Delving into ‘The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work’ by John Gottman has been an enlightening journey for my partner and me. Having been together for several years, we found ourselves facing common challenges in our relationship that seemed to escalate rather than resolve. This book came at a perfect time, offering us a much-needed guide to navigate through our difficulties.
Gottman’s approach is both straightforward and profound, making it accessible for couples at various stages of their relationship. The seven principles outlined in the book provide a solid foundation for understanding and improving our communication, conflict resolution, and intimacy. Each principle is presented clearly and backed by compelling research from the Gottman Institute.
One particularly impactful principle for us was the idea of ‘Turn Towards Each Other.’ By focusing on the little things and acknowledging each other’s feelings, we’ve discovered a renewed appreciation and closeness in our relationship. The exercises provided at the end of each chapter have been instrumental in putting these principles into practice.
However, it’s important to note that this book is not a quick fix for relationship issues. The improvements come from consistent effort and practice. It requires both partners to be fully invested and committed to applying the principles in their daily lives. But if you’re willing to invest time and energy into your relationship, ‘The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work’ can help lead you towards a more harmonious and lasting partnership.
