Bless you – this gives me a lot to think about as my hubby and I are feeling that "openness" but are struggling with the possessive concepts we were raised to believe at the same time.

your story is sooo mind expanding! love it. I wonder how you are able to fully grow and nurture multiple relationships at once, though. On a completely different topic…I was wondering if you train others in shamanism?

Thanks for sharing yourself.
You are truly inspiring!
Love & blessings to you!

This is completely nuts. I just don't see how it could work.

Anita – giggle – one step at a time is how I move… are you currently practicing something different? Let me know? This was quite a journey for me, and I am always expanding, always growing… do you have children? Tell me more about you! I think that Physical and SPirit are both valid. I think that marriage and open are both valid. I think that all possibilities are good ones for someone – but I blog about the possibilities that I have created. Nothing more. Send me a link to your blog! Are you writing on it? Are you practicing? Nice to meet a new friend!
And a coach at that! YES! Send links! My spiritual journey is documented here on my blog… Keep reading sweet lover…

What I dont understand is why are you still practicing the western ritual called marriage and not creating a new way to hold the space for what you are doing and calling eachother your partners…or whatever this is to be…not only is it necessary to create a new language but also to redefine at the same time…Most of what you are speaking of is already known as "Open….I dont consider it a marriage because it isnt the same paradigm and by the way this is how we spent our hippie days in our small communes…sharing, giving, trading and caring for each others children…This is a somewhat village orientation…only no other culture has this history or so I dont think…my question is how do you create balance when so much that is runnig this thing is about the physical plan and not the ruled by Spirit…Spirit has none of these needs to the point of anxiety and getting over another external force of thinking and believing…I would have liked to read more about this being a spiritual journey and rather than one that appears to be a struggle with desire…and as a coach myself what is your background of learning and your coaching philosophy…peace and gratiude

I really enjoyed this post. I could see how any couple married more than 10 years would consider an alternative approach to the relationship.I could imagine how liberating it was for you to break out of the traditional Westernized approach to marriage that often makes us want to take full ownership of our partners. This ownership mode often leads to mistrust, deceit, and infidelity in the long run. Plus, my mother always says many men and women in relationships give a love to another human that should only be reserved for the Most High.

WOW! Your story is very similar to ours. Even the time line of last falls family vacation and v-day of this year. We also had landmark moments during those times. We have not let go of the western idea of “ownership”, but we’re working on it.

Much Love Sis

This is soooo awesome!!! I married my hubby at 23 and he then was 39 and there was much to get through.. him being a young widower and me getting over a horrible relationship coupled with having an abortion from said ex… but the love grew especially upon meeting all 5 kids and seeing what a wonderful father he is .. i said i’ll be damned if i let this go.. this is what i want and what i need… i should email you more detail though ;o).
