Hey there darling,
Intimacy and Connection – if you have intimacy you have connection, right?
Wrong.
We put together this video for you because we’ve been a part of the conscious relationship community for a while now. And we’ve noticed something very disturbing around the concepts of intimacy and connection.
Namely the promotion of intimacy without connection.
Some might ask how is that even possible – but rest assured – it DEFINITELY is.
And it’s Dangerous.
Why?
Because it eventually leads to greater feelings of abandonment and rejection. Without connection (meaning to bind together) – sharing intimacy (which means to make known) we’re sharing our deepest most sacred goo in an arbitrary and somewhat haphazard manner. And when that person no longer wants to hear it – they walk away.
Rinse repeat. Rinse repeat.
This way of moving through even casual relationships leads to an internal depletion that eventually leaves you empty and brittle. Having given so much of you to so many – when the RIGHT one comes along – you have nothing left to give. Not only that but you most likely have not learned to cultivate the art of receiving and listening – of being bound together that creates ultimately a sustainable and fulfilling relationship.
This is not to say that practices like OMing, Polyamory, and the like are “bad”. It is to say that they need to be handled with care. Not like a kid in a candy store- but as an adult using tools. They can build or destroy. Just like everything else.
Watch the video. Then share, comment, like. – More to come!
Love,
~Richard and Namaste

Vulnerability is the key…
This is my first time watching one of your videos. 2 things:
1) Omg, you are both adorable, and
2) I definitely needed this. My husband and I have no issues in the commitment area, but we seem to be missing out on the connections you speak of and I think the reasons are what you bright up about giving it away until there is nothing left. My previous relationships drained a lot from me, because I chose to try to connect with men who weren’t willing to also try to connect. Now I’m left scrambling to create intimacy without fully connecting. The smart phone, computer, and social media have taken precedence over that. I’m choosing connection with strangers over my husband. Pinning recipes and time management tips take priority over real conversations and face time. Thank you for my Aha Moment!!!
