Do you want a marriage or partnership that sizzles and inspires others? Do you want to dive into an entirely new level of intimacy? Are you ready to do the work? Like for real? The The Birds and Bees of Joyful Monogamy has arrived in your lap at the perfect time. Sometimes Couples authors get dedicated to one point of view or perspective, and you end up needing to read five to ten books to gather the best material, research and work that exists. Look no further - this book provides a wealth of the predominant research on happy marriages and couples and then puts muscle behind that information with risky, sexy and in-depth exercises designed to transform your relationship.If you think your partner may not join you on the adventure of this hands-on book, no worries. You will create value by doing the work yourself. And, if you have the delight of diving in with a partner who is ready for date nights that deepen your connection and set you up for a lifetime of a passionately alive partnership, then ENJOY Lynne Sheridan has a unique perspective in that she has been an international transformational trainer for 27 years, working with tens of thousands of people in creating what matters, wealth, success and yes, happy relationships. At the same time, she is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, working with clients who really want to do the work to have their partnership thrive. And after conducting Couples Retreats for nearly fifteen years, she has ample material and evidence to back her practices.In the Prologue, Lynne makes it clear that this isn't a self-help book where the author peddles philosophy from a pedestal, she's been in the muck with all of us: "In fact, my third year of marriage was hell. I imagined from the author of a book on relationship bliss, but it's the truth. And the truth sometimes is painful to acknowledge and even harder to admit. But I have also learned that once you acknowledge a painful truth, you can create something else. That year of hell became the compost for the development of incredible growth, over a decade of successful Couples Retreats and scores of couples knowing what's possible in their relationships. It makes sense-put any seed in total shit, and something amazing will blossom out of the dung. It isn't a pretty process, but the yield is amazing. There is no doubt about it; that year of hell was the beginning of the turning point for my marriage and our relationship. I didn't know it then, but it would have made it easier to get through if I would have known that somehow gems would be mined from the minefield that became a lot of our conversations."Dream University founder and best-selling author Marcia Weider says: "Lynne has a way of making complicated material accessible and usable. She also has the unique ability to take what appears to be conflicting or differing perspectives and weave them together, showing patterns and similarities that allow for a deeper understanding of ourselves and significant others.What that means is that not only will you glean fresh insights but also a real understanding of the inner workings of your relationships. And through the powerful exercises in each chapter, you will be able to immediately put in to use what you are learning. With Lynne's guidance, you will have more than a conceptual awareness of the material but also simple practices to live and embody this wisdom."Best-selling author Raymond Aaron says: "Sometimes when it comes to relationship advice, authors have a way of getting caught in one perspective. Lynne has found a way to weave together cutting-edge research on relationships, and bring it to life with experiential processes for you to follow. At the same time, Lynne gives very real examples from others, as well as from her own life, with humbling vulnerability. You can count on Lynne being candid, clear, and saying it like it is, and giving you permission and ways to practice doing the same."
