection and ultimately communion. It is our belief that creating and sustaining spiritual and egalitarian love relationships ultimately transforms society into a spiritual and egalitarian world thus restoring our connection to one another and to God.
What is it About?
Committed partnership can be one of the most accessible ways of experiencing God’s love, but it doesn’t always feel that way. No matter how hard couples try, it’s not always easy to “will” love unconditionally. Achieving and sustaining this kind of love requires an investment of time and energy and a willingness to transcend our usual patterns.
COUPLEHOOD AS A SPIRITUAL PATH takes an in-depth look at the psychological and spiritual workings of intimate relationships by exploring the origins of attraction and conflict. The goals include helping couples:
Learn a new way to talk and a new way to listen.
Co-create a relationship vision.
Acquire the skills to manifest this vision.
Discover the “otherness” of one’s partner.
Uncover the opportunities for emotional healing and spiritual growth.
Ultimately, this program describes a journey about a new way to love. Learning to give and receive love is the path to experiencing God.
