How to Get the Love You Want


Listen Later

Why did you fall in love with your spouse?  Why do people fall in love with the person they fall in love?
And perhaps even more importantly for our time together, why do those same relationships cause such pain? How can love turn painful and hurtful?
Harville Hendrix and Helen Hunt have been on the forefront of helping hurting marriages for decades.  In 1988, their seminal book, Getting The Love You Want, came out to great acclaim.  It was an international best-seller.
In that book (now revised), Harville and Helen reveal their Imago Theory of why we fall in love, and why it can either be hurtful or healing.  They also provide exercises for couples to explore their own Imago relating, to help with healing and health.
Some time ago, Harville and Helen gave me some of their time to share their thoughts and direction on how to create a loving relationship.  This interview was originally part of a special program.  But I decided to share it with you, because of the powerful information they shared.
Listen below to discover how understanding your Imago and help heal your marriage.
