Download or read book The Wholehearted Marriage written by Greg Smalley and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-06-02 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Wholehearted Marriage offers practical tools for helping couples keep a passionate connection with one another and understand the role their hearts play in their lives. Drs. Smalley and Stoever maintain that circumstances, such as busy lifestyles, differences between spouses, personal baggage, the loss of a loved one, childhood trauma, etc., trigger reactions that condition us to close up our hearts for protection, blocking the flow of love. A disengaged, protected heart makes it impossible to experience an intimate, connected marriage. As a result, couples drift apart, trying to find some version of contentment, or they give up altogether and look for love somewhere else. Through their experiences in marriage counseling, Drs. Smalley and Stoever discovered that the commonly heard phrase "I don't love him/her anymore" is merely a camouflaged misunderstanding about what true love is and God's design for it. They affirm that love is more than just a feeling, and that to have true, lasting intimacy, couples need to learn to love wholeheartedly.

Download or read book Pride and a Daily Marathon written by Jonathan Cole and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 1995-07-11 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the age of 19, Ian Waterman was suddenly struck down at work by a rare neurological illness that deprived him of all sensation below the neck. He fell on the floor in a heap, unable to stand or control his limbs, having lost the sense of joint position and proprioception, of that "sixth sense" of his body in space, which we all take for granted. After months in a neurological ward he was judged incurable and condemned to a life of wheelchair dependence. This is the first U.S. publication of a remarkable book by his physician, Jonathan Cole. It tells the compelling story, including a clear clinical description of a rare condition, of how Waterman reclaimed a life of full mobility against all expectations, by mental effort and sheer courage. Cole describes how Waterman gradually adapted to his strange condition. As the doctors had predicted, there was no neurological recovery. He had to monitor every movement by sight to work out where his limbs were, since he had no feedback from his peripheral nerves. But with astonishing persistence Waterman developed elaborate tricks and strategies to control his movements, enabling him to cope not only with the day-to-day problems of living, but even with the challenges of work, love, and marriage.

Download or read book Exaholics written by Lisa Marie Bobby and published by Union Square & Co.. This book was released on 2016-02-10 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Severing a cherished relationship is one of the most painful experiences in life—and cutting those emotional ties to a loved one can feel almost like ending an addiction. Up till now, people recovering from other problems were able to get real help—like AA and rehab—while those struggling in the aftermath of traumatic breaks dealt with platitudes and friends insisting they should "get over it already." But now Exaholics Anonymous treats getting over an ex like kicking a chemical habit. Written by counselor and therapist Dr. Lisa Bobby, Exaholics offers meaningful support and advice to anyone trapped in the obsessive pain of a broken, or dying, attachment. She helps the brokenhearted heal, showing them, on a deep level, how to develop a conceptual framework for their experience, understand the emotional processes at work inside themselves, find the path to recovery, and free themselves of shame, injured ego, and remorse. In-depth case studies of others' journeys will illuminate the way to future happiness.

Book excerpt: When the Vow Breaks: A Journey from Hurt to Healing will help singles, separated, dating, engaged, and married couples build better relationships that will enrich their lives. This book is a complete seven-hour guide for building relationships. This book can also be used in churches as a Bible study tool or a small group setting. We have been married thirty years. We are passionate, gifted, and licensed to serve. We work with individuals, groups, and married couples. Our platforms include weekly radio and television shows. Our vision is to educate, energize, and empower through teaching, mentoring, and coaching programs. Our method includes relationships and character-building books, conferences, seminars, workshops, and couples retreats. This seven-hour step by step guide is the design to ignite the power within you by empowering you to build better relationships. Marriage is a shared commitment with shared responsibilities. We found that seven shares were the glue that kept us together over thirty years. These are shared compatibility, shared communication, shared faith, shared commitment, shared prayer, shared intimacy, and shared investment, which will be a benefit in shared returns. This information is too valuable to keep to ourselves. We're obligated to share this with you so that your relationships and marriages will be successful. There are other areas that are just as important, but over the past thirty years of marriage, these seven were the most significant for us! Why This Book? Because we have both lost a lot of time and energy in relationships that weren't compatible. When a relationship doesn't have any shared compatibilities, the relationship loses. Its purpose for being becomes strained when something is strained, and it loses its original form and becomes useless. What can you expect? You can expect to discover the seven shares with the proper applications of building great relationships. These seven are the cornerstones, regardless of whether it's a romantic relationship or a friendship.

Their collective message: anyone can run a marathon; everyone should. It will change your life forever.
