12. The Three Types of Intimacy Practice Sep 11, 2024

"I'm having an experience of being human here. I've got a heart. I've got feelings. I've got sensations. I'm living life. I'm dealing with joys and disappointments and fears and my own brand of neurosis and you're probably doing the same. And so when we start to reveal our shared humanity to another and we start to really tune in to each other's fears, each other's desires, each other's experience of being human, we begin to recognize our own experience of being human through another, that is another beautiful form of intimacy."-John Wineland

4. The Power of Embodied Grieving May 15, 2024

“As humans, there is no escaping loss. There's no amount of money that you can make. There's no amount of impact or fame you can have that is going to shield you from loss. Death is inevitable. Loss is inevitable. This is one of those really beautiful emotions that bonds us as humans, just like love does. And so, the capacity to grieve is also the capacity to be connected to humanity, to have a thread through which you can not only feel your own grief but also feel the grief of other people.” — John Wineland

2. The Price We Need to Pay to Be in a Relationship Devoted to Sacred Intimacy May 01, 2024

“Devotion to the relationship, devotion to our partner's nervous system also requires that we let them know how we tick, that we let them know where our reactivity is coming from. We let them know exactly how our nervous system is going to respond to certain stimuli, certain triggers. So just being able to identify and bring our own awareness and our own sort of ruthless honesty to the things that are going on in us is an incredibly helpful way to lay the groundwork for sacred intimacy.” — John Wineland

1. The 3 Pillars of Sacred Intimacy Apr 24, 2024

“The way that intimacy works is through revealing, and intimacy gets strengthened when we're able to know each other's deep desires, needs, childhood programming, know each other's deepest fears and wounds. So when we endeavor to expand and deepen our intimacy together, there are very specific practices we can do to know each other better as humans and to know each other as divine beings beneath the human. And when we practice these things pretty consistently, it creates a really beautiful, resonant hum in our love life.” — John Wineland
