Relationships

 

"Life is just one huge system of relationships. Therefore, our wellbeing, happiness and success, are entirely dependent upon our skill in relating firstly, to ourselves; and secondly, to the world around us." Théun Mares

 

Relationships form one of the biggest issues in the world today, and as people's material well-being and financial security become ever more imperilled, the resulting strain on their relationships is only increasing.

 

In reponse to this strain and the ever-increasing demands for hands-on courses teaching practical ways of transforming ourselves and our relationships, The Institute for the Study of Man under the direction of Elizabeth Schnugh, is making relationships courses available to the wider public throughout 2010.

Théun Mares elaborates on the importance of relationships:

 

"There is only one life, and we are all interdependent and interactive units of that one life.

 

Yet, because people have become so separative in their thinking and in their approach to life, they no longer relate to themselves or others in any meaningful way, and so it is no wonder that people are today so powerless, and that the world is in such a mess.
