So when couples cant agree on how-or whether-to make their marriage better, many give up or settle for a less-than-satisfying marriage (or think the only way out is divorce).Fortunately, there is an alternative. What distinguishes Reillys book is that she says a warring couple dont have to agree on the goal of staying together; it takes one person changing, not both, to make a marriage work (The New York Times).Marriage and family therapist Winifred Reilly has this message for struggling partners: Take the lead. Doing so is effective-and powerful. Through Reillys own story of reclaiming her now nearly forty-year marriage, along with anecdotes from many clients shes worked with, youll learn how to:-Focus on your own behaviors and change them in ways that make you feel good about yourself and your marriage-Take a firm stand for what truly matters to you without arguing, cajoling, or resorting to threats-Identify the big picture issues at the basis of your repetitive fights-and learn how to unhook from them-Be less reactive, especially in the face of your spouses provocations-Develop the strength and stamina to be the sole agent of changeCombining psychological theory, practical advice, and personal narrative, It Takes One to Tango is a wise and uplifting (Dr. Ellyn Bader, Director of The Couples Institute) guide that will empower those who choose to take a bold, proactive approach to creating a loving and lasting marriage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n        ","brand":"Miakarts Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49677751419120,"sku":"NEW1501125869","price":18.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/ethereallybeautiful.com\/products\/it-takes-one-to-tango-how-i-rescued-my-marriage-with-almos-1","provider":"Ethereally Beautiful","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
