Description
Snap Strategies for Couples is based on an alternative approach to prevailing advice that every issue has to be talked about at length, and that partners need to understand each other’s every motivation and thought process. Instead, these tips get right to the daily difficulties that cause the fights, addressing unhelpful behaviors and giving solutions to move past them. These clear and sensible strategies offer couples an alternative to lengthy, expensive, emotionally charged therapy sessions, which can sometimes cause as many issues as they’re meant to solve.
Staheli and Schwartz cover all manner of problems, from everyday bickering to serious differences of opinion, giving readers guidance throughout the course of a relationship. Helpful for both longtime couples who have hit relationship snags and for newly committed partners looking to build healthy habits, Snap Strategies has positive, useful fixes that everyone can use.

I'm not sure this self help book could have been more timely for me. Snap Strategies For Couples by Lana Staheli and Pepper Schwartz is an awesome compilation of stories and advice.
I'm 38 and have been married for 15 years. Like all couples we've been through a lot. We've made it through caring for my Mom through her shocking cancer diagnosis, then her rapid decline and eventual loss. We've made it through the death of my father who had a sudden heart attack. We've made through my 4 year battle with prescription pain pill addiction. (I've been clean 4 years)
What's crazy is we almost split up this year over simple things. Example, I feel like he doesn't know me.he feels like I don't listen. I cannot tell you how many AHA! Moments I had reading this insightful book. I highlighted sections I felt I could work on in yellow and in Orange for passages I wanted my husband to read. And he did read. I believe you too will be surprised at common some of the are when you may feel you are the only ones.
One of gems that really sticks in my head is" That's just the one I am, is a relationship destroyer" How true!
I'll be going back and referring to this for years to come. One thing this book showed me is how much my man and father of my loves me. Why? Because he's willing to read it too.
Thank you Netgalley for this copy in exchange for an honest review.

Snap Strategies should be on every couples' bookshelf whether you are having problems or not. The tips in this book are well written and are not hard to follow which gives you and your spouse an easy tool to fix your problems. Communication, or lack thereof, is one of the biggest problems most marriages have and this book helps get that line of communication open and back on track. Even if your marriage isn't suffering from any issues, this is still a good book to read because it helps you improve upon how you communicate with your spouse.
