Face to Face

Couple's Workshop: Face to Face

Our tradition teaches us that when man and woman were created, they were united back to back leaving them unable to truly see each other. Through the process of separating, individuating, growing, desiring, and uniting back together, they were able to stand fully face to face, fully seeing each other in intimacy.

This workshop is facilitated by Chaya & R'Hillel Lester. In it you will cultivate tools to turn fully face-to-face with your partner. It provides new frameworks for communication around the core principles of relationships through interactive exercises, discussions, and skill building.

In this workshop you will:

• Discover a deeper, more meaningful relationship
• Build trust, respect and intimacy
• Learn to communicate with accuracy and sensitivity
• Gain greater self awareness within your relationship
• Identify and let go of self-defeating behaviors
• Learn to focus on meeting your partner’s needs
• Gain tools for conflict resolution

Testimonials from participants of the workshop:

* “We warmly recommend participating in this couples workshop...to every couple, newly wed or sharing a life time of marriage.”

* “The workshop was brilliantly built, combining ancient Jewish mystical knowledge from the Kabbalah, together with the most contemporary psychological methods and practices.
