Want to improve your relationship with that special someone?

Worried that you might inadvertently sabotage your next relationship?

John Gottman, author of "The Relationship Cure" and his colleagues found that there are certain behaviors that are key indicators of a struggling marriage.  

We accompany couples, using the program outlined in this book, in healing wounds and rebuilding their happy marriage.  

 

 

This book will show you five steps you can take to master the fundamental unit of emotional communication and make your relationships work:

1. Analyze the way you "bid" and the way you respond to others’ bids.
2. Discover how your brain’s emotional command systems affect your bidding process.
3. Examine how your emotional heritage impacts your ability to connect with others and your style of bidding.
4. Develop your emotional communication skills.
5. Find shared meaning with others.

A bid can be a question, a gesture, a look, a touch—any single expression that says, “I want to feel connected to you.”   A response to a bid is just that—a positive or negative answer to somebody’s request for emotional connection.
