Thank you for visiting the Twinlineal Institute...
"The notion of ‘Black Love’ in this book is an answer to the hatred that has taken place between Black men and Black women.”
 

Our Guiding Principles:

Twinlineal is a principle which refers to balance. This balance is magnificently demonstrated when male and female energies work in loving partnership with one another. This balanced energy is very powerful and has the remarkable ability to create beneficial things once focused. 

Our trainings and consultation services utilize a holistic approach that helps participants view their lives within the larger context of what’s happening in the world. Many people believe their individual problems are unique and isolated which causes them to feel shame and hopeless. When people view themselves as connected and view their challenges and successes as something larger, they develop a deeper meaning of their lives and their place in it. Our work assists people in shifting from seeing through their "individual problems" to understanding life as woven tapestry of experiences and circumstances. When this shift occurs, previously misunderstood problems often are viewed more deeply and resolve more fully with true understanding.  

Our principles and tools have been successfully tested in the realm of romantic relationships, businesses, and community development. We only promote techniques that have personally worked and transformed our relationship and which have been carefully researched and tested through our personal and professional experiences.

In our work as consultants, educators, and social service providers, we have never seen ill intentions produce happiness and positive outcomes. We advocate that people come to this process with honest and positive motives for change and personal discovery. Honesty about personal motivations begins with the individual. Acknowledge your feelings, no matter what they are. This will free you up to begin the process for achieving the life you want. The same goes for relationships with other people and institutions. Honesty sets the stage for growth and development.

Commitment is key to relationship happiness. Relationships without commitment are destined to fail because without it people have nothing to push them forward together. When we work with people, organizations, and communities, conflict occurs and passion wanes; however, what keeps people moving forward together during trying times is their commitment to each other and a shared vision. Couples need a common goal to commit to and work toward, communities need a shared vision to galvanize around, and organizations need goals and a commitment to rally around We advocate that all relationships must reaffirm their commitment.

Our work focuses on getting in touch with feelings. People spend way too little time focusing on feelings. They walk around angry, sad, sacred and don’t even know it. We strive to create safe spaces where people can courageously explore their feelings and speak about them. We want to move people to a place of being peaceful, joyful and powerful.
