Relationship Quotes
When I first met Ariel and Shya Kane, my husband, Andy, and I were recently married but very much separate. We loved each other, but we bickered and didn't really spend any time together. For us, there was no other way, no other possibility; this is what we thought relationship and marriage was about. You got married, raised kids, worked and eventually retired. After doing a Magical Relationship course as well as several other transformation seminars with the Kanes, Andy and I now share life! And I do mean "share" life!We have been married for fourteen years, own and operate an Internet Company together, work together closely in the same office, have a ten month old baby boy and are enjoying every moment together. Our level of trust and intimacy has grown exponentially. We hardly ever bicker and we have fun together.
People are often surprised that we work together and spend so much time together. They ask "How do you get along so well?". I reply "the workshops with Ariel and Shya Kane that we have done, and continue to do together, have supported us in sharing life, be it at home, in the office, or anywhere else. Instead of bickering or arguing, we now support each other in being ourselves...in fact, our best selves."
Participating in the workshops together has allowed us to become aware of our mechanical behaviors that were creating barriers in our relationship. We learned to listen to each other, truly listen. We learned to love each other, support each other and now he's my best friend, partner and lover. The best part is that there's more that we don't know, so we are excited about the possibilities that the future holds.

The first time I met Ariel and Shya I knew there was something magical about them. I watched the way they interacted with each other and it knocked me out. I'd never seen a couple be like that with each other. Of course I couldn't see the half of it, the most magical aspects eluded me, but what I could see was incredible. I saw such love between them, and such honesty, such direct communication, no fear, no manipulation, no underlying fights, nothing messy, only total love and acceptance. I'd never seen it before and meeting them was the first time I ever knew it was possible. That alone amongst their miracles saved my life. All the time I was looking for something and I didn't know what it was. When I met Ariel and Shya for the first time I not only instantly knew what it was, I started to believe that it was possible and that I could have it.
When my husband, Artur, and I went to our first workshop we were on the verge of breaking up for good. After one day spent with the Kanes we signed up to go to Costa Rica. Transformation would be an understatement. That weekend we experienced not only something we never believed possible for us, but something we never knew possible at all. What the Kanes have is a miracle. That they share it with us is a blessing beyond words.

My husband Bill and I have been married for 42 years and counting. About 8 years ago we went to Bali Indonesia to do one of the Kane's 2 week seminars on "Living in the Moment." At that time and for almost all of our relationship we related in a way I would describe as putting up with each other and hating it. We both were dissatisfied but were not going to do anything about changing things because that would have been just too scary to contemplate. It would mean financial decisions, admitting we had failed, it was easier to just live with things as they were. After all, I couldn't do any better anyway! We thought this was as good as it could be in a relationship. We were just plodding along waiting for our lives to be just a little better or waiting for that big break Bill would get someday with his art career and then everything would turn out all right. Maybe we could earn a little more money and then things would be better. Just better! I can remember being angry most of the time. Everything and every decision, every move was his fault if it didn't turn out. If it turned out at all it had to do with luck. My life looked the way it did because he wasn't this or he didn't do that. I had minimal to no responsibility in how the circumstances in my life showed up. We would fight and bicker all the time. I would get really angry, he would sulk and be silent, take himself away for days. I also resented that he never advanced in his career. I had fantasized he would someday become a well known exhibiting artist and then I could vicariously be important and famous as the dutiful wife of this "genius"! After being in the seminar for just a short time I came to see how I had totally blamed all the negative circumstances in my life on him. I had taken myself out of the equation. It was his fault and I gathered agreement from my family and friends to justify the way I saw it. I actually saw that the way we were relating effected how effective he was. I also experienced myself as an independent being that was totally capable and responsible for the way my life was and the circumstances in it. Out of being in the workshop we got to see how much we indeed did love each other. We were in love and had the possibility in each moment to interact with each other in a way that was new and fresh. Our lives have become about being a team not a competition for whose right and whose wrong. Our lives have become an exciting adventure into what's possible.
Oh, Bill has had 2 successful exhibits at a gallery and sold work. He has become a professor at the largest art school in the world, we have more money than we ever dreamed was possible. I am a Dental Hygienist and have 2 businesses both of which are very successful. In addition, our relationship to our daughter is beyond what we ever could have imagined was possible.
Ariel and Shya Kane's work definitely works. We are the living, breathing examples of what is possible out of "living in the moment" and we love every moment of it.
