Book Description

June 2003
With the pioneering classic Passionate Marriage (over 500,000 copies sold) and his current bestseller Resurrecting Sex, Dr. David Schnarch has helped thousands take their relationships to new and lasting heights of love and intimacy — in many cases when divorce seemed the only option. From his unique perspective, sexual difficulty and other common problems are not a sign of weakness, but rather the hallmark of the crucial work of all emotionally committed relationships. Dr. Schnarch’s first major release on audio, Secrets of a Passionate Marriage moves beyond traditional sex therapy approaches that work "a little," and provides the groundwork for a way of relating to oneself and one’s partner that ensures real improvement over a lifetime. Combining humor with his decades of expertise, Dr. Schnarch offers listeners insights into: emotional gridlock — why this critical phase is necessary for the healthy evolution of all relationships, how to "self-soothe" your anxieties to open to the full range of human eroticism, the three psychological dimensions of sex — how to make an ally out of what you’re really thinking during sex, and much more.

Designed to give listeners the courage to confront themselves and their partners with integrity and compassion, Secrets of a Passionate Marriage is sure to bring what Dr. Schnarch calls "electric sex" along with renewed commitment to the relationships of all who hear it.

Note: Portions of this recording contain explicit sexual language.

From the Publisher

Join marriage counselor and psychotherapist David Schnarch on a journey towards creating a more intimate, passionate, loving relationship with your partner. Emotionally committed relationships are a "people growing" process, he says, where inevitable sexual boredom, lack of passion, and communication difficulties serve as the mechanisms for adult development.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic, September 10, 2006
By 
D. Pascual (Menlo Park, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As a graduate student in psychology this was required reading for one of my classes. This book is nothing short of exquisite. Schnarch writes from a very authentic 'been there' place which draws the reader in like magnet. Lots of very good case studies which beautifully integrate the theoretical material. Schnarch's lense is a new and refreshing integration of couples & sex therapy (who ever thought of separating the two anyway??). It focuses on differentiation rather than fusion. This is a page-turner that organically induces self-reflection inspired by the very authenticity of it's author.

A fascinating piece of literature.

5.0 out of 5 stars May not save my marriage, but it has saved ME, February 28, 2007
By 
E. L. Leavell (Gilroy, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I was looking for a miracle and I found it, although it may not be able to save my marriage that is no fault of the book. This book taught me so much about ME that even though my husband is still having difficulty "differentiating". I am much happier than I have ever been in a relationship!

Get one for yourself and one for your significant other!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, concise, helpful! Has made all the difference!, December 17, 2007
The information that Dr. Schnarch has provided in this work is extremely helpful in understanding the dynamics involved in having a much more passionate relationship. It was recommended to me off of a dating website by an e-mail friend. I can never thank him enough!
