Intimacy — What It Truly Means (And How It Affects Your Relationships)

While sitting in front of my computer, one rainy Sunday afternoon, thinking about how should I wrap up the wonderful Vlog we’ve prepared for you today, I was struck by the difficulty of the process. Writing about intimacy is not an easy thing for sure. But why?—I wondered.

Intimacy is such a wonderful aspect of our lives. It encompasses all that is human, all that is essential, authentic, soft and warm and sheltering.

Intimacy is what we all dream about even when we are not aware we are dreaming about it.

But then, I knew it! Writing, like speaking or even thinking about intimacy comes difficult because, in reality, intimacy is neither about words alone nor about the ways of the mind. But about a synergy of elements mixing up, blending in, continuously interconnecting with each other until they come out as a completely unique magical compound.

In the past years there’s been a resurrection of articles and classes teaching about how to create more intimate connections — and maybe you are wondering why.

Truth is that many of us, men and women alike, find it more and more difficult to create deep, authentic intimacy.

Our capacity to be intimate with ourselves and with other people calls upon our softest parts and most tender spots. And our brains have this innate (yet tricky) tendency to freeze, fight or flight whenever we are confronted with a situation or person that foretells the possibility of intimacy. Why? Simply put it—because we are afraid to open up and be vulnerable, beyond any rational choice.

Yet, why is intimacy the most important part in any relationship? Find the answer in this video we’ve specially created!

Once you’ve watched, send us your Qs about anything related to intimacy.

What are you struggling with?

What are you curious about?

Do you feel there’s anything blocking you from having deep, authentic connections with yourself or with other human beings?

Do you seek guidance?

Over the years of working with men and women, as a coach, I came to understand one essential thing.

We may find ourselves separated by an extensive array of physical, psychological, social or spiritual differences. But there’s something that we all have in common — the fundamental desire to create heart-to-heart connections. And there’s little chance to get that in the absence of intimacy.

​​​​​That’s why we are committed to dedicating the whole month to the subject of intimacy— seeking to find out what it truly means and how we can integrate it in our lives.
