Making Right Turns in Your Relationship

Book Review by: Dr_Tami_Brady    

Original Author: Myron D. Lewis, M.S.W.
Making Right Turns in Your Relationship is a relationship communication exercise book. The author states that every individual
has expectations of what a relationship should involve and how that relationship should look and feel. Unfortunately, couples rarely discuss these expectations and preconceived notions with their spouse. Therefore, when these individualized differences clash, each member of the couple expects the other person needs to conform to his or her way of thinking or doing. In other words, each member of the couple wants to win the fight. Making Right Turns in Your Relationship relays information on how to explore individual expectations and preconceived notions toward the goal of collaborating these individual ideas into a more balanced situation where the relationship wins. The key to this method is respectful and honest communication and personal introspection. To this end, this book contains important subjects such as how to accentuate caring aspects of behavior and how to create a common marriage vision. Couples are encouraged to read the text and complete the practice exercises given throughout the book. This task can either be completed separately or as a couple. However, in either case, each member of the couple is encourage to share his or her thoughts about his or her expectations while learning to realign his or her behavior towards a happier, healthier relationship.
