This book is divided into parts including Befriend Yourself, Warm the Heart, Be at Peace with Others, Stand Up for Yourself, Speak Wisely, and Love the World。 Throughout, author Rick Hanson offers 50 brief thoughts on how to develop the many relationships in our lives。I found Making Great Relationships a bit underwhelming and thought it read more like a magazine article。 I was disappointed that opportunities to provide research-based advice were only offered as a referral to the author's previou This book is divided into parts including Befriend Yourself, Warm the Heart, Be at Peace with Others, Stand Up for Yourself, Speak Wisely, and Love the World。 Throughout, author Rick Hanson offers 50 brief thoughts on how to develop the many relationships in our lives。I found Making Great Relationships a bit underwhelming and thought it read more like a magazine article。 I was disappointed that opportunities to provide research-based advice were only offered as a referral to the author's previous books。 I think this book offers a primer in mindfulness and self-inquiry that would be beneficial for those newer to the practice, but experienced meditators and yogis will find it lacking。Thank you to Rodale Inc。 and NetGalley for providing me with an advance readers copy to review! 。。。more

Helpful and insightful。 Takes a Buddhist approach which is interesting。 You can learn a great deal from this book about relationships in general, not romantic relationships per say but everyday relationships work, friends etc。 good resource to read。 Thank you NetGalley!

This is quite good, and has lots of helpful ideas and suggestions。 I like the short chapters and concise info。 At the same time it doesn't seem meaty enough to address the deeper issues that may cause problems。 So I"m conflicted about that。 Nonetheless, this will be helpful for many readers。I really appreciate the free ARC for review!!
