The Mindful Marriage

Create Your Best Relationship Through Understanding and Managing Yourself

De: Ron L. Deal MMFT, Nan Deal BSE, Terry Hargrave PhD - foreword, Sharon Hargrave MA - foreword

Narrado por: Pete Straub

Backed by neuroscience and biblical principles, this book delivers a therapeutic model for couples who want to stop the painful patterns that harm their marriage so that they can build a stronger connection.

When Ron and Nan Deal suffered the devastating loss of their child, their marriage was nearly shattered by their destructive cycles. At wits' end, they sought the help of pioneering therapists Dr. Terry Hargrave and Sharon Hargrave, LMFT, whose transformational Restoration Therapy has helped millions through the practice of emotional mindfulness.

Now, the Deals and Hargraves introduce listeners to this proven method that challenges popular beliefs about how relationships work. They show listeners how to better understand themselves in times of emotional distress, so that they can self-regulate. Christian listeners will especially appreciate the balance of scientifically proven methods along with Scripturally sound teaching, resulting in more loving, faithful marital relationships.

The Mindful Marriage is therapy in a book

Ron Deal has paved the way to connection and emotional intimacy for couples in repetitive negative relating cycles. The Mindful Marriage helps map the emotions in your marriage and helps heal the hurts. The exercises will take some work and thought, and as a marriage and family therapist I recognize the value of these worksheets.

I highly recommend The Mindful Marriage, if a couple is up to the task and wants help, this is the book to start with.

Insightful, practical, and makes good sense!.👍😁

Loved it! ..🙏👍
Great narrator!..😎👍
Over all, very practical, and made a lot of sense! ..🙏👍
Self Regulation, and communication with your spouse and even other relationships, in time, I feel could be very beneficial, if they are open to it!? ..🤔
But even if they aren't, you can still be at peace with yourself, and God, knowing that it's not other people that can give us what we long for, ..it's God and God alone!.🙏👍
He made us, and knows us even better than we can ever know our selves! . 🤔👍
So I choose to allow Him to mold and make me into the person He has chosen for me to be, and to be the most useful conduit I can be, for all those that don't know Him curently, and to possiblely come to know Him because, or in spite of the experiences in this life, and how I have chosen to process them, with Humility and Grace, because of what Jesus has done for me! ..🙏👍
One Day at a time Sweet Jesus, and applying the 4 steps of self regulation! ..🙏👍..Time and Application will tell all things! ..🙏👍
May God Bless all of you for sharing your hearts and struggles, with all those who will dare to listen, and or read, and Apply the 4 main principles laid out in this book, as we eventually Learn to Self Regulate, and became Transformed, by the Renewing of our minds, that we may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable, and perfect...in His eyes!..🙏👍

The Mindful Marriage, 2 thumbs up!...🙏👍👍😁

RT is so valuable

This book was recommended to me by my counselor Gil Stuart who applies restoration therapy with his patients. And I have been going through with him for a while now. Also I believe he’s friends with the author. After listening to this book, I found myself rewinding it, playing it over and reviewing the tools and directives. The author gives for the pain and peace cycle. It’s a must have and very revolutionary to the common modalities out there with conflict management. For anyone who has been married, or currently married and has had one day or more of conflict in your marriage this is your new healing path going forward 🙏🏻
