An excerpt from "Prioritizing Intimacy: The Secret to a Long-Lasting Love" a live webinar with Londin Angel Winters & Justin Patrick Pierce Recorded October 2018 Watch all webinars now at www.Patreon.com/LondinAngelWinters Q&A OUTLINE OF CONTENT & QUESTIONS 1A. WHEN WE BEGIN PRACTICING SACRED INTIMACY, WE START HAVING A HIGHER STANDARD FOR ALL OF OUR OTHER RELATIONSHIPS — HOW DO WE SHOW UP IN NON-INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS WHEN THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN “SHOWING UP”? QUESTION: This question is related to non-intimate relationships. I am finding challenges there. How do I apply my practice to the plutonic relationships in my life, like friends and family? I feel like those are still dynamics I do not trust fully. 1B. TRUSTING THE MOMENT OVER IDEAS OF “GOOD PRACTICE” AND BEING INFORMED BY THE WISDOM OF YOUR BODY IN RELATIONSHIP QUESTION: Continuation of previous question… could add another layer here if we want… something like… How do I practice with all relationships in my life and decide whether or not it’s correct for me to stay in relationship with some of these people (ie. friends and family) or if I should walk away? 2A. YOUR SOLO PRACTICE IS A GIFT TO BOTH YOU AND YOUR MAN—FIND OUT WHY QUESTION: My husband is going through a really rough patch. He lost his father last year, and has felt enormous pressure from work. He feels distant and unavailable. What can I be doing to continue to deepening my practice during this time? 2B. WHEN YOU’RE IN FULL SURRENDER, YOU’RE IN FOLLOW—WHEN YOU’RE IN SOLO PRACTICE, YOU NEED TO LEAD YOURSELF, SO IT’S NATURAL THERE WILL BE A TRANSITIONARY MOMENT WHEN YOU’RE MAN ISN’T AROUND QUESTION: When my man leaves, it always takes me a day or two to get back on track. It’s like the ground beneath my feet falls out and I feel lost. How do I handle moments like these? 3. HONORING THE TRUTH OF YOUR HEART INCLUDES SETTING BOUNDARIES AND TAKING SPACE QUESTION: I notice the more I practice, the more difficult it becomes to spend time with certain friends and family members. Why does this happen and what can I do about it? 4. WORKING WITH DEITIES, SERPENTS & THE PITFALLS OF ATTACHMENT QUESTION: I am having an amazing experience in my solo practice with a serpent deity. Are there other deities I can be working with in my spiritual practice? 5A. WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO IT, YOU’RE GOING TO ATTRACT CERTAIN PEOPLE BECAUSE THAT IS NATURALLY WHAT YOU ARE… WE CAN USE PRACTICE TO CHANGE OR TRANSFORM THIS FACT, OR WE CAN EMBRACE IT FOR WHAT IT IS QUESTION: I went on a date and I was surprised because I felt like I was in Alpha, but he responded as being quite attracted to me. 5B. PRACTICE - TRUSTING THE HEART AND BODY OVER THE MIND QUESTION: I have been using the practices you’ve been teaching me, lots of men are coming into my life, and I’m conflicted on choosing what I’m really looking for. Can you provide some insight here? 5C. CHOOSING THE GUY WHO IS WILLING TO FEEL YOU FULLY QUESTION: I’m having a hard time picking between a couple of men who are interested in me. One appears to be the guy I should like, but the other is the one who makes my heart flutter. What should I do? 6. DRAWING A LINE IN THE SAND AROUND YOUR HEART—AND STICKING TO IT QUESTION: As you know, I recently broke up with a man I was seeing. I told him I needed a clear answer from him on whether or not he wanted to be together—I gave him as much time as my heart could handle, but he never responded. I have been practicing and it feels like more things are being revealed to me about my role in all of this, and I am thinking of reaching back out to him. I want to write him a letter and let him know how I am feeling. What should I do? 7. YOUR PRACTICE SHOULDN’T BE A STRATEGY TO GET HIM BACK QUESTION: Londin, in your book you talk about creating space in the relationship when you felt Justin wasn’t 100% in. And then you describe how that space was actually what was needed for Justin to return. Will this work for me?
