“Intellectual Foreplay”
With: Eve Eschner Hogan, M.A.

Do you practice Intellectual Foreplay?

You know how people often choose partners by "looks good/feels good" and then find themselves in relationships that aren't good?! In fact, people tend to ask more questions about a car they intend to buy than about a partner they are considering sharing their body and their life with!

Intellectual Foreplay is a provocative term for a practical tool guiding you to engage in intimate conversations that serve as preparation for (or revitalization of) a healthy relationship.

This week, Eve will be sharing some useful tools and essential skills for making wise choices, gaining clarity and for creating lasting love-online and off.

Review of this program:

In this fun and highly informative program, the very popular author, relationship expert, and workshop leader Eve Hogan shared with us the process of "Intellectual Foreplay" which is a provocative title for the practical tool of asking questions of yourself and a potential partner and listening to the answers in order to get to know each other better. Rather than choosing our partners by "looks good" and "feels good," only to find out that the relationship isn't really good, Eve showed us how to use both our head and our heart for making wise decisions and creating lasting, healthy relationships.

Eve also spoke of the steps shared in her newest book, "Way of the Winding Path: A Map for the Labyrinth of Life"--remembering who you really are, self-observation, letting go, getting centered, and taking aligned action as tools for enhancing both our self-esteem and our spiritual authenticity.

In honor of the release of "Way of the Winding Path," Eve is currently doing a book and labyrinth walk (walking meditation) tour through California, please tell your friends in the following areas where she will be speaking:
