Kindling Guide for Couples

An 8-Part Journey of Connection and Renewal

How to Use This Course

Create Containers: Choose a rhythm that feels sustainable (at least once a week is recommended). Create a start and end ritual — (ex. light a candle, take three breaths, and set intentions).
Presence Over Performance: These activities are not about “fixing” but witnessing one another.
Safety First: If something feels charged or tender, pause and agree to return when you both feel grounded.
Remember the Self: Each exercise invites both the individual and the “we” to be honored.
