Couples Communication Workbook - 10 Weeks of Short Exercises Both Partners Fill In to Talk Without Fighting, Listen Better, Say Hard Things Kindly, and Repair After an Argument #1012538

You love each other, and you still end up having the same argument, going quiet for two days, or starting a talk that turns into a fight about the talk. Reading another article will not change that. Sitting down together and actually practicing might. Couples Communication Workbook is ten weeks of short, fill-in exercises that both of you complete, one small step at a time: a few minutes alone on the Solo pages, a 20-minute talk on the Together pages, and a tiny daily practice. Pipe tables, prompts and checklists are built right into the pages so you write as you go and see exactly where you disagree and where you already agree. This is not a book about deciding whether to stay or leave, repairing an affair, fixing a dead bedroom, splitting bills or sharing chores, and it is not a substitute for couples counseling. It is a general communication workbook for two people who feel safe with each other and want to talk better. It is not for relationships involving abuse. Inside, you'll learn how to: Grab two pens, find a quiet half hour, and start Week 1 together. The pages do the structuring, so you can spend your energy on each other.
