Product Description

For many couples, the romantic bliss of a relationship's early stages is followed by a bumpy road. This scenario can be avoided with a different approach: living from the heart. Joyce and Barry Vissell have spent 35 years of marriage learning from their relationship. They show in this guide how to eliminate fear, how to heal blocked sexuality, how to say no to the one you love, and how every couple can learn from jealousy.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the Vissells books, reaching deeper within., May 31, 1999

By	Wendy J Phillips (Lopez Island, lWashington) - See all my reviews

Because this book is about relationships, people assume it is for couples. All of life is relationship. This is an intimate revelation of how the Vissells have worked within the framework of their own relationship to grow and heal the space that seperates and causes pain in all relationshops, weather it be a man and wife or parent and child or a soul with self. It is daring and tender and full of hope and joy. I highly recommend it if you choose to go deep and look in the mirror. A challenge to love self, in order to love others, and the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Praise for the Vissell's, June 11, 2000

By A Customer

I found this book to be very perceptive & insightful. The Vissells are very knowledgeable about the matters of the heart & relationships. While reading this book, my partner and I fully discussed each chapter, and agreed that soul mirroring is a benefit to every relationship.

5.0 out of 5 stars Learning from those who have a successful result, February 23, 2006

Praise for the Vissells for sharing their recipes for the road of love and marriage. In a market full of divorced people giving advice on an area they have failed in .... this book is welcome wisdom from a couple who have navigated the stages of a committed permanent relationship.
