Psychologist Dr. Robin Smith reveals how to turn vows
made at the altar into realistic plans for a long and happy
marriage Dr. Robin Smith advises couples on how to
take the wedding vows that were made in earnest and in
innocence, to a level where they can be used to build a
happy, healthy, satisfying and long-lasting marriage.
Lies at the Altar is for couples who are planning
marriage, are newly married, or who have been married for
years. In Lies at the Altar: The Truth About
Great Marriages, Dr. Robin Smith addresses the unspoken
needs, unasked questions, outrageous expectations, and
hidden agendas that often linger beneath the surface of the
wedding vows and appear later to cause power struggles,
suffering, and feelings of hopelessness in marriages.
Dr. Smith discusses why it's important to have one's
"eyes wide open" in a marriage; how to write true vows to
live by; and why it's never too late to rewrite your vows.
She illustrates her advice with detailed stories from her
own life, as well as from couples that she has counseled.
And in her inspiring conclusion, she invites couples to
light up their lives by acknowledging each other as
individuals, each of whom lights a candle, and who lights a
third candle which represents "us". Calling "truth"
the secret ingredient of great marriages, Dr. Smith teaches
individuals and couples how to find the truth within
themselves and their partners, whether they are heading to
the altar, suffering in an unhappy marriage, divorced, or
simply want to bring more satisfaction and intimacy into
their relationship.
