Can't come to Los Angeles workshop?   Then, get the Home Study Course hard copy of the workshop manual.   It contains all of the major concepts, agreements and excercises used in the seminar.  Extremely clear and practical relationship advice to use before going to the expense of professional marriage counseling. Make the 5 Commitments out loud with your partner, and start enjoying the peace that comes with some structure and mutually agreed upon guidelines about speaking and listening. 

    The book contains the Five Agreements made out loud with your partner and the simulation exercises to train you how to: Respond to the strong emotions of your partner in three steps; AND how to express yourself most constructively.

Discover:

- The most powerful 3-step technique for responding to someone else's anger.   Understand why your partner cannot forgive you yet.   The method is so powerful, that your partner now has ears open to listening to your point of view and to what you want him, or her to understand.

- That change is possible! And that change can 'begin with me.'

- The three questions to ask yourself, which will help you decide, "Should I stay or should I leave?"

    Simple, direct and clear guidelines, tools,methods and structure that couples can agree on before arguing gets out of control. And, instruction about exactly what to do, and specifically what to say, after a fight. 

     Imagine breathing that exhale of RELIEF that comes with the first time that you and your partner use the agreements to go down a different path.  Instead of escalating arguing, one of you says one sentence, and both of you stop fighting on a dime, and go into some structured dialogue later that helps you understand each other better!

You don't go to the doctor every time you have a sniffle. If you can't get relief over a few days with over the counter remedies, then you go the medical doctor.

     Just think of the RealHope.com seminar and Home Study Course as your 'over the counter' help for your relationship problems.  If this low cost home study remedy does not work, then by all means call a marriage therapist or counselor.
