Completeness through Prime Relationships
How our approach is different and more sustainable
Our Prime Relationships drive our deep Happiness and Satisfaction with life. Examples of such Prime Relationships are - Life Partner, Children, Parents, Best Friend, Romantic Partner etc.
While most relationship counselors and consultants focus on immediate behavioral improvements, better listening and understanding, mutual appreciation etc., and these are important tools no doubt, our approach is distinctly different,
We base the entire Relationship Happiness paradigm on a sound conceptual model, be it for Life Partnership, Parenting, Friendship or Romance. The strength of such a model based approach is that not only does it empower you with immediate means to reap rich rewards in any relationship, it also leaves you with a life-long tool or a framework to refer to whenever you need to deep dive into any of your prime relationships.
So, when you come to us, you go back much more self-empowered, able to analyse your relationships anytime in your life by using our conceptual models, and not only deepen the happiness in existing relationships, but even create and recreate new ones by using these models.
That's our promise to you.
Our Relationship Model Explained
The Layered Model for an Ideal Relationship
Core Intent – It means the original intent with which each person enters into the relationship, especially the deep intents. Consciously or sub-consciously, these intents form the foundation of a relationship, for its entire lifetime. Knowing them and staying true to them helps continue a relationship, or disengage from it meaningfully, or even evolve it to the next level.
Shared Passions and Aspirations – These are the common or similar interests, deep desires and aspirations which each person brings into a relationship. They help align with each other easily and can be respected, nurtured and achieved together. This strengthens the bond in a relationship. But knowing and nurturing them requires self-awareness, sharing, understanding and teamwork.
Uniqueness-Complementarity Set – These are qualities and personality traits, even life priorities which make two people unique and different from each other. Knowing and acknowledging these, with a positive mindset leads to our capacity to leverage them for greater success in life and relationship. Not knowing or acknowledging them results into conflicts and antagonism borne out of discomfort of living with someone who is “not like us”.
Evolving Milestones – These are significant milestones happening in a relationship, which lead to a significant change in one or both the people in a relationship. Knowing and accepting such changes as inevitable, and being able to evolve oneself and the relationship through such milestones not only strengthens the bond, but even make us a better version of ourselves. Examples of such milestones are – Formalization of a romantic relationship into marriage, parenthood, career moves, loss of some near and dear one, children growing up into adults etc.
Change within Permanence – This is a perspective which looks at the larger bond of love within a relationship as a much more timeless and permanent force that holds it together and the changes in each other’s personalities, behaviors, priorities etc. happening over a lifetime as temporary and situational. With a combination of accepting love as the larger force and changes as temporary yet positive drivers of evolution, the relationship can stay vibrant, secure and dynamic.
Relationship as a Force of Evolution – When we learn to look at a relationship as the force that helps us to evolve into a better version of ourselves, we develop the capacity to celebrate its trials and tribulations as much as its achievements and joys. This outlook requires us to have a commitment towards our own evolution as a significant goal for ourselves, only then it works for us.
Rules of Disengagement – Even though disengagement is always a sad event, if it is handled at the right time, based on the right conclusions and using the right principles, we can at least avoid making it bitter and even, perhaps, make it a win-win for everyone in the relationship.
