The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work

John M. Gottman and Nan Silver

A lasting marital relationship is achievable! It simply requires being aware of your thoughts and reactions toward your partner, as well as your actions not only in everyday life, but also during disagreements. By implementing some basic healthy behaviors, you can experience a harmonious connection with your spouse. Evaluate your knowledge about your spouse with these true/false statements. I can identify my partner’s closest friends. I am aware of my partner’s current major concerns. I can describe my partner’s outlook on life. I can name my partner’s preferred genre of music. Show consideration for your reaction to stress. A tensed body significantly hinders your problem-solving abilities, so take a short break until you have visibly calmed down before trying to resolve a disagreement with your spouse.
