Marital research dispels all doubt: couples who communicate effectively consistently report greater marital satisfaction. These couples are healthier and happier, and they positively influence other couples. Consequently, these couples may also live longer.
Couples with poor communication are often caught in a vicious cycle where poor communication contributes to marital dissatisfaction, which in turn further hinders the ability to successfully communicate. The cycle, when not corrected, continues to degrade the relationship.
Effective communication is the ability to have a common understanding between the speaker and listener as to what the speaker intends to communicate. This is more natural for children than it is for adults. Often as adults, we are unaware of the behaviors that hinder effective communication. The Marriage Mirror identifies and reinforces the things you are doing well. It also pinpoints your āblind spotsā that hinder communication and provides the methodologies you can use to change your communication for the better.
You will have the ability to develop a Personal Action Plan that will lead you through a proven process to communication success. As you conduct your experiment with The Marriage MirrorĀ®, it is our prayer that you will enjoy the process and the positive results.
