HARVILLE HENDRIX

From the New York Times bestselling author of Getting the Love You Want and Keeping the Love You Find comes illuminating and inspiring advice on one of the most complicated issues facing couples today: receiving love. Many people know how to give love, but many more undermine their relationships by never having learned how to accept it. We don't always realize the ways in which we reject appreciation, affection, help, and guidance from our romantic partners. According to Hendrix and Hunt, until we are able to understand the meaning behind our behavior, our relationships stand to suffer. Receiving Love prompts questions such as: -Are you reluctant to tell your partner what you really want or need? -When you do get what you've asked for, do you still feel dissatisfied? -Is it difficult for you to accept kind gestures, gifts, or compliments from your partner? With Receiving Love, you can learn how to break the shackles of self-rejection and embrace real intimacy. Drawing on their renowned expertise, the wide clinical experience of Imago therapists, and their own personal experience as a married couple, the authors offer detailed, sensitive advice on how to turn a relationship between two well-meaning yet misunderstood individuals into a true, everlasting partnership.

De fleste mennesker ønsker et velfungerende parforhold, men det er ikke alle, der ved, hvad det kræver, eller er villige til at yde det, der skal til. Harville Hendrix er en af USA´s førende parterapeuter, og hans teori er, at vi vælger vores partner ud fra en række ”gamle” følelsesmønstre og -behov. Det giver både muligheden for at finde lykken og for at få traumer og problemer op til overfladen og er dermed en enestående chance for udvikling og vejen til et levende og harmonisk samliv. Hendrix kommer ikke med nemme løsninger, men fremstiller varmt og nøgternt kærligheden mellem mand og kvinde og giver en række konstruktive forslag til at få det bedre med hinanden. »Denne bog er en perle, der ikke forfalder til enfaktorforklaringer, men betragter problemerne ud fra deres kompleksitet... man fornemmer at forfatteren har stor indsigt i parforholdets dynamik.« - Vendsyssel Tidende
