Arielle Ford: Hi, Everybody. Its Arielle here and I am so excited to be with you tonight. I want you all to take a quick moment to say a big, energetic, Hello! to the 100,000 others from 171 countries around the world as we begin this perfect beginning to Day 1 of The Art of Love Relationship Series. As we start this journey together, I want you to know that Im holding the space for you to use the next eight days as a springboard to creating the relationship of your dreams. Weve gathered more than 50 of the worlds greatest relationships love experts to share with you the best and latest techniques for developing a truly connected and passionate relationship and I cant even sit still. Im so excited about diving into these seminars. Its my intention that this series provide you with the healing, inspiration, clarity and most importantly, action plan that will allow you to create a wonderful and loving relationship whether youre still looking for that someone special or youre ready to take your relationship to new heights because as most of you already know, I have been married to my soulmate, Brian, for over 16 years now and like everybody else, its not always easy and weve certainly hit bumps in the road, but because of our commitment to continually expanding and growing our relationship, we both know how important it is to be able to grow as individuals and as a couple. This is why this series is just so exciting for me and I cant wait to share it with you. Also, another really, really incredible aspect of this series is our esteemed faculty. Weve brought together the best of just the absolute best out there and available. Tonight, right now, I have with me one of the best of the best and she is my co-host for this evening, the wonderful, amazing, electric, New York Times bestselling author of No Matter What, Ms. Lisa Nichols. Im sure all of you know who she is but for the few of you who may not, shes an internationally renowned speaker, a member of the Transformation Leadership Council, Head of Motivating the Masses, and her past seminars in The Art of Love Series have been among the most popular

weve ever offered. During the series, shes going to be teaching a brand new, incredibly important seminar called Deepening Your Friendship: The Secret Formula to Achieving Greater Understanding and Acceptance with Your Partner. Im sure youre not going to want to miss it. So Lisa, Lisa, Lisa welcome. Im so thrilled to have you here! Lisa Nichols: Thank you so much for inviting me, Arielle. I cant wait to spend this time with you and everyone joining us tonight all committed to making their love lives better. Thats exciting. We have so many exciting things planned. Ive been looking forward to this for days, for weeks now. Me too. I always love being with you and you couldnt be more welcome and I know Ive told you this many times, but I am such a fan of yours. Ever since I rst saw you in The Secret and I was just like, Oh my God, who is that goddess? I remember thinking, Okay, if I ever grow up, I want to be Lisa Nichols. Im just so happy youre here. Thank you so much, Arielle. I appreciate that. Its a big part of why were here and what were doing tonight, isnt it? Just really learning to be an inspiration and to inspire everyone joining us to take greater control of their love lives, to create the kind of happiness and partnership every one of us absolutely deserves. Yes. Youre totally, exactly right. I want to just take a quick minute now to give everyone the history of this spectacular Art of Love event because over the years as Ive shared my process for manifesting love with thousands and thousands of men and women and Ive watched them successfully nd their beloveds, I started wondering, What would it be like if everyone could experience love this way? What would the world be like if more people lived everyday with their soulmates and area really deeply connected, passionate relationship and how much better would the world be with that much love in it? Thats where the idea came from, which has now grown into our third annual event and in the past, its been so successful that every year it grows and it expands

and we get the brightest and the best love experts and we make new discoveries and we can provide the most effective tools and the proven strategies so that everyone who truly desires a conscious, connected, satisfying partnership can have one. I can vouch for that, Arielle. After last year, I could not wait to come back. And Im really, really glad you did because not only have these events been attended from people around the whole world, the entire globe, they have literally changed thousands of lives. So before we start digging into the highlights of our upcoming incredible love changing seminars, I want to rst, let people know who this series is for, because weve been getting questions like, Is it only for married people? Is it just for couples? Does my partner have to participate with me in order for me to get the benets? I just want to be very clear that this series is for everyone. Everyone who desires a passionate, loving, deeply connected relationship with a partner. Thats almost everyone and regardless of whether or not youre with someone right now, this series weve lined up for you will support you in either the relationship youre in or the one youre headed for. Believe me, if youre not in one right now, it probably wont be long before you nd love after you discover all the powerful tips and techniques we have in store for you over the next nine days. If youre wondering why Im so passionately committed to putting this series together for free year after year, let me just tell you why. And heres why, its because even when people are in good relationships, where both partners have the best of intentions, most of the time they lack the relationship skills and habits that build the kind of closeness and connection that will set us up for long term happiness, satisfaction, and contentment. I hear from a lot of people who say even though theyre in a relationship, they feel alone or misunderstood or under supported even when they know theyre with the right person and then there are others who say they wish they could recreate the kind of exciting energy that they had in the beginning of the

relationship, but they dont know how. Then theres a whole group of people who are struggling with things like money problems, household maintenance, or just the day to day frustrations that can undermine any relationship no matter how connected you are. We all know that nding someone to love is incredibly exciting, but making the relationship successful year after year is actually a completely different art that requires practice, skills were not born with, and things that we really need to learn. I can tell you that right now, really communicating with your partner, communicating to get your relationship needs met, can actually be simple and were going to prove it to you over these next nine days. Even if right now youre worried or concerned about the big conversations about sex or money or whatever, were going to show you easy ways to go about it, ways that are going to bring you and your partner even closer. So, thats what were up to here for the next nine days in The Art of Love Series. Weve developed incredible seminars to specically support you in creating the close, connected, soul satisfying relationship that youve been longing for. Isnt that yummy? That sounds good to say and hear. Right. Dont we want that? Yes. We want to be satised on the deepest level. That is so, so fabulous, Arielle. I get excited just thinking about it, hearing you talk about it. Thats exactly why Ive been inspired to be involved with The Art of Love Series, to help give people access to the latest tools. Youre so right, tools and techniques are something that you have to learn. Youre not born with them, so that you can get the kind of remarkable partnership in your life that you deserve every single day. Lisa, you are such a genius. Why dont you just download for us for a few minutes ways that our 100,000 listeners could begin preparing themselves to open up and take in all this juicy information?

The Art of Love Relationship Series

The rst thing I would say is to give yourself permission. Everything starts with personal permission. Dont keep score on any of the past relationships, romantic or friend or family, that you think didnt work. There was a great lesson that you learn. Always say, You either get a great outcome or you get a great lesson. Both are great. Dont keep track on what you think you did wrong. When you know more, youll do more. Youve done the best you could with the information you had at the time and now youre about to go into this wonderful wealth of information thats going to have you make different decisions based on what you now learn. Give yourself permission. Dont keep score and then come in as a hungry learner. Hungry. When you come in saying, Im going to act as if I know nothing, then you can learn so much. Make sure you refrain from, Already know that. Already know that. Be a young learner, young mind, hungry for whats possible and then dont judge the learning. Dont judge the content. Love the content. Embrace the content. No matter how it sits a little heavily on your heart, how it reminds you of something that may not have gone the way you thought it should go, allow the information to be about your future, not your past. Again, dont keep score based on your past decisions. Come as a hungry learner. Give yourself permission, I deserve healthy, abundant, satisfying love. Repeat that mantra from this moment forward, in your mind as were talking and as we go through the series, I deserve healthy, passionate, abundant love. Just keep giving yourself permission to invite in a new experience in your existing relationship or new relationship thats going to be so incredibly beyond anything youve ever seen. It all begins with personal permission. Then the nal thing Id say is celebrate yourself now. Celebrate you for where you are now. Gratitude is the best magnet for blessings and gifts and rewards and great tools and techniques. Gratitude. When you sit in gratitude, you dont kick open one door. You kick open the double doors for possibility for the universe to say, Let me give you more of what adds value to

your life. So turn up your gratitude volume and make sure that youre living and youre listening to this entire series in a space of constant gratitude. I love that and I really love the one about being a hungry learner. It reminds me of a Zen practice of beginners mind. Yes. By immersing yourself in all the incredible, powerful seminars over the next nine days, youll be able to absorb all of it much better, setting yourself up for the kind of relationship and bliss that few people ever get to experience, but that everyone deserves. I cant wait to personally help you with the specic details about the series including wholl be featured in some of the specic topics of these experts and what theyll be focusing on. Its going to be juicy or as I love to say in this case, delicious! And I want to recommend to everyone listening to make sure that you take a few minutes to give really, really clear about exactly what you most want to get out of these nine days especially since theres so much youre going to get. Youve got to be clear on what you want, on what you need. Maybe its to have more constructive and nurturing arguments with your partner. Since theyre going to happen, have more constructive arguments and more nurturing arguments instead of battles or is it to create more passion and romance in your relationship? Or maybe its to nally, nally let go of the past hurt thats been keeping you from being truly connected to your partner whether theyre already in your life or whether theyre on their way in and you want to invite them in with a healed heart. Having that clear intention before you even attend the rst seminar will absolutely show up and allow you to show up differently and engage differently. Youll take notes differently. Youll listen differently, but I cant encourage you enough to take a few minutes to set that goal now, like right now before this series starts and thenthis is importantkeep checking back with that goal to see how youre moving toward accomplishing it. Give yourself markers or milestones and document the key steps that helps you move toward that goal.

That is amazing advice, Lisa, and I really couldnt agree more. Setting a personal intention is really a fantastic way to dive into this rare opportunity to be truly, truly supported on your path to creating a fullling, satisfying, connected relationship. I think that right now is probably the best time to talk about how the event is structured and what you can expect from the next nine days. The rst thing I want you to know is that weve once again, carefully selected the best of the best of the worlds leading experts in the relationship eld. This will save you all the time and trouble of trying to gure it out for yourself. In these special seminars weve created, each expert in the series is going to give you highly valuable information, tools, and strategies relating to their unique area. Most of these experts have been researching and teaching for years and years and they have books and articles and theyve been read by hundreds of thousands around the world, but the most exciting thing about this series is that were going to get their very latest, cutting edge discoveries and insights and theyre going to be revealing leading edge exercises and tools that can fast track you to having the relationship breakthroughs that you need in your life right now. As part of our time together tonight, Lisa and I are going to outline some of the specic key topics were going to be covering over the next eight days and well give you some highlights of what youre going to experience in this series as well as some important details about how to actually access the seminars online. I know that like Lisa and I, all of you have very busy schedules. Right, Lisa? Yes. Were busy. So were going to talk to you about what you can do if you arent able to be there for any of the live broadcasts. Right now, if you havent done so already I want you to click on the link on the event page that you used to join us here tonight. Its the link that says, To view the full schedule for this series and learn about our upgrade options, please visit The Art of Love Series Program Information Page. Just go ahead and click on that blue link or you can simply type in ArtOfLoveAudios.com into the search window

and then follow along with us on the page as we point out a few of the most interesting things about this years series. To get started, I want you to know that there are seven key areas that were going to be covering in The Art of Love. Weve built the entire series around these seven keys, dedicating each day to one key because these are the core areas that we really need to focus on to create closeness, connection, and lasting love. Ill tell you what the seven keys are. Key #1: Improving your Communication Skills. We found this has been the number one thing couples are missing in their relationship. Key #2: Ending Blame, Judgment, and Criticism. Of course, who wants to be criticized? Key #3: Deepening Intimacy and Connection. A skill all of us need to learn more of. Key #4: Having Soulful, Satisfying Sex. Okay, who doesnt want that? Key #5: Healing Betrayal and Restoring Trust, and while that sounds really hard, our experts show us how to really do it. Key #6: Creating Authentic Partnership. So critical to a long lasting relationship. Finally, Key #7: Having Play, Fun, and Friendship in Your Relationship, something thats going to make it all worthwhile. I think if you can master those seven keys, youll be waking up in bliss every day. So each day for the next eight days you guys are going to have access to four powerful seminars that all relate to the key for the day. This is going to create a powerful opportunity to really dive deep into each key and hear from a wide variety of experts who are focused on the same areas. Lisa, why dont you start us off with a highlight from our rst key: Improving your Communication Skills. Id be happy to, Arielle. Okay. So the seminar were going to talk about rst is from world-renowned relationship expert, Alison Armstrong, who I

absolutely love and have had a blast being around. Its called, Mastering The Art Of Expression: Powerful Communication Tools To Get Your Needs MetLike Magic. I love that. Now, as Im sure you know, for most of us, when were feeling a need isnt being met in our relationship, its often very difficult to voice that need to our partner and we often wait until were resentful or even angry before we nally let them know how weve been feeling. Well, in this seminar, Alisons going to magically show you exactly how to easily and fearlessly express your needs to your partner in such a way that your partner will not only be willing to meet them, but will be glad to do anything to make you feel happier and more fullled. Thats super exciting. She covers things like, two questions to help you get crystal clear on what you do need. I found, Arielle, that sometimes Im not even asking for what I need, like I got to get clear on what I need rst and I know this will be a great course where shell show us how. How to request time to talk about an unmet need without your partner pushing the panic button. She covers so many things. One of the other many things shes going to cover is how to stay centered in the face of a big, negative reaction from your partner and still get the outcome you want. She covers wonderful topics. Yes, and the thing thats so great about Alison is she makes it fun even though its big, heavy stuff. Yes. Okay. Youre probably not going to get the reaction that you wanted, but heres how to stay focused and centered and were going to get you to where you want to go. Im so happy that this is really going to be one of the rst big keynote talks that everybody hears because how can you make changes if you dont know how to set up a container for the change? Thats really what Alisons a master on and I know Ive learned so, so much from her over the years. Shes just a genius. genius, genius, genius. I agree. I agree.

Other geniuses Ive learned a lot from are Dr. Diana Kirschner and David Essel and theyll be teaching the next seminar were going to highlight tonight and its called Finally Be Heard: How To Have Crucial Conversations On Everything From Sex To Kids To Taking Out The Garbage. I just love that title, right? Yes. Often in a relationship, its the mundane, everyday issues that could be really just as tough to talk about as the more complex emotional ones. With seminar, Dr. Diana and David are sharing simple ways to be a better listen and a better communicator about all kinds of issues, including a proven formula for being heard. In fact, David Essel shares three key questions to help you identify whats really worth ghting for and then three steps for cooling off during an argument and then coming back together. They also offer this fun littlelets call it a tip, rather than a trickon some nicknames you can use when you really need your partner to hear you. I love it. What a wonderful seminar thats going to be. Lets move on to Key #2 nowEnding Blame, Judgment, and Criticism. The seminar we want to highlight in this area is called Overcoming Money Madness: The Secrets To Navigating Rough Financial Waters With Ease. Wow, this is so important because I personally know that so many great relationships have ended because of the nancial conversations. This is going to take place with radio talk show host and success coach, Gina DeVee, author and personal nance expert, Jordan Goodman, and best selling author and radio host, Dr. Jackie Black. I just know this seminar is going to make such a difference in so many of your lives because Im sure you know the toll money issues can take on a relationship. This is critical and what I love about this is that you also take away content thats just for you as an individual, which we know two individuals make a powerful relationship, but once you know exactly how to approach having conversations about money and have discovered how to establish healthy understandings about the roles it plays in your lives, it can never be a source of conict between you and your partner again. Some of juicy topics that theyre

going to cover are the ve step process for engaging your partner in a healthy, productive discussion about money, six different money types, and the quiz you can take to nd out your and your partners money type and how to objectively examine your money values and how theyre supporting you. I love it. So many topics. The whole thing about Key #2: Ending Blame, Judgment, and Criticism, we decided it was such a big and important key that were dedicating two days to it. Its that good. On the second day, weve added this seminar with Harville Hendricks and his wife, Helen LaKelly Hunt and its called Feeling Safe And Secure With Your Mate: The Key To Addressing Incompatibilities Without Threading The Relationship. One thing I can tell you about this seminar that nobody should miss nobodyis that I asked Harville and Helen to do something theyve never done before. I asked them to recreate a dialogue that they had years ago that changed the course of their relationship and by the end of that, they so got into it, we were all in tears. They went so deep, so transparent, so vulnerable, and it was such a teaching moment about how to really show up for your partner and how to really reveal whats underneath the childhood wounds. Im still spellbound by the whole thing. Im excited. You should see me over here. Im like twitching my feet. Im like, Give it to me now! Give it to me now! I wont do it justice if I gave it to you now. Im just telling you, do not miss the Harville Hendricks seminar. Then the other one well be doing on day two of that is with Eben Pagan and his wife, Annie Lalla and I love this title. Its called, The Art Of Enlightened Fighting: How To Have Healthy Fights That Actually Improve Your Relationship. Often parents get left out when it comes to getting recognition for all the help they do and all the challenges they face when it comes to trying to

maintain romance and connection with each other, so were doing something really special for this in this series and its called Becoming Partners In Parenting: How To Parent As A Team Even When You Disagree. I couldnt agree more. Parents really do deserve more recognition. Having a rst year college student right now, I can so embrace that. Now, the third key were going to talk about tonight is Deepening Intimacy and Connection. The rst seminar were going to highlight in this area is with someone whose seminars have been some of the most popular year after year after yearEFT Tapping Expert, Nick Ortner. Im a big fan of Nick myself. This seminar this year is called, Coming Together: How To Use The Scientically Proven Tapping Method To Instantly Decrease Stress, Resolve Conicts, And Increase Love. If youve ever tried tapping, then you know how effective it could beand it could be really effective. This year, Nicks going to focus specically on showing you where and how to tap to release past traumas from your body, that may be negatively affecting your relationship and your ability to make relationships last. Hell even be working with two volunteers so youll get to experience the process with them and follow along and get a better sense of how to do it yourself. If youve ever tried tapping, youll be amazed at how easy it is to get started. Nick will give you everything you need to be able to start tapping away your stress and bringing more love into your life. Hes going to cover amazing topics like, powerful research ndings about why tapping works, and thats a great foundation for you to know. Exactly where and how to tap to release sadness, frustration, and negativity. We all can use that. Hell also cover how tapping can instantly change the tone of a relationship even if only one person is willing to use it. Great stuff. Arielle: Yes, and Ive been with Nick for seven years and hes just the most amazing guy and hes taught me so much about tapping, that I actually use almost every single day, whether its for frustration, upset, disappointment, sadness or even physical pain, but its just an amazing, amazing thing and I highly recommend it.

Now, the next seminar in our spotlight is called Becoming A Safe Refuge For Each Other: How to Support Your Partner Through Grief, Illness And Lifes Unexpected Difficulties. In this were featuring author and psychologist Dr. Ken Druck. Lisa: One of my favorite people on the planet. Arielle: Isnt he? I actually had dinner with him last night, lucky me. Lisa: Exactly, lucky you. Arielle: He is amazing, yes, and then weve also got bestselling author and self-love expert Christine Arylo and a soulmate couple who are renowned speakers and activists, Ocean and Michele Robbins. Now, quite understandably, nobody really wants to think about grief or illness or having a sick partner, but you and I both know theres nothing more critical than to have your partners dedicated and loving support when youre faced with any kind of tragedy. Lisa: Exactly, youre right. Arielle: I know. Really, thats when you most need Lisa: Absolutely, please show up and please know how to show up for me in that time. Arielle: Exactly, so we dive really deep and we talk about the rst most important step to surviving a trauma. The number one thing to avoid is you and your partner grieve a loss of any kind, what spitting in the face of the universe really means and when you should do it, and a mantra, that will help you get through the pain. Lisa: Thats another subject that doesnt get enough attention, Arielle. Having to go through things like that when you feel isolated and alone, it could be absolutely devastating. I hope that everyone out there listening is beginning to see that this is so wonderfulthe whole series is wonderful. Everything is critical. It really covers every possible aspect of being in a relationship and will basically give you a map and a guidebook that will help you deal with any and every challenge and opportunity that comes along to deepen and enjoy your relationship with

your partner much more and really have you create the phenomenal future that you envision for yourself. Now, speaking of opportunities, Im predicting that our next key is going to be a popular one and its pretty easy because it has to do with having soulful, satisfying sex. Our rst seminar in the spotlight from this key, is with author extraordinaire and host and lead therapist on VH1s Couple Therapy, Dr. Jenn Berman, and its called Getting What Youve Been Craving In The Bedroom: How To Make Your Sex Life More Intimate Than Its Ever Been. This one-of-a-kind speaks for itself, doesnt it? I think Im blushing, and blushing when youre chocolate brown is difficult to do, but Im blushing. Everyone knows that when you talk about sex and what you want from your partner, it gets better. Isnt that right, Arielle? Arielle: Well, thats been my experience, Lisa. Lisa: Mine, too. Then the question is, why is it one of the hardest things for couples to talk about? The only important answer is that it doesnt have to be. In this seminar, Dr. Jenn will give you all the tools and techniques youll need to be able to communicate about sex openly and honestly and without feeling nervous or stressed. Shes even going to tell you the number one reason your partner withholds sex and what to do about it, as well as sharing the reasons some of us lose our libidos, especially we women, and how to get it back. Shes going to cover some amazing topics like where, when and how to bring up the subject of sex, how to ask for what you want and get it, the number one way to give suggestions so your partner wants to take them and four reasons, especially women, lose their libido and how to get it back. I love this stuff. Arielle: Oh, shes amazing, Dr. Jenn. I mean not only is she the lead therapist on Couples Therapy, she also has a show on Oprah Radio every day. Shes just the hottest thing out there these days. Along with this key featuring sex and relationships, we have another panel with Reid Mihalko, Charlotte Rose and Dr. Tammy Nelson and its called, Embracing Your Fantasies: How To Bring Erotic Play Into Your Love Life. Another title that speaks for itself, but its really important when it comes to sustaining a loving, long8

term relationship. Lisa: It sounds to me like youre speaking from some experience again, Arielle. Arielle: Okay, now Im blushing. Lisa: Now our next key will be Healing Betrayal and Restoring Trust, and the rst seminar here features the number one bestselling relationship author in the world, Dr. John Gray, a good friend of mine, author of the Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus series of books. I love John. Arielle: I love John so much. He is just so brilliant, but beyond his brilliance, hes just one of the most caring, giving people Ive ever met. Lisa: Me, too. I believe that. I have been friends now for over 10 years and hes so consistent and he never runs out of amazing content. I can just sit and talk to him for hours and Im always learning something new. Arielle: Okay, and whats his topic? Whats he talking about? Lisa: His seminar in this series is called, Repairing Whats Broken: A Powerful Process To Help Real-Life Couples Move Past Obstacles And Regain Trust. In it, hes not only going to show you how to do exactly that, but for the rst time ever in a seminar like this, John will be working with two real-life couples to try to help them save their relationship and overcome the challenges that have been tearing them apart. Super, super exciting for us to witness. It will be like youre eavesdropping on one of Johns actual therapy sessions as he teaches these couples an easy and important communication technique designed to bring you back into connection with your partner so that you can nd the trust and intimacy that will keep you together. Arielle: I want to just say something about that because this process that he teaches, he calls it Venus Talk and it literally only takes 10 minutes to do and the best part about it is that youre not actually talking about the relationship issues. Its four questions and when you get through them, youre back in love and deeply connected. It is one of the

coolest processes Ive ever seen. Its just amazing. Lisa: I love it, and hes going to also cover the number one communication tool to help men or women with being heard. Men know thats so important in a relationship to feel like youre being heard. Hes also going to cover the three-step process for handling the stresses of life as an unstoppable teen, super, super, important. Arielle: Lisa, this thing that Johns doing where were eavesdropping in on real therapy sessions, its the rst time this has ever been done. These are usually closed-door sessions, right? Its just amazing because if youve never been in couples therapy, you get a sense of what its like. You also get a sense of just how powerful it is to have an objective third party guide you through your issues. Also on that day, weve got an amazing seminar with Drs. Gay and Katie Hendricks which is called Healing From Betrayal: How To Rebuild Trust, Reignite Love And Create A Bond Thats Stronger Than Ever. Lisa: Theyre both brilliant. Theyre so brilliant. When Im around them, I just feel more love oozing from my pores just in their presence. Arielle: I get it. Well, they are the creators of Conscious Loving. The Hendricks are amazing. Then our next area of focus is authentic partnership and our spotlight seminar is with a wonderful group of renowned experts. We have again the amazing Alison Armstrong along with Dr. Sheri Meyers, Evan Marc Katz and Al Watts. Theyre going to be focusing on a very, very touchy subject. I would call it the giant pink elephant in the room in 40% of American homes, the thing nobody wants to talk about. This is when women out-earn their partners. This seminar is called Bucking Traditional Roles In The Name Of Love: How To Navigate Tensions When The Woman Is The Breadwinner. This is really a complex issue that rarely ever came up until maybe the last 10 years, and now its happening more and more, and its causing all kinds of problems and confusion, but heres the bottom linewomen can and should be proud of their learning ability and

there are lots of ways that can help their guys feel proud of the contributions theyre making to their gals success. Its a big paradigm shift, but in this seminar, these experts are outlining all kinds of winwin solutions. Some of the things they talk about are, eight genius questions to ask and get clear about what making money means to you, and the number one way people end up unhappy in their role and its not what you think, the number one thing women have to gure out to be happy with their role inside of any relationship, and the most dangerous phrase you can use when negotiating roles and responsibilities with your partner. This is something nobody wants to miss. Then I also want to let everybody know that our very own Katherine Woodward Thomas whos one of our lead love and relationship teachers here at Evolving Wisdom will be doing a keynote as well as our resident soulmate couple, transformational expert Claire Zammit and her husband, spiritual teacher Craig Hamilton, so youre going to want to check the times and make sure to not miss them. So Lisa, whats next? Lisa: One of my favorites, Arielle, Play, Fun and Friendship, which is why my own seminar is featured here. As Arielle mentioned earlier, its called Deepening Your Friendship: The Secret Formula To Achieving Greater Understanding And Acceptance With Your Partner. In it, Ill be sharing all kinds of easy-to-use tools to help you overcome relationship obstacles by being more compassionate, forgiving and bonding more deeply in friendship with your partner. Once youre able to more quickly and easily connect with your partner on a friendship level, youll nd that so many of the roadblocks and trouble spots that got in the way before will simply disappear, allowing you to be more relaxed and intimate with one another. Its almost magical. Ill cover things like the step-by-step process of deliberate forgiveness. Forgiveness is something you must choose and Ill show you how to choose it in a step-by-step process. The number one phrase to use to get your needs met right away, four keys to breaking down walls and creating a more honest

connection with your partner, and the key phrase thats a true gateway to understanding every single time. Arielle: Speaking from my own experience, I can tell you that deepening your friendship with your partner is one of the most critical foundational elements for a lasting relationship. I mean being best friends with my husband Brian is really the core of our success as a couple, and adding into this theme, were going to have another seminar called Date Your Mate: The Easiest Ways To Immediately Ignite Passion And Fun In Your Relationship, and this one features that wonderful, bouncy woman, SARK, Dr. John Waddell, Dr. Terri Orbuch and Carol Allen. With that in mind, as an additional exploration of our previous key of authentic partnership, weve also asked eight of the most loving, long-term soulmate couples we know to share their tips for relationship success. Youll hear from Brian and I as well as couples like Panache and Jan Desai, Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt, Dawson and Christine Church, Marc David and Emily Rosen, Lion Goodman and Carista Luminare, Zhena Muzyka and Gerard Linsmeier, Jerry Jampolsky and Dianne Cirincione, and for the rst time ever, weve also asked eight different Love Masters to share with us specic techniques on how to have, do, be and share more love in the world. So everyday well have 15-minute conversations with one of our incredible Love Masters that include Gabrielle Bernstein, Neale Donald Walsch, Marci Shimoff, Mary Morrissey, Rick Hanson, Susan Piver, Bradley Nelson and Jennifer McLean. So these are just some of the highlights of the incredible love-changing seminars well be featuring over the next eight days of the series. Right now, what Id like to do is let everyone hear from what a few people whove attended previous Art of Love events have shared about their experiences. First were going to hear from one of the women who tapped live with Nick during his seminar coming together and Im so excited to have her here with us tonight, so she can share with you rsthand

about her experience. Maureen, are you there? Are you here with us? Maureen: I am here. Arielle: Oh, its good to talk to you. How are you? Welcome to The Art of Love. Maureen: Thank you so much. Its good to be here. Arielle: Well, I was wondering if you could share with us just a little bit about the issue that brought you to be tapping with Nick Ortner. Maureen: What brought me was a lack of communication and closeness between my husband and I after 14 years of marriage and two kids, some frustrations that come up. Arielle: Fourteen years is good long time. I imagine there would be a little bit of frustration coming up. How was the experience of tapping for you? Maureen: I really actually enjoyed the experience with tapping with Nick. Ive tapped before and he really helped me to clarify the issues and focus on the best way to put it together for tapping on these particular issues. Arielle: So as you know, when you are tapping generally, the person working with us will ask us to rate our pain or frustration on a scale of 1 to 10. Do you remember where you started off on that scale? Maureen: I started off at a nine on that scale? Arielle: A nine, thats pretty high. After you and Nick were tapping for a few minutes, did that number drop? And where did it go? Maureen: It had dropped and it was down to about a ve. Arielle: Great, and did you end up getting any lower than that. Maureen: I did. Ive not tapped when the issue is consistently as possible, but since then Ive tapped several times and I denitely see it going longer. Arielle: Thats so great. How is that issue now? Do

you feel like it helped improve your communication and closeness? Maureen: I do feel it helped and I denitely see when frustrations come up, if I take the time to tap on them before I confront my husband, that we start at much better place than if I just let the reaction come out and just confront them. Arielle: What would you say is the most powerful shift youve seen in your relationships since your experience of tapping with Nick? Maureen: I feel like I canmy husband doesnt tap, but I doI feel like I can take a step back and actually listen to my husband, rather than just get defensive and sit down when Im talking to him. Arielle: So it really opens up space for you to be available to be more connected to them? Maureen: Yes, it does. Arielle: Thats so great. For those that are listening in that have never tapped before, would you share with them a little bit about how easy and effortless it is? Maureen: It really is easy. One of the things that I liked best about tapping with Nick and actually listening to it and tapping again is that you can focus on just the little things and just focusing on one or two events that happens in going through the rounds. It clears up other rounds or other issues that you have and collapses them so that you dont have the same frustration when you go back and think about them. Arielle: Yes, I know for me when Im tappingand I start off at this intense level of whether its sadness or disappointed or frustrationits always amazing to me how quickly that can shift into a more neutral space. Do you nd that as well? Maureen: I nd that a lot and I think thats what allows me to then be available when Im talking. The frustration and the anger is gone and its a neutral actually, looking at the problem. It happens in a matter of minutes, which is always amazing. Arielle: Now, are you nding that youre using the

tapping, when its just you, youre nding times during the day to use it to release other kind of frustration? Maureen: Im working on that, nding the time. Tapping can make you feel if youre in the middle of group people, a little awkward, but if Im going to buy myself, I try to nd the time to take it to deal with issues with my children or the frustrations over dealing with school systems which I think helps, too, just to bring that calmness again. Arielle: Maureen, would you recommend that everybody listening in learn how to tap? Maureen: I do recommend that everybody learn how to tap. I nd it a really quick way to help release the anger in frustration and Ive even starting teaching my seven year daughter how to tap to dill with some of her anger issues and frustration. Arielle: Thats just fabulous. Yes, kids pick this up really quickly, good for you. I nd when I need the cap, I just nd a bathroom. I just go hide in the bathroom. Maureen: Ive done that. Unfortunately, my kids dont tend to respect the privacy of the bathroom. Arielle: Well, they can tap along with you. Maureen: Yes, were working on that. I appreciate it. Arielle: Okay. Well, I know youre a busy girl, Maureen, so were going to let you go, but I want to thank you so much for sharing your experience with us. Thank you. Maureen: Youre welcome. Arielle: All right, well talk to you again real soon. Maureen: Thank you. Arielle: Alright, bye-bye. Maureen: Bye. Arielle: That was so great. I think you guys are all going to love that seminar with Nick. Its coming up

on Saturday, April 5th, and I really hope you enjoy it. Be sure to denitely tap along with Maureen and Jessica on their issues because youre going to get some relief as well. I promise, youll all see some amazing results. Lisa: That was so fun to hear about her experience. Arielle: Right, I love that. I just love to hear from those of you who are coming to the events and really putting what you learned into practice. Its really exciting. In fact, lets hear from a couple of people who attended our previous Art of Love event. Ive got an excerpt here from a letter we received from Martha in the UK and in it, she says, Thank you, Arielle, for all your fantastic work and for showing me whats possible for my relationship. Im enjoying my partner on a level I never dreamed possible and now I look forward to every new chapter we embark upon together. I know your work has helped us. I dont think we would still be together if it were not for you sharing what youve learned about The Art of Love. Thank you again. Lisa: Wow, thats amazing. Heres another one from Wendy in Virginia. She writes, I want to thank you! The reason I have such a powerful transformative relationship is because of the insights and work that Ive done through your programs. Ive found my Brian! I have found amazing guidance to what youve already created and turned to The Art of Love recordings in times where we wished to improve our relationship. Every day keeps getting better and Im comforted knowing that you have so many resources to help us to continue to grow and keep our love alive and fresh. Arielle: I just love that, Every day just keeps getting better. That is so great. Well, heres one more from Rodi in California and she says, Thank you so much. I believe its because of your excellent Art of Love Series that I attracted my current partner and soulmate and I have never felt better, more at ease, more loved, more condent and more supported. In turn, Im able to do more in my family and community and career. Blessings and goodwill to all of you. Lisa: Its so wonderful to hear about such remarkable

transformations happening for people as a result of what they discovered in past series, Arielle. Its exciting. I absolutely cannot wait to hear from this years participants how the event continues to support so many of those same people in creating even more connection and fulllment in their love life and how many new people are going to be reached with those critical tools and techniques that can transform their relationships fast. Arielle: Yes, me too, Lisa. Now what I want to do is give everyone all the details on how they can access all these seminars everyday during the series because for the next eight days, every day were going to email you a direct link that will point you to our virtual event room where you can nd all the information you need to participate in that days event. Starting at noon tomorrow, April 2nd, through the following Wednesday, April 9th, each day therere going to be four seminars. These will feature our experts focusing on a specic topic relating to that days key focus, and then therell be a bonus interview with an inspiring soulmate couple and a conversation with a Love Master. If youre online, you can see the full program schedule complete with a calendar of all the seminars and the speakers at ArtofLoveAudios.com. Get to ArtofLoveAudios.com and the sessions are going to broadcast at 12:00 noon Pacic, 3:00 PM Eastern every day, and if you cant make it to the live broadcast, dont worry. The recordings of the seminars are going to be available for free for 24 hours after the initial broadcast, and we structured the event this way to make sure it was possible for everybody in the entire world to have access to this information no matter what your time zone or what your nancial resource is. Over the last three years, weve received such amazing feedback from so many participants that two things became really clear. The rst is, peoples schedules are so busy that it was inevitable they missed one or more of the seminars during the event, and two, many people wanted more time than 24 hours with each seminar because theres just so much

rich material to absorb. Weve solved both of these problems by creating a few special packages that I want to take a minute to tell you about and we call these our Upgrade Package Options that weve created. If you think youre going to miss any of the seminars, or if you think you might like to listen to them more than once, or even if you just like to have a written transcript to be able to read on your own time in a way to deepen your engagement with the material so you dont have to try and take notes while youre listening to the seminars live. Theyre also great if, like me, youd rather listen to the audios on your iPod or MP3 player or get the CDs to listen to in your car on your way to and from work or when youre working out or whatever. If this describes you at all, then I encourage you to invest in either our Basic, Premium, or Premium Deluxe Upgrade options because by choosing one of these options, you then get to listen anytime, anywhere, and youre going to have access to a ton of fantastic bonuses that are going to really enable you to embed this information in your subconscious for maximum results. Lisa: I know that for me, Arielle, to really grasp new information, it helps to hear it over and over and over again. Each time I listen to something like that, I discover something that I missed from the last time. Arielle: Yes, me too, Lisa. Thats exactly how it works for me. I have to really immerse myself in new learnings and new teachings and then when I hear it again, theres a new distinction that I didnt quite get the rst time. As someone whos been a seeker for a long time, I know that to get the long-term results and to get the transformation, for me, repetition is really key because I know that repetition creates habit and habit creates lifestyle. Once you have unlimited access to these seminars, youre going to be able to move through them at your own pace, in a sequence and take in all that they have to offer, or you can listen to a particularly resonant seminar over and
