Lasting Love The Five Secrets of Growing a Vital, Conscious Relationship

"I think of Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks as America's model couple. InLasting Love, they model courage as they demonstrate how to remove the barriers that keep us from lasting love. More than any other self-help book I've seen, this one clearly points the way to satisfying relationships."--Jon Carlson, Psy.D., Ed.D., ABPP, Distinguished Professor, Governors State University, Editor ofThe Intimate Couple Looking at our families, friends, and communities, it's hard to find very many people in long-term relationships who are both thriving as creative individuals and growing closer as lovers at the same time. That's because the norm in these relationships tends toward comfort and compromise. Gay and Kathlyn Hendricks want to dispel that norm. In addition to their work with thousands of couples, they are first and foremost their own best clients. Many of their breakthroughs were created "the hard way," by many trials and many errors, so they know their techniques work. Lasting Loveis their most comprehensive program, and at the same time their simplest. It employs communication tools that anyone can use to transform their relationships. Even if the surface conflict concerns sex or money, the real source of the problem is usually rooted in one or more deeper issues. If we address these issues with five simple techniques, we can generate passion and harmony, even if these qualities have been absent in our relationship for years. In addition to action plans, the Hendricks have included creative activities they've employed in their seminars to help put theLasting Loveprogram to work in daily interactions. As a bonus, they've added Relationship E.R., drawn from the front lines of real life.
