Rather than learning HOW to love, perhaps the greatest test of an intimate relationship is learning to receive love. Such is the teaching of the bestselling author/relationship therapist team, Harville Hendrix and Helen LaKelly Hunt. In their newest book, they argue that many of us have trouble accepting and integrating the affection and appreciation we so deeply desire. We tell ourselves that we're not getting what we want and need because other people are either not loving us enough or not loving us in the right way. But the truth is that we are loved, we just don't see it. Instead we brush away the compliments and praise, and we don't even know we are doing it. In RECEIVING LOVE, the focus is on how this phenomenon operates in intimate relationships, shaping conflicts and disappointments, and on the steps needed to dissolve the barriers to enable us to open our hearts to love. Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - essential reading for ALL couples I think this is essential reading for reflection for ALL couples whether they have been married one day or eighty years Rating: - Harville Hendrix is an awesome teacher!! The book was received in a timely manner and the condition was as promised. Have just finished reading "Getting the Love you Want" by the same author. He has the best way of presenting & teaching that I've ever experienced with a writer on this subject matter. And, wonderful exercises are included at the end to enable readers to practice application of what they've just read. Very helpful. Rating: - Receiving Love A very interesting and insightful book.

God can be more easily found in human love than in the human mind - from the Brothers Karamazov Ongoing interaction with a long-term partner can be an agent of transformation more powerful than any other. We have come to believe that it is the clearest way for transformation to occur. Sooner or later in every relationship the initial attraction turns into a power struggle as couples ...

It was one of the most challenging and difficult weekend experiences of my life! The relationship did not last, having NOTHING to do with the workshop (it was hanging by threads before). Years later, a good friend who is a therapist, recommended Receiving Love. I felt quite resistant, based on my limited experience, however, since I know many couples who have benefitted from Harville's work, ... Read More Rating: - It's Not So Hard to Say "I Love You" Back. According to these PhD authors, it is easier to give love than to receive it. It goes back to our childhoods when a parent failed to nurture and rejected the person who depended on him for her very life. When a mother is absent, and a mean uncaring father ignores the daughter, she ends up with a complex which clearly says "Nobody can love me, so why try." When we get grown, even married to a noncaring, sick man, it is impossible to get the love we want and need. Sometimes, you just have to ...
