Love More, Fight Less: Communication Skills Every Couple Needs: A Relationship Workbook for Couples

This book works well if both parties go in to this with an open mind and no reserve.it helps to fix and rebuild the relationship

This book has given me ideas and suggestions to help make my relationship better has helped me so I highly recommend it

I like the different exercises in the book and the knowledge wedged in between. We all use communication in our day today with coworkers, friends, family, partners, supervisors, and the tools in this book definitely help to strengthen the communication all around. It’s definitely a tool and workbook that anyone can get useful information out of.

My therapist recommended this book to me and as usual she doesn't disappoint. I've been lucky enough to inherit some pretty awful communication and relationship patterns from my parents. I have BPD, I'm autistic, and struggle with other comorbid conditions. Communication is NOT easy for me. Months after reading this book cover to cover I still revert back to it for helpful reminders of things I am working on.What I love about it:The sections of the book are broken down into easily digestible categories for the most common hot topics in relationships.Each category has examples of situations that issue comes up in, examples of bad behaviors that draw out the problems and examples of what to do differently.Each category has work book style prompts that encourage the reader, or the couple, to look deeply inward and break these patternsChanges are difficult but not impossible and some of us weren't modeled the right way to be, so we need clear cut examples. I'd recommend this book to anybody who is interested in changing their relationships for the better.

High school sweethearts trying to make it past the 10 year mark. Both my husband and I are working the book independently. There are very deep topics but everything is laid out so user friendly, almost mapped out, for you. It makes the promts easy to follow and understand. The readings flow really well. We like how it simplifies therapy in an at home approach. With this book you get to do the work! Even on days I feel like I can’t emotionally handle an exercise, there are still so many helpful readings to get me thinking. (The paper is also very soft and nice to write on!)

It was a great workbook, just wish it was more Christian-like

This book is great for couples who are looking to strengthen their relationship with each other and learn insightful information about the way you each grow up and the lessons and teachings you got from your families growing up.

What I liked is that it doesn't require your partner/spouse to participate you can do the exercises on your own and still get a benefit from the book. There are a lot of exercises in this book so be prepared to work a bit, if you are up to it! I can't say how effective it is, as it is likely too soon for it to have impacted my relationship, but I will certainly keep you updated! WML
