very good

An Excellent Resource

This workbook is a valuable guide to improving couples' communication skills. It provides examples of the typical mistakes couples make when responding to each other and suggests ways to recognize and avoid those pitfalls. I particularly liked the emphasis on listening, as well as learning to respond to your partner in a constructive way. The exercises are a useful way for couples to start changing negative patterns in their communications. In sum, this is a great resource for anyone in a relationship.

Power of Two Workbook

Finally a workbook that is helpful and easy to follow. We found the fun yet challanging "homework" assignments for couples extremely helpful in enhancing our communication skills. These skills have helped promote win-win situations for both of us on a daily basis. This has definately helped our marriage. A must have for all married couples as well as a great gift idea for newlyweds.
