Reddit mentions of Conscious Loving: The Journey to Co-Commitment

I’ve been reading this one https://www.amazon.com/Conscious-Loving-Co-Commitment-Gay-Hendricks/dp/0553354116

There’s no god speak but there are a few weird analogies and stereotyping of behavior that feels slightly off to me.

A little different but incredibly fascinating and could help you was “ The Courage to be Disliked” which sets out Adler psychology and encourages you to consider your self, your behavior and why anyone behaves the way they do, without pointing fingers at those who are “broken”. I truly love this book and have it on my phone so have highlighted it to death. I like books that don’t tell me I’m doing things wrong, but offer me interesting perspective shifts to act in ways that work better for me.

Also equally weird but same gist in terms of personal responsibility (that plays into whether or not your enter into “codependent” relationships) is The Four Agreements. My therapist and flatmate both recommended this book, despite potentially being inaccessible with its black magic talk. Give it a go, though!

Yes, press charges. File for divorce. It will get ugly. Accept your fate, move forward.

And while all of this is happening, read the book Conscious Loving ( http://www.amazon.com/Conscious-Loving-Co-Commitment-Gay-Hendricks/dp/0553354116/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1268937439&sr=8-1 ). It will help you to learn your patterns, decipher your feelings, and find a source of love based on co-commitment, respect, creativity, and love. One of the best relationship books I have ever read (and I have read a ton).
