Synopsis

The Tool Kit No Relationship Should Be Without Long-term happiness in love depends on a couple's ability to repair the inevitable rifts and differences, large and small, that occur in any relationship. Neuroscience suggests that relationship upsets are best mended quickly, or they accumulate in long-term memory, increase reactive communication, and become harder to repair successfully. And good repair takes five minutes or less! This book offers practical tools and suggested scripts for resolving problems and having your needs met. Following its guidance, you can turn difficulties into opportunities to foster love, trust, and thriving intimacy.

About this title

Review:

"Shows us how to approach differences with openhearted listening and vulnerable truth telling...If you read and work with the practices offered here, you have everything you need to create a secure, lasting bond with your partner."-- Jack Canfield, author of "The Success Principles"(TM) "Using the case of a typical couple in trouble as their starting point, John Grey and Susan Campbell walk you through a sequential set of techniques based on neuroscience and attachment theory....Their work here is inventive, inspiring, and well worth the read."-- Stan Tatkin, PsyD, MFT, author of "Wired for Love" "Drs. Campbell and Grey have created a terrific guide for therapists as well as for couples working on their own. So many couples suffer unnecessarily with conflict, and here is an excellent resource for going straight to the vulnerable truth, rather than staying in old reactive patterns. I am recommending it to the couples in my counseling practice." --Linda Bloom, LCSW, coauthor of "101 Things I Wish I Knew When I Got Married"
