3 Secrets to a Loving Partnership ~ A Workshop for You and Your Mate

12 Feb 2012 20:00:00 GMT

Unity of Roseville
107 Sutter Ave. (Lion's Club Bldg)
Roseville, Ca. 95678
Sunday, February 12, 2012, 12 – 3pm

3 Secrets to a Loving Partnership ~ A Workshop for You and Your Mate
Discover something new about yourself and your spouse and renew your commitment for a better life together!
Ask yourself:
Do you yearn for time just to sit and talk with each other? ~ Do you long to learn techniques to get you through the snags of misunderstanding more quickly? ~ Do you desire to deepen your connection with your mate?
We sure did. And during our first years of marriage, we didn’t have a clue on how to bring these simple yet heartfelt desires to life. We breathed death into our marriage … and we didn’t even know what we were doing to cause it.
It’s now 20 years later, and there’s nothing we’d rather do that spend time together. Sometimes it’s sitting by the fire; sometimes it’s grocery shopping. Could be walking in the woods or putting insulation in the attic. No matter. We are each others best friend. Gratefully, we learned how to make that way of being married our reality.
Every couple knows that learning how to communicate is essential for a happy marriage. Every couple knows that spending quality time together is important. Every couple knows that life is constantly changing and so are they, so they need to stay fresh and alive with each other. But they might not know how.
Want to learn what we do to keep our spark lit? Want to have that kind of break-through in your love?
At 3 Secrets to a Loving Partnership, you will open your heart and transform your interactions in minutes. Here’s a taste of what you’ll experience:
Listen closely to your mate ~ and see what is revealed when you do.
Share in a freeing, uplifting way ~ and feel the connection that results.
Open your heart and speak the truth ~ and see each other as if for the first time.
At this workshop, you and your partner will discover three insights on how to make your relationship vibrant and passionate insights that are personal and relevant to you. Does it matter what's important to the presenter? No. Does it matter what's important to anyone else in the room? No. What matters is that you walk away with concrete insights into your own thoughts, behaviors, beliefs, and ideas.
You will also gain skill at using three techniques for connecting with your partner even on the tough subjects that breed strife between you. You won't just be learning theory or hearing how they work in other people's lives. You'll be using them yourself, with your partner. In just a few hours, you'll prove the results for yourselves.
And, to help you remember and use the insights and techniques in the days ahead, you'll walk away with tools customized for you ~ handy reminders of the breakthroughs you had—that you can take with you wherever you go.
You'll gain all these insights, techniques and tools for only $45 per couple.
Unity of Roseville ~ 107 Sutter Ave (Lion’s Club Bldg) ~ Sunday, February 12
To pre-register, please call: 916-784-1054
And call now ~ because we know how important time together, going away together, is in a marriage, we will give the first 12 couples who pre-register for the workshop a three-day, two-night get-away. You choose the location ~ everywhere from Hawaii to Maine to Mexico or the Caribbean. Your room is complimentary!

Anne of Green Gables captures the charm and excitement of L.M. Montgomery's enduring classic about an orphan girl, Anne Shirley. The play faithfully recreates the memorable events and characters from the brilliant novel. All the tragedies and triumphs that mark Anne's growth are here, and if the playgoer is an "old friend" of Anne's or meeting her for the first time, this play will solidify a lasting friendship between the audience and one of literature's most unforgettable characters.

"A Jane Austen classic on the comedy and mishaps of romance"

Set just outside London in 1815, Emma, a beautiful and clever aristocratic young woman who prides herself on her matchmaking ability, is preoccupied with romance yet is clueless to her own feelings of love. When she takes on a new young friend as her latest project, her well-intentioned efforts misfire, leading to a whirlwind of complications. Devoted Jane Austen fans will enjoy the treatment of this stage adaptation while those who know nothing of the novel will still enjoy the comedy, the mishaps and, of course, the romance. Perfect Valentine's day fare.

Many of the popular and nationally known artists featured are inaugural artists of Evolve the Gallery’s 2011 Black History Month Made in America exhibit: Charly Palmer, Bryan Keith Thomas, Tamara Natalie Madden, Kelvin Curry, Kamal Al Mansour, Charles Bibbs, Stacey Robin H. Johnson, Keith Mikell, Stephen Bruce, Master fine artist Richard Mayhew and Sacramento local Gerry GOS” Simpson. New to the line up are The Twins, Cedric Cox and Ahmed Salam.
