Ten Commandments for Couples for Every Aspect of Your Relationship Journey
by Jeffrey K. Zeig
Type: Softcover
Need some good advice? Have questions about your marriage, dating, children, money, sex, even cheating, or divorce? It’s all covered here.
Seventy psychologists, therapists and counselors who regularly help couples with their relationship issues were asked to create ten basic rules that every couple needs.
Each set of “commandments” deals with something essential, from general areas such as making your relationship last or maintaining connection to more specific challenges like rekindling passion, dealing with infertility, or financial issues. The “commandments” have been collected from a remarkable panel of exemplary experts who work extensively in relationship counseling and relationship improvement. In addition, each contributor had no knowledge of what the others had written. What distinguishes this book from others is that the inspirations are presented as easy to reflect upon “sound bites.” Once digested, they can be internalized as “commandments,” commandments that will enrich your primary relationships.
Contributors include: John Gottman & Julie Gottman, Harville Hendrix, & Helen LaKelly-Hunt, Harriet Lerner, Pat Love, Terry Real, Marty Klein, Cloé Madanes, Judith Beck, Helen Fisher, Lisa Firestone, Sue Johnson, Bill O’Hanlon, Michele Weiner-Davis, Claudia Black, Jon Carlson, Scott Miller, Reid Wilson, Daniel Amen, Janet Abrams Spring, Phillip Zimbardo —And more, covering all topics with over 80 sets of commandments.
Highly readable, practical and profound, this book invites you to sit down with the finest minds in couples therapy. And when it comes to the most important aspect of life — the intimate relationship at its center — who doesn’t need some good advice now and then?
