A Book of Secrets for Married Bliss
You have the power to improve your marriage in as little as two days or as long as two weeks. The advice in this book worked for me in two days and I was amazed at how magical the process was. This is a book of secrets for married bliss. Laura Doyle is an author who has been given credit for saving a lot of marriages. Her goal is to empower women so they can vanquish the awful threat of divorce which can lead to emotional anguish, poverty and loneliness.In Laura Doyle’s own marriage she had reached a stage in her marriage where she was lonely, there was no laughter and long intimate discussions. What to do? This was the stage at which the six intimacy skills were born. Laura Doyle decided to ask other married women what their secret was. When she tried the ideas she had more fun and stopped wasting her time on emotional turmoil.Some of the ideas in this book are very easy to implement immediately. You will be amazed at what you hear your husband say and I found that my husband was asking for me to do the things this book told me to do. I tried one idea immediately and it worked beyond all belief! So I kept reading. The truth is what Laura Doyle teaches is things that make you seem like the ideal wife and make you highly likeable. By giving your husband compliments and telling him what makes you happy you open up an entire new world of possibilities. Men really do want to make you happy!So by the time I’d read the second chapter I’d already tried out one main idea and it worked. I learned a new valuable skill that I can use daily. And who wouldn’t like a book with a chapter title like this: “How to Get More Gifts, Compliments and Help”.Some of the things this book teaches include:What can you do to make your husband become more thoughtful?How can you be more feminine and attractive to your husband?What makes men want to earn more income and be more ambitious?How can you show respect to a man in a way he understands?What can you do to stop the verbal abuse in your marriage?So instead of complaining to your friends and family that your husband is not changing and you are looking at divorce options, read this book and become the agent of change that will save your marriage. I’ve read over 120 books on marriage and relationships and this book taught me the most interesting and powerful things I could do in a matter of days.One thing I learned during reading this book was to trust my husband more. But it was difficult when we were driving and I noticed the gas was on empty. I held in my comment about getting gas until I nearly exploded. lol Finally I pointed at the next gas station and loudly declared: “Gas Station!” Of course my husband instantly said: “Don’t you trust me?” So it is somewhat challenging to keep quiet when you are full of ideas for improvement and help. So instantly I said: “I’d be happier if the gas tank was full.” This got a positive comment back instead of an argument.So if you are in the mode of criticizing, nagging, complaining and trying to control your husband, this book has a lot to teach you about trust, intimacy and loving interactions. Your communication will improve as you will now know what to say and how to say it. This book gives a basic script for dealing with men in general.To implement the ideas in this book will require some effort and thought, especially if you are already frustrated and have been pushed to your breaking point. But you actually have had the power to have the relationship you want all this time! Read this book, start saying the right things and I can promise you, you will see a change in a matter of days. Suddenly your husband will become the person you married in the first place! I loved this book so much that I’m going to read it a second time and try more ideas. We women really do have all the power and just have to learn how to use that power for good!~The Rebecca ReviewP.S. It has been a few weeks since I started to use this information seriously and it has reduced arguments to a bare minimum. Some days there is not even a disagreement. Like magic I tell you! I’m going to read this for a third time!

This book accidentally improved my marriage.
I’ve always thought of myself as one of the lucky ones. I actually like my husband. We enjoy being around each other. So, you might be surprised that I bought this book. I sure was.It practically fell into my lap. I asked my psychologist friend for a marriage counsellor referral. Another friend of mine was looking for recommendations. My psychologist friend mentioned Laura Doyle’s podcast, The Empowered Wife.Before suggesting it to my friend in need, I thought I’d give a listen to see if it was something I could happily recommend. The interviews blew my mind!The six skills are straight-forward, logical and work miracles. They remind me a lot of Al-Anon principles in that the reader is guided to focus on her side of the street. I bought the book. Easy to read. The author has a very likeable writing voice.Some of the explanations on how husbands perceive wives’ actions were eye-opening. Just for fun and because I love to learn, I decided to experiment with the six skills in my marriage.It’s been four days since getting the book and I am astounded by the changes in our marriage. IN FOUR DAYS! Imagine what gems await us as I finish reading the book and implementing its ideas.My husband is paying more attention to me. He’s apologizing with ease. He’s thanking me for the things I do. I am more compassionate, more relaxed and having way more fun. It’s absolutely amazing that this book can even help a marriage with a strong foundation.FYI, I’m a modern woman. I have been married for 21 years. I think this book is great for all types of people. Hippy chicks. Strong women. Trad wives. There’s a place for all of us here.

Wholesome wise and worthwhile.A little slanted as we don’t see those for whom it did not work

Great book. Wish I read this years ago. It’s surprising how we misinterpret our husband’s words and actions. I’m seeing things from a very different perspective. Hopefully it works.

I highly recommend the book if you feel kinda stuck in your marriage. I don’t agree with all of it but it definitely gives you a better insight and a different way to see your marriage. It is easy to read.

I read surrendered wife and this one and they really make you see things another way than the main stream does and its so refreshing
