- The passage describes the "dance of wounds" that occurs in relationships when needs for intimacy, attention, etc. are not being met and partners become distressed and critical of each other.
- It provides three examples of couples engaged in the "dance," getting caught in negative interaction patterns and blaming each other.

Dr. Lisa Firestone, co-author of Sex and Love in Intimate Relationships, often says
that the best way to think of love is as a verb. Love is dynamic and requires action to
thrive. As Dr. Firestone wrote, “Often, we spend our time worrying about what our
partner feels toward us or how the relationship looks from the outside. Even though it
feels good to be loved by someone else, each one of us can only really feel our loving
feelings for another person and not that person’s feelings for us. In order to connect
with and sustain those loving feelings within us, we have to take actions that are
loving. Otherwise, we may be living in fantasy.”

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
