Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
We all want to love and be loved unconditionally--unfortunately patterns and past experiences often put us in a position where we need to feel guarded or distant. This distance keeps us from feeling true emotional intimacy with our partners, and all aspects of our relationships suffer as a result. The Seven Secrets of Healthy, Happy Relationships seeks to change that by providing a path by which you can recover from the past, enjoy the present, and fight your fears for the future before they have a chance to take root in your relationships. Ruiz and Amara teach that unconditional love is like a river: when you love someone based on conditions, the river gets dammed and stagnant, but unconditional love flows through all aspects of your relationship and your life.
By undamming the river of unconditional love between you and your partner, you will create a strong, caring relationship by learning to:
- Allow yourself to experience emotional intimacy, even if you've been hurt in the past
- Heal past hurts and traumas that are holding you back from your current relationship
- Be in the present in your relationship, rather than living from the past or in the future
Synopsis
Relationships: An Integral Part of the Human Experience
As humans, most of us yearn for fulfilling relationships. They provide unlimited ways for us to learn, grow, thrive, and have fun
Yet, as we know, relationships aren't always a bed of roses--especially romantic ones. They don't make themselves, nor do they continue happily on autopilot once they begin.
In this one-of-a-kind book, bestselling authors don Miguel Ruiz, Jr. and HeatherAsh Amara share their seven secrets to healthy, happy relationships:
- Commitment
- Freedom
- Awareness
- Healing
- Joy
- Communication
- Release
Understanding and enacting these principles can help you at any stage in your intimate partnering, whether you've been with someone for many years or are currently single and want to prepare for a relationship.
The authors make clear that the principles in this book aren't secrets because they are hidden away, but are more akin to undiscovered focal points that can lead to deeper, more meaningful connections.
Part of the secret, as you will see, is in the art of putting these ideas into practice day after day and year after year.
