From New York Times-bestselling authors Dr. John Gottman and Dr. Julie
Schwartz Gottman, a simple yet powerful plan to transform your
relationship in seven days
What makes love last? Why does one couple stay together forever, while
another falls apart? And most importantly, is there a scientific formula
for love?
Drs. John Gottman and Julie Schwartz Gottman are the world's leading
relationship scientists. For the past forty years, they have been
studying love. They've gathered data on over three thousand couples,
looking at everything from their body language to the way they converse
to their stress hormone levels. Their goal: to identify the building
blocks of love.
The Love Prescription distills their life's work into a bite-size,
seven-day action plan with easy, immediately actionable steps. There
will be no grand gestures and no big, hard conversations. There's
nothing to buy or do to prepare. Anyone can do this, from any starting
point.
The seven-day prescription will lead you through these exercises:
Day 1: Make Contact
Day 2: Ask a Big Question
Day 3: Say Thank You
Day 4: Give a Real Compliment
Day 5: Ask for What You Need
Day 6: Reach Out and Touch
Day 7: Declare a Date Night
There is a formula for a good relationship, and this book will show
you how a few small changes can fundamentally transform your
relationship for the better.
