Elevate: Taking Your Relationship to the Next Level is a research-based program that blends practical skills with an understanding of the physiology of human interaction (the heart-brain-behavior connection) to enhance healthy relationship knowledge and skills. Two distinct characteristics of ELEVATE are (1) the practical strategies and tools taught , and (2) the inclusion of mindfulness practice activities that will help you regulate your heart-brain response to stressful triggers. You will learn the physiology of love (emotions & responses), empowering yourself (health & self care), laying the foundation (trust & commitment), enlightenment (shared information & expectations), value and respect (building the relationship, attachment (couples identity & positive interactions, tame (attitudes & conflict), and engagement (social supports & community ties).
