However, in their 3rd edition of Getting the Love You Want (2018), Harville Hendrix and his wife Helen LaKelly Hunt, are giving more and more importance to, what they are calling, the Space Between.

Tools for the Journey: The Enneagram by Crystal Kotow-Sullivan

“Our human’ (egoic) tendency is to want to feel good (and to avoid feeling bad) about ourselves. But without a way to recognizing, accepting and addressing all of who we are,  including the shadow side and difficult parts of our experience, our personal growth stops and we remain asleep to our potential.” Richard Rohr In […]

Children the Challenge by Rudolph Dreikurs

It has been years since I lost or gave away our copy but it was the influential parenting book we used raising our own children. Both Crystal and I were trained as Adlerian Psychologists.

INVICTUS Nelson Mandela and the game that made a nation by John Carlin

I often ask clients who are their heroes.  Who do they look up to? For me, it is Nelson Mandela.

What Conscious Partners Know: 24 and 25

This week, we’re exploring What Conscious Partners Know: 24 and 25 They need to acknowledge each other’s “otherness”, accept each other’s differences, affirm each other’s reality, adore each other’s traits, and advocate for each other’s reality and potential. They must differentiate before they can connect, so they accept each other as an “other” and accept […]

What Conscious Partners Know – 22 and 23

Continuing on with What Conscious Partners Know – Chapters 22 and 23 Connecting is sustained by intentionality, so they speak with a positive tone and use only appreciative or neutral words in all transactions, which helps them feel connected most of the time. The sign of a thriving relationship is how quickly partners engage in […]

Appreciations: Harville and Helen

I have said this before but I think it is worth repeating:  I truly believe the fastest way forward for any couple is to protect the Space-Between them. It is a real energy field, and you can tell, can’t you, when there is tension in the Space-Between? It is either tension-free or it is not. […]
