We would like
to recommend some books that you might find useful
as a resource. The list will be revised from time
to time, so we suggest you bookmark the page for
future reference. Our current suggestions
includes:
- The
Art of Loving
Erich
Fromm
Harper & Row, 1956
The
Couple Enrichment
Approach™
has incorporated some of the core ideas
presented in Fromm's book, namely that love is
an art, an activity that requires learning and
mastery through disciplined practice.
- Passionate
Marriage
Keeping Love & Intimacy Alive in Committed
Relationships
David
Schnarch
Fitzhenry & Whiteside Ltd., 1997
Dr. David Schnarch's book is a daring and
pioneering work that challenges couples to work
together on the sexual and emotional blocks that
hold them back from total satisfaction with each
other. Dr. David Schnarch talks about love and
intimacy in committed relationships, from the
point of view of systems theory and, in
particular, the concept of "differentiation".
This concept is similar to "related
individuality", a notion that is integral to
The
Couple Enrichment
Approach™.
[The openly direct and explicit description
of sexuality in this book may be offensive to
some people.]
- Understanding
Human Nature
Alfred
Adler, 1927
An introduction to the world of Adlerian
psychology with an underlying view that human
beings would live together more satisfactorily
if they had more knowledge about human
nature.
- Count
Your Blessings: The Healing Power of Gratitude
and Love
Dr.
John F. Demartini, Element Books, 1997
This book teaches how to turn any stressful
situation into an inspiring, life-affirming
learning experience. Dr. Demartini reveals the
connection between health and state of mind, the
power of dreams and the importance of
visualization.
- Staying
Sane in a Crazy World
A Guide to Rational Living
Sherwin
T. Wine
The Centre For New Thinking, 1995
This book offers a provocative response to the
moral confusion and failure of nerve which
characterises our times. Rabbi Wine describes
ten steps to sanity. He challenges the reader to
pursue a life without illusions and to confront
an absurd and unjust world with reason, dignity
and courage.
