Structuring Space & Time at Home to Maximize Polarity

In this video from a discussion with John’s 2020 Advance Practice Group in the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, he addresses the Masculine question of, “How do I structure space and time at home with my Feminine partner so that we can maximize polarity?”

 
 

You’ll learn:

  • It’s important for couples to create separate spaces in your home to deepen and practice. It can even be parts of rooms, as long as they are intentional.

  • It’s difficult to create polarity when you’re doing the same thing together all the time - eating, sleeping, working out, etc.

  • While in quarantine, it takes creativity and discipline to develop rituals that are separate.

  • One of the things that the Masculine can do to lead the relationship with their Feminine partner while working in the same home together is to be intentional about the ways in which you are available for connection. For example, “From 9-5, I’m off the relationship grid, but at 6 o’clock, I’m all yours.”

  • Thinking forward and owning the space you need in order to live your truth is a gift to your Feminine partner because they can relax into that truth.

  • This creates a very clean structure for your relating.

  • For most of the Masculine at work, the structure is clear - i.e. “I work from 9-12. Then take lunch from 12-1. Then I have a meeting from 1-2.” etc. But once they move into relationship, they tend to be swayed by the flow of relationship. That can be fine at times, but it actually helps the Feminine to relax when you’re clear.
