Hold
Me Tight
Seven Conversations for a Lifetime of Love
Dr.
Sue Johnson
The
Message of Hold Me Tight is simple: Forget about learning
how to argue better, analyzing your early childhood, making grand
romantic gestures, or experimenting with new sexual positions.
Instead, get to the emotional underpinnings of your relationship
by recognizing that you are emotionally attached to and dependent
on your partner in much the same way that a child is on a parent
for nurturing, soothing, and protection. Dr. Johnson teaches that
the way to enhance or save a relationship is to be open, attuned,
and responsive to each other and to reestablish emotional connection.
With this is mind, she focuses on key moments in a relationshipfrom
Recognizing the Demon Dialogues to Forgiving Injuriesand
uses them as touch points for seven healing conversations. These
conversations give you insight into the defining moments in your
relationship and guide you in reshaping these moments to create
a secure and lasting bond.
Through stories from Dr. Johnson's practice, illuminating advice,
and practical exercises, you will learn how to nurture, protect,
and grow your relationship, ensuring a lifetime of love.
