Book Description

Love Potions for Healthy Relationships Nancy Landrum has written a series of transformational books that deliver gigantic wallops of insight. Each volume in the series covers a particular ingredient present in a healthy relationship. These powerful truths will demystify how healthy relationships work. Her wisdom is harvested from a passionate, lifetime search for the secret to loving and being loved. The examples from her years of relationship coaching make reading these volumes engaging as well as inspiring. Each chapter ends with perceptive recipes to help the reader add that particular ingredient to his or her love potion. In Savory Safeguards, the third volume of her Love Potions for Healthy Relationships series, Nancy Landrum maps out simple and effective strategies for safely managing the strong emotions that sometimes derail otherwise loving relationships. By her own examples, she delivers abundant hope that anyone can learn to make his or her emotions work for them rather than see out-of-control emotions damage or destroy personal peace and treasured relationships. In addition, Savory Safeguards outlines a simple but powerful plan for resolving differences so that all parties have their core concerns satisfied. The delightful outcome is that issues stay resolved, rather than resurfacing when the solution breaks down. Since all relationships have issues, Savory Safeguards is an essential component for any healthy relationship. Overpowering emotions? Recurrent problems?

We heartily recommend reading- and savoring - this book! -Don & Alex Flecky, co-authors of CoupleTalk, www.coupletalk.com I often hear couples say, We just dont know how to communicate. I beg to differ, I think couples are definitely communicating, but how they are communicating is impacting their relationship in a profound ways. Nancy Landrum has done a fabulous job of breaking down how couples can communicate in a way that builds up their relationship instead of tearing it down. LOVED the way she incorporated the tools all of us need to help marriages thrive! -Julie M.
