Seven Principles is the “lite” version of The Art and Science of Love, yet still packs a powerful love punch. It is a good introduction to the world-famous Gottman relationship studies and methods that turned the world of couples therapy upside down. This workshop teaches couples to identify behaviors that is erodes love, and then how to replace them profoundly meaningful actions that have been proven to help couples deepen their physical, mental and emotional intimacies.

ART AND SCIENCE OF LOVE WORKSHOP COUPLE

 

“One of my regrets in life is that we didn’t attend this workshop early on in our marriage. It would have spared us a lot of unnecessary heartache. We’re already planning to return in 2 years and re-assess how we’ve done and what areas we can work on. We’re excited about the journey of our lives as a couple now.”
