The Dance of Connection
by Harriet Lerner
In her most profound book yet, Dr. Harriet Lerner takes us beyond The Dance of Anger and shows us how to "find our voice" with the people who matter the most. With wit and wisdom, Lerner shows us how to "set things right" and heal the most painful disconnections. The Dance of Connection tackles the most difficult problems we face with the people who hurt us: What is the "two step" that will transform any conversation? How do we find our voice when we are rejected or cut off? And why won't the person who has harmed us apologize? How do we take a conversation to the next level when we feel desperate? What positive steps can we take when the other person is wearing us down with criticism, negativity, excuses, demands, or irresponsible behavior? How do we put an insensitive parent on the hot seat? Lerner reveals a startling new definition of what it means to have an "authentic voice" -- one that runs counter to the automatic ways we try to speak our truths. The Dance of Connection goes beyond "communication techniques" to provide bold and innovative "voice lessons." Lerner tells us when to lighten up and let things go, and when we need to take specific steps to heal betrayals, inequalities, and broken connections, Whether we're hurting in marriage, family, or friendship, we learn how to speak with honor and personal integrity even when the other person behaves badly -- or won't talk at all. Our capacity for creativity, vitality, and joy depend on connecting well with the key people in our lives. Lerner teaches us how to navigate our most difficult relationships with integrity, courage, and joyous conviction.
The Conscious Heart
by Gay Hendricks
One of the most celebrated books on relationships in the past decade, Conscious Loving has been incorporated into wedding ceremonies and taught in college courses, as well as becoming an intimate guidebook for thousands of couples. Now, building on the psychological insights of their earlier work, Kathlyn and Gay Hendricks bring a new level of spiritual knowledge to the point-blank world of relationship life.At the core of their new book are seven soul-commitments that change relationships from the inside out--basic shifts of attitude and intention that can transform everything from a couple's fundamental trust in one another to the petty details of day-to-day life. These soul commitments enable us to use conflict to illuminate the fears that keep us stuck and hidden from our true nature. They also work to enhance authenticity, equality and appreciation in every aspect of our partnership.The Hendrickses outline these spiritual principles with eloquent clarity, and they also show them in action in numerous illuminating examples--including their own mid-life marital crisis and in dealing with the very material world of money. No other relationship book is at once so on-target practical and so large in its claims for the ultimate power of the conscious heart.
What Does She Want from Me, Anyway?
by Gregg Lewis
Holly Faith Phillips has seen men transformed before her very eyes, starting with her own husband, Randy. She has seen marriages on the brink of divorce saved. She has seen outwardly appearing good marriages made genuine, and truly good marriages made great. Now, in What Does She Want from Me, Anyway?,she speaks to men on behalf of their wives and the other women in their lives in order to help them better understand the great need for honest but respectful communication in their relationships. With love and leadership, she explores those questions men are asking, not the questions women think they should be asking, such as can I conquer the fears that have kept me silent? and do I get her to respect me? Written with the same dynamic energy that has made its author one of the Promise Keepers most motivational speakers, this invaluable volume promises to be a godsend for both men and women everywhere.
