The most important things in life are not things they are our relationships. First is our relationship with ourself.  Are you struggling with grief, addiction, anxiety, depression, job problems, love addictions, parenting issues, sex problems?  Are you wanting better communications & more intimacy? Maybe your past has left you feeling insecure, shamed, resentful, or angry. Is this an old pattern or a new situation that you're facing?
