Fun, practical, and easy to learn, Adventures in Marriage is appropriate for couples at ANY age or stage.

The marriage communication program is designed to reach couples across the spectrum – from happy and highly motivated to struggling and highly stressed.

Benefits of AIM:

• Recognize when your marriage  communication style is more of a problem than the actual problem you are facing
  
• Develop the ability to feel genuine empathy for your partner instead of secret resentment
  
• Express yourself clearly so that your thoughts and feelings can be recognized and understood without causing your spouse to feel defensive, resentful, overwhelmed, manipulated or inadequate
  
• Avoid the mind reading that so often leads to misunderstanding between couples, and learn to avoid assumptions
  
• Express and accept anger without destroying love
  
• Fight in such a way that you resolve the issues at hand and actually feel closer to your spouse
  
• Acknowledge and enjoy the differences between you and your spouse, rather than seeing him/her as a threat
  
• Understand what went wrong in previous relationships or what is going wrong now
