Mental Focus Love Vibe relationship-building card game

Love Vibe – 200 positive-focus questions for couples about the past, the present and your shared future
A relationship is worth nurturing not only when there's a difficulty in it. Closeness, curiosity and paying attention to each other require conscious care even when things basically work well between you.
With 200 positive-focus questions, Love Vibe creates space for intimate, honest and sometimes playful conversations. The cards guide you through the past, present and future of your relationship: you can recall your most beautiful shared memories, notice everything that works well between you now, and put into words the shared experiences, habits and plans you'd still like to realize together.
The three theme worlds:

• Past – What was good in the past
• Present – What is good now
• Future – The shared future we are building

Love Vibe doesn't look for what's wrong with your relationship. It invites you to notice again and again: what makes it good to choose each other?

6 ways the Love Vibe card deck can help you

• Rediscovering your shared story

• Noticing what still works well now

• Better understanding each other's feelings and desires

• Gratitude, appreciation and positive feedback

• Shaping a shared future and shared desires

• Regular quality time and paying attention to each other

Why is it important to develop a relationship?

A good relationship doesn't stay unchanged just because it was formed once.

Both people are constantly changing.

New stages of life come:

• moving in together,

• marriage,

• having children,

• changing jobs,

• moving house,

• financial changes,

• family responsibilities,

• children leaving home,

• midlife changes,

• old age.

Meanwhile, desires, needs, priorities and everyday habits may also change.

That's why developing a relationship doesn't necessarily mean solving problems.

Often it's much more about:

• attention,

• curiosity,

• rediscovering each other,

• appreciation,

• planning shared experiences,

• becoming aware of the relationship's values.

A relationship can not only be repaired. It can also be cared for.

How does Love Vibe help with this?

One of the difficulties of couple conversations is that in everyday life the same topics often come up.

• Work

• Children

• Shopping

• Plans

• Finances

• To-dos

These are important, but they don't necessarily create emotional closeness.

Love Vibe brings questions into the conversation for which there's often no natural everyday occasion.

You might not ask on your own over dinner:

'What's your favorite memory from when we first met?'

Or:

'What is it about the way we live now that you definitely wouldn't want to lose ten years from now?'

The card gives you the question.

All you have to do is pay attention to each other's answers.

The three perspectives of Love Vibe

Past – What was good in the past

It recalls your shared story.

You can talk about:

• how you met,

• first impressions,

• the beginning of the relationship,

• important shared moments,

• shared trips,

• funny memories,

• defining experiences,

• how you've changed together.

These cards are especially good to combine with shared photos, old songs or keepsakes.

Present – What is good now

It directs attention to what you love in each other and in your shared life now.

You can talk about:

• each other's qualities,

• your habits that work well,

• what feels good from the other,

• what you need right now,

• the current strengths of your relationship.

The deck also recommends this as a relationship snapshot: stopping from time to time to look at what's good between the two of you right now.

Future – The shared future we are building

It invites you not just to drift through the coming years.

Talk about:

• what shared experiences you long for,

• what you'd still like to try,

• what habits you'd like to develop,

• what you'd like to preserve,

• how you imagine yourselves in 5, 10 or 20 years,

• what you'd like to build together.

A vision of the future isn't necessarily a five-year plan.

It can be a single shared wish that you begin to make come true.
