Seven principles for a successful relationship

This course has been adapted from the work of John Gottman, and is based on 25 years of research into what makes relationships either blossom, or shrivel.

Gottman found that passion, romance and sex, stem from having a solid friendship. He adds that couples who do a better job at repairing the damage from disagreements seem happier and, in the long run, seem to have fewer conflicts. This course explores his seven principles and how they can enhance your relationship.
