How would you know if you are love dependent? How would you recognise it? How can you overcome the consequences and the effect of love addiction and learn to create and build healthy, loving relationships?
Sabine Young MA is a transpersonal psychotherapist and Imago relationship expert, specialising in codependency, addiction and recovery. She did the Process in 1999 and since then has been an advisor and supervising therapist for the UK Hoffman team.
In this specially-written article for Hoffman, Sabine explores the origins of codependency and love addiction - timely for February, the month of plastic hearts, overpriced flowers and panic-bought chocolate.

The Telegraph has recommended the Hoffman Process as one of its top six 'transformative retreats', as part of a recent article by journalist Anna Hart, exploring wellbeing breaks:
'At any emotional detox, some guests arrive with specific traumas in mind: a painful divorce, redundancy, bereavement or other transition. Others feel that issues like burnout, stress and anxiety are impacting their professional and personal lives. Some feel 'stuck' in destructive patterns, behaviours and habits, and they sense that their emotions are having a knock-on effect on their physical health, such as weight gain or digestive issues.
We all have one thing in common: we’re honest enough to accept that we need some help and support in order to live happier lives. Some of us feel desperate, some of us are impatient, some are simply curious. But we’re all honest enough to admit that we need something more from our next holiday than a suntan and a hangover.'

Hoffman relationship workshop leaders Matthew and Emma Pruen have years of experience helping people to keep their love lights shining.
Their 2022 Hoffman workshops are relevant for either individuals seeking a loving relationship or for couples attending together. Over two days, Matthew and Emma will share practical techniques and exercises, tools to take away - as well as a healthy dose of personal anecdotes. Both workshops are being held in person, in London.
Watch a five minute interview with Matthew and Emma here.

Below, you'll find a list of Hoffman Process dates for Spring 2022. Courses at Florence House do fill up quickly, but Wait List places regularly become available too, especially for people who are able to attend at short notice.
If a residential course isn’t for you at this time or you'd like to try some Process tools and techniques before committing to a full week, our two-day online course, The Hoffman Essentials, may be of interest.
|
|
* At the time of writing! There is often movement, and even when a Process is on a Wait List, a place may still become available. Ring the office on +44(0)1903 88 99 90 or email info@hoffmaninstitute.co.uk to find out more.
