The 5 Practices gives the reader an opportunity to weed out and take responsibility for limiting or negative habits while allowing them to learn and adopt new and healthier practices with their partner. Diving beneath the symptoms most therapies focus on, he helps couples develop a deeper understanding of the wounds that brought them together and how they show up in their relationships. In his work, Lair Torrent, a licensed marriage and family therapist, brings together concepts and tools that can actually help couples heal for the long haul. But we are not born knowing how to make a relationship work, any more than we are born knowing how to file taxes or buy insurance, and there are no classes in high school or college that teach us how to do this. Relationships have fallen into the category of things we should know how to do. For far too long it has been assumed that we should innately understand how to love one another. We should treat them like we treat anything that we want to succeed, by giving them time and attention. Our relationships have to be a daily practice if we want them to thrive. A master class in relationship repair and connection.Īt its core, this book delivers an inconvenient truth.
