The Jewel of Life System: Introducing The Facet of Love & Romance
This post was originally written as part of the earlier Jewel of Life framework. While the language and structure of the work has evolved, the reflections shared here still speak to themes explored within Mind, Body, Spirit, and Style. You can learn more about the current Jewel of Life framework here.
Love & Romance is a main facet in The Jewel of Life System, which is all about self-love and our romantic partnerships.
Although we have many different types of relationships in our lives, one of the most important ones is the one that we have with our significant other. Love is something that we all need and whilst it comes in many forms it is often the romantic kind that we seek the most.
The unique bond from a loving, supportive partnership is like no other. This is a person we choose to share our life with through the ups and the downs, to create significant experiences with and to connect intimately on a mental, physical, spiritual and emotional level.
However, because of the significant role they play in our lives it’s not hard to see why finding, cultivating and maintaining these special relationships can be challenging. As we are all unique with our own needs and ways of being, it means that we have to learn to compromise without being compromised, so that we can create beautiful bliss filled lives together.
So Goddess, how do you feel about your love life? If you are already in a relationship are you happy and do you still want to be in it? Do you devote enough time to each other? Are you respectful and appreciative of one another or do you take each other for granted?
If you are single but want to be in a relationship what steps are you taking to make this happen? Do you feel that you are constantly attracting the same or ‘wrong’ type of person. If so, why do you think this is?
Regardless of your current status, what qualities do you want in your partner? Bearing in mind that none of us are perfect, what things are you willing to compromise on and what are the absolute musts?

Explore The Core Lesson
Every facet of The Jewel of Life System has an associated Core Lesson of Self, which when honoured helps us to create true happiness and fulfilment. The core lesson of Love & Romance is self-love because when we learn to love ourselves unconditionally we understand what it truly means to love another without conditions too.
Too often we expect others to make us feel whole because we lack a level of love and appreciation for ourselves. Whilst others can contribute to our happiness, true fulfilment can only come from within.

Learning to give ourselves permission is a vital part of living the Goddess Lifestyle, so Goddess, how are you going to give yourself permission in the facet of Love & Romance?
