Description

Seven Principles for Making Marriage

The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is a widely respected and research-backed guide to building and sustaining a healthy, long-lasting marriage. Written by Dr. John Gottman, one of the most influential relationship researchers and therapists in the world, the book presents seven core principles that are proven to help couples improve communication, resolve conflict, deepen intimacy, and strengthen their emotional connection.

What makes this book stand out is its scientific foundation—Gottman draws on decades of research from his famous “Love Lab” at the University of Washington, where he studied thousands of couples and accurately predicted (with over 90% accuracy) which marriages would succeed or fail.

The seven principles outlined in the book include:

  1. Enhancing your love maps – truly knowing your partner’s world.

  2. Nurturing fondness and admiration – focusing on the positive aspects of your partner.

  3. Turning toward each other instead of away – engaging in everyday moments of connection.

  4. Letting your partner influence you – sharing power and decision-making.

  5. Solving solvable problems – learning effective conflict resolution strategies.

  6. Overcoming gridlock – handling perpetual problems with understanding and compromise.

  7. Creating shared meaning – building a life together with shared values, rituals, and dreams.

The book includes self-assessments, quizzes, exercises, and practical tips that couples can do together to build trust and understanding. Whether you’re newlyweds, married for decades, or even struggling, this book offers tools that are easy to apply and incredibly effective.
