Throughout the week, couples will participate in four positive, meaningful and interactive PAIRS Essentials workshops:
The Heart of Intimacy
Constructive Conflict
Emotional Literacy
Putting It All Together
All materials will be provided for these sessions. For detailed information about the PAIRS Foundation and the
PAIRS Essentials Program and to speak with a Certified Instructor, please visit: http://www.pairs.com/
The following exerpts and information are taken directly from the official PAIRS website.
The Goal of PAIRS is a relationship that both partners can live with joyfully.
For this to happen, each partner must become able to identify his or her own feelings and needs, and learn to communicate them in such a way that they can get met. This means communicating one's needs and desires
without making the other partner feel resentful, smothered, burdened, manipulated, or inadequate.
Easily and fully meeting each others' needs is the foundation of intimacy, fulfillment, and happiness.
PAIRS teaches specific easily learnable tools for successful communication such as confiding, complaining, and clarifying and for effective problems solving such as managing anger, expressing anger safely, fighting fairly for change and eliminating dirty fighting.
"PAIRS has made a huge difference in our lives.
Our communication is better than it ever has been and if it starts to get off I know we have the tools to get back on track. Because of significantly better communication skills I think our level of trust and safety in the marriage has gone up.
I recommend this course to everyone who is willing to work to improve their marriage and their relationships in general."
