Description
"Full of wisdom as well as practical guidance about how to bring spiritual illumination into the very heart of our humanness."-John Welwood, author of Perfect Love, Imperfect Relationships and Journey of the Heart
Our natural state is to love and be loved. From deep within, we're compelled to seek connection. Yet relationships remain a struggle-even for the most spiritually enlightened among us. Traumatic experiences, insecure attachment, and especially the false but commonly held belief that we are separate, both from each other and from the love we seek, can cause endless problems in relationships. As long as our connections are built on this untruth, lasting love and harmony in relationship will elude us. Awakened Relating can help.
Written by a licensed therapist and pioneer in bringing the most direct teachings of non-duality into the practice of psychotherapy, this book Love offers practical guidance for improving relationships through "awakened relating"-a more enlightened experience of falling in love, communication, conflict resolution, and sexuality. With examples, guidelines, and experiential inquiries for realizing your true nature, this book will dispel common myths and mistaken beliefs about intimacy and help you cultivate a loving relationship with yourself and others.
Including inspirational stories of people who practice awakened relating in their own lives-including Adyashanti and Mukti, Rupert Spira and Ellen Emmet, Margo King and John Steiner, and more-this book will show you how to identify, transform, and resolve the deep psychological issues that prevent you from having the harmonious, loving relationships you seek. Now is the time to realize the deep and ever-present love that exists within and all around you.

is a wonderful and clear excursion into the inner life of intimacy. Lynn Marie
leads us into our true Self, where love is already and always fully alive and
ready to be shared. I found her insights profound and immensely comforting.”
—David Richo, author of How to
Be an Adult in Relationships
“Awakened Relating dispels
the myth of romantic love and points directly to an awakened way of relating
that arises from the recognition of our true nature as Love. Clearly
written, deeply insightful, and filled with illuminating interviews and
powerful meditative inquiries, this book is a liberating guide to meet the most
challenging areas of relationship from the light of Awareness. I highly
recommend it!”
—John J. Prendergast, PhD, author of In Touch
“Lynn
Marie Lumiere brings together a clear understanding of initial awakening,
psychotherapy, and intimate relationships in this cutting-edge book. Awakening
has historically been practiced in monastic settings or as a solo journey.
Today awakening is happening in the midst of our everyday lives. So, it
is most important to bring openhearted awareness to our intimate
relating. Awakened Relating is both an important and timely book that
opens the dialogue about awakening and relationships.”
—Loch Kelly, author of Shift into Freedom
“Breaking
new ground, this wise and eloquent book offers detailed guidance in embodying
our radiant, boundless, undivided true nature in the realm of intimate
relationships, where relational wounding and unresolved childhood issues may
make it challenging to live from the limitless love we know ourselves to be.”
—Stephan Bodian, author of Wake
Up Now and Beyond Mindfulness
