Mindfulness for Couples and a Vision for a Loving Planet

Hi, I'm Mikael.

My mission on this planet is to make men and women happy. This is why I write about mindfulness for couples.

Here goes my story.

It begins in 2006. I was recently divorced when I attended a workshop with Marion Rosen, a legendary body therapist. At the workshop I learnt a new way of touch, soft touch with awareness.

I realised that I had never before touched anyone in this manner, not even my own wife. It was a very special moment, discovering how to consciously and physically connect to another person. It was not about sexual touch, it was about human touch.

In my next relationship, I used the "Rosen way of touch" with my partner. It made me connect to her in a much more intimate way than I had experienced in previous relationships. Eventually we parted, but I feel very grateful for the time with her.

Then I met the woman I am living with today. She introduced me to the book Making Love by Barry Long. Reading the book together with her changed my entire perception of what it means to be man and woman. This was in the summer of 2014.

Barry Long writes about a state of pure love between man and woman, that supposedly existed many thousands of years ago. His writing touched something deep inside me. It made me see my partner in a new way. I truly felt that we belonged together and had a strong and loving connection.

It also made me see how mindful touch could be used to restore that mythological state of pure love between woman and man. Me and my partner started exploring mindful touch practices together. This was the beginning of the Uniwoman project.

Project Uniwoman (Unification of Woman and Man) is a vision for restoring pure love between woman and man. The project aims to develop and spread mindful touch practices for couples. By practicing soft touch with awareness, couples can connect to each other in a deeper way. This can be a very loving and transformational experience that has the potential to affect the entire planet.

Since many thousands of years have passed since the state of pure love existed on earth, it will likely take some time to heal and regain love and trust between men and women. Therefore the project is set up to last for 5000 years. This is how long I believe it will take.

Good news is that as an individual couple you don't have to wait that long. You can get in contact with your partner today by practising soft touch with awareness. That is the beauty of it.

Pure love is available within the reach of your hands. You just need to put your consciousness there. Into the contact between you.

Begin by holding hands. Be aware of the contact between you. Be together in the present moment.

If you are with a date, ask if he or she wants to do a relaxing touch practice. Put your hands on the shoulders of your date. Be there with soft hands for a couple of minutes. Don't massage, but feel into the contact with your awareness.

All of you on Steemit are invited to be part of this project. You are very much needed, for this blog is not about me, it's about all of us.

Thank you so much for reading!
