Companion Guide to Part One of Nurturing Love

Nurturing Love: A Guide to a More Peaceful Marriage is an invitation, inspiration, and guide for the practice of unconditional love. The tools and concepts described in Nurturing Love become useful through practice, so I developed this companion book as a participatory guide. When read in parallel with Part One of Nurturing Love, each chapter of this guidebook invites you to engage in activities that augment the original teachings and to note your experiences, with the goal that together, the two books will better meet your needs.

Contents include:

Chapter 1: Toward Loving-Kindness

Chapter 2: Laying the Foundation

Chapter 3: Commitment to your Marriage

Chapter 4: Our Hidden Treasure

Chapter 5: A Subtle Shift

Appendices:
