Whether you are interested in discovering how you can prosper yourself more or you desire to attract the perfect mate, there is something in this issue of the American Spirit Newspaper for you.
Our tendency this time of year, with Valentines Day, is to focus on romantic relationships, however relationships take many forms.

All are intricate and worth examination, and this issue will perhaps help to clarify some of your relationships.
If you find yourself wondering why you don’t have the relationship you want, then perhaps you will glean some insight from the article, “10 Reasons Why You Don’t Have the Relationship You Want.” Many of us are puzzled by our seeming inability to attract a compatible mate. We think it should be simple, yet we don’t necessarily have the tools to attract and maintain a healthy relationship. Just as you have a learn how to drive a car or learn a skill at work, many of us need to learn how to have a successful relationship. I am sure there are some things in this article that will help you along the road to more successful relationships.

In today’s world we often find ourselves caught up in the externals of relationships. In truth, however, all relationships start on the energy level first. Agreements are formed between people that are often based upon very subtle energies that we may or may not be aware of. In the article, “What Your Energy is Saying That No One Will Tell You” the author explores how our energy field can be set up to repel that which we want most or to attract what we don’t want, often without us being aware of it. In this article you may also learn some useful tools to tune into what your energy field is saying and make it more attractive so you can attract what you want to experience the most.
In the same light, we set ourselves up to succeed or fail based upon the thinking that we consistently have been doing about ourselves. In the article, “Have You Heard What You’ve Been Saying to Yourself?” the author explains how we may sabotage ourselves by our own “self-talk”. Have you really stopped to listen to what is going on inside your head? Have you paid attention to the words coming out of your mouth? You could be thinking or expressing negative thoughts and these can manifest in your life as failure after failure. Getting a handle on that internal dialogue can go a long way to creating a better life for you.
Another pitfall that people fall into when it comes to relationships is the belief that you have to give it all away to everyone else. In the article “Simple Regimes For Well Being” by Debi Livingston, BCH and CI, you can get refocused upon the truth that the most important person you need to give to is yourself, and discover simple and effective ways to do just that.
