Download or read book Monogamy written by Marianne Brandon Ph.D and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-08-19 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text provides a groundbreaking look at sexual instincts and offers a clinical psychologist's and sex therapist's insights and solutions to the challenges of monogamous relationships. Monogamous relationships are firmly embedded in the framework of our society, and yet the divorce rate and common failures of intimacy in long-term relationships challenges the efficacy of this paradigm. Oddly, the concept of monogamy has been virtually ignored by mental health professionals, while anthropologists, sociologists, biologists, and zoologists have researched and explored the topic. Monogamy: The Untold Story presents not only the scientific research about the challenges of monogamy, but also the practical solutions to overcome them. In part one, the author explores sexual instincts and monogamy from an anthropological, biological, psychological, and social perspective. Part two offers men and women a step-by-step guide to enhancing passion and strengthening their intimate bond by capitalizing on their natural sexual instincts.

Download or read book The New Monogamy written by Tammy Nelson and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2013-01-02 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has their own concept of what “monogamy” means—and most people assume their partners and spouses are on the same page. Couples may assume that they are monogamous, but never discuss exactly what the monogamy agreement means to them. What happens when this implicit agreement is broken? After infidelity, relationships can become strained as both partners lose trust and faith in each other. The New Monogamy offers a way out of these difficulties for couples struggling to stay together after infidelity. Couples make these implicit assumptions and agreements explicit so that each partner knows exactly what is expected of them in the future and what they can expect from their partner. Author Tammy Nelson helps couples regain trust, romance, and intimacy after infidelity by redefining the monogamy contract. The new monogamy contract is an explicit relationship agreement created after the affair that allows each partner to openly, honestly, and safely share their desires, expectations, and limitations. This agreement does not create an open marriage, but rather, an open conversation wherein each partner can have a say in setting the ground rules for their relationship. The book first helps couples rebuild trust after the affair, then engages in a series of Imago dialogues based on questions about what each partner really wants in the relationship, not what you think you should want or what a partner wants you to want. The New Monogamy includes questionnaires, checklists, and candid questions for partners to ask that help welcome complete honesty and trust back into the relationship. Then, the book helps couples make an erotic recovery from infidelity by addressing erotic problems that may surface and offers advice for helping couples return to desiring and trusting one another. After an affair, it’s impossible to go back to the way the relationship was before, but this book offers the chance for a new beginning.

Book Synopsis The Mask of Masculinity by : Lewis Howes
Download or read book The Mask of Masculinity written by Lewis Howes and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At 30 years old, Lewis Howes was outwardly thriving but unfulfilled inside. He was a successful athlete and businessman, achieving goals beyond his wildest dreams, but he felt empty, angry, frustrated, and always chasing something that was never enough. His whole identity had been built on misguided beliefs about what "masculinity" was. Howes began a personal journey to find inner peace and to uncover the many masks that men – young and old – wear. In The Mask of Masculinity, Howes exposes the ultimate emptiness of the Material Mask, the man who chases wealth above all things; the cowering vulnerability that hides behind the Joker and Stoic Masks of men who never show real emotion; and the destructiveness of the Invincible and Aggressive Masks worn by men who take insane risks or can never back down from a fight. He teaches men how to break through the walls that hold them back and shows women how they can better understand the men in their lives. It's not easy, but if you want to love, be loved and live a great life, then it's an odyssey of self-discovery that all modern men must make. This book is a must-read for every man – and for every woman who loves a man.
Download or read book Infidelity written by Paul R. Peluso and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-06-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When one partner in a relationship is unfaithful to the other, it takes a lot of work by both parties involved to salvage the relationship. In today’s therapy-friendly climate, marriage/couples counseling is often a part of that rebuilding process. Many couples seek out professional therapy after an affair is out in the open, but often the act of infidelity is revealed while uncovering and discussing unrelated issues for which the couple is in counseling. And yet, amazingly, as common as this complex and difficult topic arises in therapy, there is relatively little professional literature devoted to understanding and "treating" infidelity. In this volume, Paul Peluso has assembled a truly impressive list of contributors from a range of disciplines and backgrounds, including marital therapy, family therapy, evolutionary psychology, marriage research, and cyberstudies, with the aim of filling this void.

Book Synopsis Wedding Toasts I'll Never Give by : Ada Calhoun
Download or read book Wedding Toasts I'll Never Give written by Ada Calhoun and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2017-05-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven essays celebrating the beauty of the imperfect marriage. We hear plenty about whether or not to get married, but much less about what it takes to stay married. Clichés around marriage—eternal bliss, domestic harmony, soul mates—leave out the real stuff. After marriage you may still want to sleep with other people. Sometimes your partner will bore the hell out of you. And when stuck paying for your spouse’s mistakes, you might miss being single. In Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give, Ada Calhoun presents an unflinching but also loving portrait of her own marriage, opening a long-overdue conversation about the institution as it truly is: not the happy ending of a love story or a relic doomed by high divorce rates, but the beginning of a challenging new chapter of which “the first twenty years are the hardest.” Calhoun’s funny, poignant personal essays explore the bedrooms of modern coupledom for a nuanced discussion of infidelity, existential anxiety, and the many other obstacles to staying together. Both realistic and openhearted, Wedding Toasts I’ll Never Give offers a refreshing new way to think about marriage as a brave, tough, creative decision to stay with another person for the rest of your life. “What a burden,” Calhoun calls marriage, “and what a gift.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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."
