There is no better opportunity than our love relationship for us to be fully ourselves. Ironically, since our partner is so central to our life, his or her validation becomes critical and we are inclined to hide our true self. We become guarded from the most important person in our lives. The soul-baring intimacy and willingness to know and be known that made the beginning of love so passionate and exciting becomes simply functional. It is replaced with feelings of apprehension and guardedness. Over time we move from a passionate open relationship to one that is quietly cautious. It may work as a partnership, but the spark of the early years is down to embers, at best. You may wonder if it is possible to regain genuine connection. Dr. Joel Block, a psychologist specializing in work with couples for many years provides an effi cient, clinically tested program that he has used successfully with couples in his practice. It is not about trying to change each other, which is a waste of time. It is about understanding each other and ourselves at a deeper level than ever before. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>"Dr. Block helps us to navigate through relationship issues that have confused us from the beginning of time." </em><strong>--Karen Cooper, PsyD, clinical psychologist</strong></p><p> </p><p>"We were one of those couples that played it safe, speaking only about safe subjects.

Run, don't walk to your book seller and get a copy today, it will change your life." <strong>--Douglas A. Weiss, author of <em>Life, Love and Internet Dating</em></strong></p><p> </p><p>"My husband and I had grown apart when we reached out to Dr. Block and were introduced to <em>The 15-Minute Relationship Fix</em>.

Following the guide brought us back to our early days of emotional intimacy." <strong>--Joan and Eric, together 23 years</strong></p><p> </p><p> </p><br>
