As you work through the pillars you will tap into a life-changing energy that creates the greatest potential for ever-deepening love and fulfillment. Together you will build a soulful sanctuary where you can heal and strengthen your relationship into one that grows in joy and love. Dr. Glik has woven together spirituality, psychology, and practicality, offering exercises and quizzes that will help you to feel appreciated as you are, challenged to be your best, and closer as a couple.
