<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"From the founder and CEO of YourTango, the wildly popular love and relationship website, comes a refreshing, new approach to finding love and making it last. With a feminist sensibility and an engaging, energetic voice, Radical Acceptance shows how loving someone without judgment is the ultimate gift you can give to them--and to yourself. Are you in love with the man beside you now or with the man you wish he could one day be? What if you were able to let go of your itch to fix, judge, improve, control, or even nag your partner? There is tremendous empowerment and liberation that comes from loving someone--and being loved--unconditionally. This is called Radical Acceptance. Whether you're looking for Mr. Right or learning how to build a life with him, this is your powerful five-step guide to creating a happy, lasting relationship. It's easy to love the loveable parts of your partner. He's funny, charming, smart, successful, and wonderful. Except for when he's not, i.e. when he is late, crabby, disheveled, and has just loaded the dishwasher incorrectly--again. Through Radical Acceptance, you'll learn how to distinguish between challenges and deal-breakers in a relationship; improve communication; build empathy; manage conflict; embrace vulnerability; and truly appreciate your significant other. You'll also discover that the things about your partner that you struggle with are often your own vulnerabilities and hang ups being mirrored back at you, which in turn offers you a powerful means to grow, evolve, and truly love yourself. Featuring compelling stories from real-life couples and input from the foremost researchers and thought leaders in the fields of health, sexuality, brain science, psychotherapy, and neurobiology, Radical Acceptance explains how embracing your partner for exactly who he is will bring you a more harmonious relationship, while also providing an unexpected path to your own personal transformation"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A Nautilus Better Books for A Better World Silver Medalist</b> <p/> <b>"</b><b>If you're at the end of your relationship rope, reach for <i>Radical Acceptance</i>." --<i>Elle</i></b> <p/> <b>In this "warm, honest approach to prioritizing your partner and creating true happiness in your relationship" (John Gray, PhD, author <i>of Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus</i>), the founder and CEO of YourTango, the #1 online destination for relationships, with fifteen-million monthly visitors, provides a refreshing new approach to romantic partnerships, grounded in the importance of unconditional love.</b> <p/>Loving the lovable parts of your partner is easy. He's funny, charming, smart, successful, and kind. He's perfect. Except for when he is not. Like when he is late. Or short-tempered. Or lazy. Or he's incorrectly loaded the dishwasher (again). Maybe he feels like the most frustrating person on the planet. Or maybe you're simply not feeling heard or seen. Or loved enough. <p/> It's these proverbial unlovable parts that make loving <i>all </i>of him so tough. But imagine if you let go of your itch to fix, judge, improve, or control your partner. Imagine if you replaced judgement with compassion and empathy. Tremendous empowerment and liberation come from loving someone--and being loved--for who we really are. This practice is called Radical Acceptance. Whether you're looking for Mr. Right or are already with him, this is your powerful five-step guide to attaining life's ultimate prize: unconditional love. <p/> You'll learn how to increase your emotional resilience, feel more confident, determine whether you're settling, quiet those doubt-filled voices in your head, get out of that endless cycle of dead-end dates, reduce conflict, and build a deeply fulfilling, affirming relationship--all through highly actionable advice. Best of all, you will discover how amazing it feels to have your heart expanded by an abundance of love and compassion for your partner and yourself. <p/> Featuring compelling stories for real-life couples and insights from the foremost thought leaders and researchers in brain science, sexuality, psychotherapy, and neurobiology, <i>Radical Acceptance </i>illustrates that embracing your partner for exactly who they are will lead to a more harmonious relationship--and provide an unexpected path to your own personal transformation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A warm, honest approach to prioritizing your partner and creating true happiness in your relationship--and in yourself.
