A gentle heart-centered meditation to practice with your partner to connect more deeply with one another

Sit down comfortably with a cushion on the floor or a bed with your partner. Facing one another, look into each other’s eyes. Hold hands or let your palms touch. Take a few deep breathes in and out, relaxing into one another’s presence. Breathe into your heart space, connecting with the vibration of love.

Visualise loving energy pouring out from your heart and flowing into your partner’s as you keep breathing, in and out. Think of the ways in which you like to express your love for them, how happy this makes them feel and continue to send them loving energy for a few moments.

Now shift your attention to receiving the out pour of love from your partner’s heart space. Allow yourself to receive. Think of your favourite romantic memory or something that they did to make you feel loved and appreciated. Then set the intention to remain open to receiving, as well as receiving more of the same as you journey together.
