Whether you are currently single or in a relationship, we all undoubtedly have something to say about them—romantic relationships.
Esther Perel, the renowned psychotherapist, explores the intricacies of relationships in the modern age in her work. “Sex was once meant for procreation; now it is about performance and outcome.” “Relationships used to be rooted in tradition and rules—there was a great deal of stability and certainty, but little freedom. Today, the opposite is true: zero certainty, infinite freedom. Relationships now rely on communication—everything must be negotiated.” These are just a few of her thought-provoking statements you might encounter during our salon.
Perel suggests that contemporary romantic relationships struggle with the paradox of maintaining desire while seeking stability. However, she also approaches the topic of relationships from a broader perspective—considering friends and family, community, and colleagues.
