Conscious Uncoupling

“Through Conscious Uncoupling, I was able to take a hard look at my feelings of anger and resentment”

I’ve been divorced for 16 years, and I have spent much of that time trying to find out why I fell so far short in love, not only in my marriage but in other relationships I was in after my divorce, as well. 
Through Conscious Uncoupling, I was able to take a hard look at my feelings of anger and resentment, and I discovered that the struggles in my romantic relationships were a direct reflection of my old wounds.
Deep down inside, I saw that I’d been holding onto the belief that I wasn’t worthy of the kind of love I desired. Once I saw my beliefs clearly, I could reframe them and replace my negative thoughts and emotions with forgiveness for myself and others, and begin a practice of gratitude for all that I was and for all the many blessings that I did have. I even phoned my former husband and we shared a pleasant and loving conversation after being estranged for years.
A few months later, I set the possibilities I held for love in motion by writing a very clear description of my ideal partner that I posted on an online dating site. That same day I was invited out by a man who fit the description of my perfect match, and we have since gone on to co-create a beautiful, happy, healthy committed partnership.
I am in this amazing space because I took the time to heal my wounds and prepare myself for the love I both desire and deserve to have. I finally own my power and beauty. And I had the courage to declare to the Universe my desire to find my partner, and took concrete action that was consistent with my intention in order to attract the partner of my dreams into my life!
