Dimension One: Ego Functioning and Defenses: This e-book talks about the function of ego in our intimate relationship. Our ego, as we define it here, is a powerful part of us that is responsible for our physical survival, and helps us to thrive in our bodies, and in our physical environment. In exploring the concept of ego functioning and defenses, we move towards understanding ourselves, others, and how we interact in our intimate relationships.
Dimension Two: Spiritual Transcendence –
Our spirit is that part of us that is not concerned with our body’s survival or our personal achievements. Instead, it’s only desires are to love, be loved, and connect authentically with all other spirits. Our spiritual values are to embody kindness, empathy, appreciation, gratitude, truth, as well as the unconditional giving and receiving of love to and from all others. Understanding spiritually based values assists in helping couples to achieve what everyone seems to desire: a more fulfilling relationship, in which each person feels safe and loved in the way that means the most to them.
Dimension Three: Sexuality – Our sexuality is one of the most important aspects of ourselves, and we become aware of it very early in life, initially by identifying our gender differences. As we grow up, most people identify as either male or female. Some people, whose sexuality is not so black and white, may have mixed feelings and beliefs about which body they are born into, however, the fact that we are all sexual beings is undeniable. To a large extent it is our sexual attitudes and beliefs that shape our sexual-selves, and ultimately shapes our choice of our intimate relationships.
Dimension Four: Attachment and Childhood Development – When we care deeply about another person, we form an emotional attachment to that person. This is ubiquitous in human development throughout the world. The dictionary definition it as follows: Attachment is a deep and enduring emotional bond between two people in which each seeks closeness and feels more secure, when in the presence of the attachment figure. How we attach emotionally in our romantic relationships is a vital area to be both explored and understood, if we desire true intimacy to develop.
