The Secret to Healing your Marriage

I am writing to you on behalf of my friend and colleague, Dr. Deb 
Hirschhorn. Did you know that it is possible to fall in love again 
even when a marriage has gone very bad? Dr. Deb believes – and it’s 
been proven - that it is.

Before I say more, let me tell you that Dr. Deb has my complete 
endorsement. Her approach is unique: She’s all about healing a 
marriage so it can be better than it ever was or would be if 
left alone.

Her new book, The Healing is Mutual: Marriage Empowerment Tools 
to Rebuild Trust and Respect—Together, being launched, today, 
NOVEMBER 13, goes beyond “saving your marriage”  – it’s looking 
to help couples fall in love again. 

According to Dr. Deb, a Marriage and Family Therapist, healing—
not divorce—is the only good alternative to a bad marriage. See 

You, personally, may be blessed with a good, happy, affirming 
marriage, a marriage of love and respect. If you’re not this 
will surely be of interest to you. Even if your marriage is 
“okay” – let’s make it better!

Besides that, unfortunately, you probably know many people struggling 
in their marriages. Here is a chance to help them to transform their 
marriage. 

When you go to http://theHealingIsMutual.com/download you’ll be 
astonished by the comments and feedback that are there. 

According to New York Times best-selling author and marketing whiz, 
Peggy McColl, “This may be as big as or bigger than Men are from 
Mars, Women are from Venus– it’s that good and that powerful.

THIS MAY BE THE BIGGEST BK ON HEALING THAT YOU HAVE EVER READ!!”

Please resend this message to your list so everyone is included. 
Have them visit Dr. Deb’s launch page 
to find out why divorce is a rotten option and why a book can 
be better help than a counselor to start their marriage over – 
with the same spouse!

Oh, one more thing. There are dozens of free gifts on that page 
from all Dr. Deb’s colleagues (including one from me) because we 
believe in what she is doing. We want to see this book out there 
helping people. Go check out http://theHealingIsMutual.com/download 
and see all the positive feedback this book has already received 
from people who used it.

And if you don’t want to send the email, buy the book for your 
friends. Leave a copy for them. They will be forever grateful.

You are seeing that The Healing Is Mutual can improve your marriage. 
It’s clearly worth the small investment of less than two movie tickets. 

Here is a word from Dr. Deb herself…..

                 -----------------------

Hi there,
I’m Dr. Deb and if there is one thing I want you to know about me, 
it’s that my whole approach as a Marriage and Family Therapist to 
helping couples is NOT about finger-pointing; it’s NOT about 
“diagnosing” the “problem” and it’s NOT about just “communicating.”

My approach is about building on your strengths, being understanding 
of what you’ve been through, and giving you solutions that are 
emotional, spiritual, intellectual, and behavioral. You can pick and 
choose which ones are the best fit for you, but they are all geared 
to healing. Healed people have space for happiness.

I believe that you have suffered and now it’s time to heal. 

I want to help you heal from your past and your present. I want to 
help you and your partner to create a beautiful future. I want to help 
you to fall in love again. It is possible. Go read why on my page 

My very best wishes to you!
Dr. Deb
                ------------------------

So there you have it. And let me say just one more thing before I 
send this off to you…

I visited Dr. Deb’s website to see all she is giving away. And I 
am telling you … I was AMAZED! You need to check this out for 
yourself, for sure.
Dr. Deb is clearly over delivering. And when you see all that she 
is doing for her readers on Launch Day today, you will certainly agree.

What are we going to do for Christmas???

 

A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York the day before Thanksgiving and says,"I hate to ruin your day, but I have to tell you that your mother and I are divorcing; forty-five years of misery is enough.

"Pop, what are you talking about?" the son screams. We can't stand the sight of each other any longer," the father says. "We're sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you call your sister in Chicago and tell her."

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone. "Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take care of this,"

She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at her father, "You are NOT getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?" and hangs up.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay," he says, "they're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their own way. What are we going to do for Christmas?"

One sad truth I've found (unconditional love is sick!)

There's one sad truth in life I've found 
While journeying east and west - 
The only folks we really wound 
Are those we love the best. 
We flatter those we scarcely know, 
We please the fleeting guest, 
And deal full many a thoughtless blow 
To those who love us best. 
Ella Wheeler Wilcox

I cannot even calculate the times I've witnessed this among my clients.

Nor how many times I've heard:

"She's so nice to her friends and so awful to me."

"He's a perfect gentleman with other women and hateful toward me."

Sadly - tragically - we often treat the ones we love worst.

Why does this happen?

Well... with friends we know we are loved conditionally.

They won't put up with endless amounts of crap.

And we want to keep our friends.

So we behave well around them.

Plus we don't see it when they don't put the cap on the toothpaste...

Get sick, get grouchy, have a rotten attitude, let thoughtless words fly...

No, we behave well with our friends,

Because we know they can bail out on us easily.

We think our partners should accept us unconditionally.

Love us "no matter what."

I have news for you.

THAT'S THE WRONG WAY TO BEHAVE IN A MARRIAGE.

You need to be on even BETTER behavior in your marriage than you are with your friends.

You have a sacred duty to not take your partner for granted.

Think I'm being overly dramatic?

I'm not.

Take a look at the vows you professed when you got married.

Did you take such vows with your friends?

IDTS!  (I don't think so). Intended to be said with dripping sarcasm :-)

No, you took those vows with your spouse.

Hey YOU get back on track with your marriage.

Confused, concerned, need a little education in how?

You came to the right place.  Just smack a big red button here:

Remember, we all stumble, every one of us...

 Remember, we all stumble, every one of us. That's why it's a comfort to go hand in hand. 
Emily Kimbrough

Remember your honeymoon?

Remember those promises you made to yourself...

That you would be different from other couples

That you would be different from your parents

That YOUR marriage would be special and unlike those "statistics"

That you'd always find a way to be happy

???

God bless you if even one of those areas lasted intact for more than a year.

I remember being at a friend's house.

His son was acting up.

He yelled something at his son.

Then he looked at us adults at the table and said,

"I swore I'd never say that, it sounded just like my father."

Well...

All that did was make him a human being.

Before that he thought he was truly different from his father.

THAT is the beginning of maturity.

When you realize you're pretty much just like everyone else.

And your partner is too.

And your job is to recognize that you will make errors.

And your partner will too.

And the thing to do is to forgive and move forward in love and gratitude.

I'm not saying no one steps over a line that can't be crossed.

Yes, that happens.

But lots of times it's just that we stumble.

It might seem like a big thing until you get it into perspective.

That perspective says "love a flawed human being."

Flawed Human Beings are all they have at the People Store.

When you pick one, you don't know the flaws at first.

Once you discover them - in yourself and in your partner - it's time for a little education.

Education in how to manage all that "reality" of you and your partner.

Let me use my 30 years of experience in marriage counseling education to help you.

Fast, easy, efficient:

did you meet each other in a past life?

 You meet someone and you're sure you were lovers in a past life. 
After two weeks with them, you realize why you haven't 
kept in touch for the last two thousand years. 
Al Cleathen

Of course that's a rather sarcastic joke, but...

Unfortunately it's how many people feel.

Did you really meet in a past life?

I have no idea, but it can sure feel like it.

Let's pretend you did.

Wouldn't it be your job in "this life" to fix things?

So you didn't have to keep repeating the problems infinitely?

And let's face the facts.

As far as we REALLY know, you have only one life to live.

You won't get a second chance.

I strongly suggest you fix your marriage today.

"Oh but Dr. Max I'm going to divorce this one and marry a new one."

Sorry Charlie, you're going to make the same mistakes with the new one.

Fix things today.

I will help you get started fast and effectively right now.
